Abstract

The article focuses on the ways to conquer the shame and stigma attached to certain words related to mental illness. It states that people living with mental illness are thought to be out of control and dangerous, and describes how words such as schizophrenia, depression, and bipolar disorder can be de-stigmatized. It informs that the author along with Fountain House, a community in New York City, are launching the campaign, Bring Change 2 Mind Fear, to help people talk about mental illness.
