Popis: | Psychiatric disorders carry a stigma that usually leads to discrimination and resulting problems in many walks of life. People with mental illness thus have difficulties getting a job, finding housing, and making (or keeping) friends or partners. The stigma adds misery to the life of persons with a mental disorder. It affects their families as well as professionals and others who provide them with care. |
