Choose a stigma you may have about mental health or a particular disorder.

Labeling and Stigmas

Choose a stigma you may have about mental health or a particular disorder. In a 2-3 page paper, research the history of its origin, how it became a negative stigma, whether the negative association has diminished over time and become more accepted, and the consequences of such labels if not understood by the individual, his/her family and society.

You must use and cite at least two different scholarly sources to support your work. Include a support group or community resource and how they educate and provide intervention or treatment for chosen “label.”
