What
These resources explore the impact of mental health stigma and discrimination on young people. Featuring Dr. Petra Gronholm (London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine), Beth Gallimore (King’s College London), and Sharon and Earle Dowse, it examines key topics like public stigma, self-stigma, family stigma, and structural stigma.
The film highlights the consequences of stigma, including emotional struggles, bullying, exclusion, academic challenges, and long-term effects on development. It also explores the role of family, peers, culture, religion, and social media in shaping mental health perceptions.
