Stigma is a sign or sense of disgrace that sets someone apart from others.
"Stigma causes people to feel ashamed of something that is out of their control, prevents people from seeking help and even takes lives" says Mary Giliberti, CEO of NAMI. "We do have a cure, and that is compassion and understanding, we need to talk openly and raise our voices, so we can put an end to the fear and shame and cure stigma once and for all. Help cure the stigma of mental illness.
