An estimated 46.6 million Americans suffer from some form of mental illness. However, mental health stigma persists and views mental illness as a sign of weakness. This stigma creates stereotypes that people with mental illnesses are unpredictable, dangerous, or contagious. In reality, these stereotypes are incorrect and harmful. The stigma also leads to discrimination that denies people with mental illness basic rights and healthcare. To reduce stigma, people need to educate themselves on mental illness in order to avoid ignorance, stereotypes, and contributing to discrimination.

- 1 in 5 Canadians will experience a mental illness in their lifetime, with depression and anxiety the most common. Suicide is a leading cause of death.
- There are not enough mental health services and providers in Canada to meet the growing demand as issues are brought "out of the shadows".
- Stigma remains a major barrier to treatment, with myths that mental illnesses mean someone is violent, weak, or lazy. Collaboration is needed between providers, families, and communities to improve support systems and recovery outcomes.

Mental health day ppt 2019
The document discusses World Mental Health Day which is observed annually on October 10th. It notes that mental health is defined as a state of well-being where one can cope with life's stresses and realize their abilities. Causes of mental illness include organic conditions, heredity, and social factors. Every 40 seconds someone dies by suicide globally. The objectives of World Mental Health Day are to improve awareness of suicide as a public health issue and reduce stigma. It encourages individuals to take 40 seconds of action to start a conversation about mental health or suicide prevention.
Implications of the Coronavirus Pandemic for Mental Health
A certified consultant of the Academy of Cognitive Therapy, Dr. Lisa Napolitano is the Founder and Director of CBT/DBT Associates in New York City. Lisa Napolitano, PhD, provides innovative mindfulness-based treatments to high functioning individuals (such as attorneys and executives) who seek to attain their potential through efficient stress management. In this work, she treats various psychological challenges including anxiety, stress, and emotional imbalance.
During the early days of the coronavirus pandemic, when the coronavirus was first declared a threat, fear arose in much of the population. Aside from the fear of contracting the virus, many people also worried about the crisis negatively affecting their day to day lives. One such situation that has come to pass for many is unemployment as a result of the quarantine. The World Health Organization encouraged people to pay increased attention to both their physical and mental health, since the sudden adjustments could create a significant impact on a person's health.
In mid-July of 2020, the KFF Tracking poll reported that 53 percent of adults in the United States reported suffering negative impacts from the crisis, particularly as a result of stress. Sleeping and eating difficulties represent the majority of reported symptoms. People with chronic conditions generally suffered worsened states due to worry. There has also been a notable increase in alcohol consumption and substance use.
World mental health day
Depression is a significant global public health issue and the theme of this year's World Mental Health Day. Some key points:
- Depression is the leading cause of disability worldwide and will become the leading cause of disease burden by 2030.
- Around 350 million people currently suffer from depression. Treatment gaps are large, with less than 50% of cases receiving treatment globally.
- Risk factors include female gender, low socioeconomic status, family history, and exposure to violence. Left untreated, depression increases the risk of suicide.
- Effective treatments exist but many barriers prevent treatment, including lack of resources, trained providers, and stigma. Primary care-based treatment with medication and psychotherapy can effectively manage depression.

Mental Illness And The Aging Presentation
Mental illness is often misdiagnosed or left untreated in the aging population due to the misconception that it is a normal part of aging. This can lead to increased suicide rates, social issues if left untreated, and a lack of treatment options. Proper screening for mental illness during regular doctor's visits through questionnaires can help identify issues earlier and refer patients to specialists. Increased education is needed for both patients and practitioners regarding mental illness and treatment in the elderly.
World mental health day 2010
This document discusses World Mental Health Day and promoting mental health. It notes that around 450 million people suffer from mental disorders and mental health is determined by socioeconomic, biological, and environmental factors. The WHO aims to increase awareness of mental health issues and encourage treatment. Promoting mental health involves early childhood support, socioeconomic empowerment programs, and community development initiatives. Integrating mental and physical healthcare using a holistic model is important for treatment.
world mental health day 2011
Mental illnesses are highly prevalent worldwide but most countries allocate less than 2% of their health budgets to mental health. Effective and low-cost treatments are available but there is a treatment gap of over 75% in many low- and middle-income countries. Investing in mental health is important for several reasons: the burden of mental illness is huge and costs societies enormous amounts, mental health is essential for economic development, and some interventions have been shown to be highly cost-effective "best buys" that can reduce future health costs. Without adequate investment in mental health services and supports, individuals and societies cannot reach their full potential.
Legal & ethical issues provisions and programmes for elderly

World Mental Health Day 2016
World Mental Health Day is observed annually on October 10th to raise awareness about mental health issues and mobilize efforts for mental health support globally. This year's theme focuses on "psychological first aid", referring to basic pragmatic support provided by those in helping roles like healthcare workers or emergency responders to people experiencing acute distress. The WHO's 2013-2020 Comprehensive Mental Health Action Plan aims to strengthen leadership and services for mental health through community-based support, promotion, prevention strategies, and improved information systems.
Depression
Depression affects people worldwide and its prevalence has increased by 50% between 1990 and 2013. Close to 10% of the world's population suffers from depression or anxiety. Depression causes mental anguish and makes even simple tasks difficult, potentially damaging relationships and careers. It is characterized by persistent sadness, loss of interest in activities, inability to function daily, and other symptoms like changes in appetite, sleep, energy levels and concentration. Risk factors include poverty, unemployment, illness, and substance abuse. While untreated depression can prevent people from working or engaging socially, effective treatments include therapy, medication, exercise, nutrition and social support which can help manage the condition.
the social determinants of mental illness
This document discusses addressing the social determinants of mental illness and flipping the approach to mental health on its head. It makes four key points: (1) Most factors influencing mental well-being are outside the traditional health system; (2) Upstream social and economic factors matter more than downstream interventions; (3) All the proposed determinants are complex systems that interact; and (4) The default is to focus on symptoms over addressing root causes. It argues for a holistic, multi-sector approach to mental health that tackles issues like debt, employment, housing, and education.
Stigma Skills Workshop
The document discusses conceptualizing stigma using a 5-component model of stigma proposed by Link and Phelan (2001). The components are discrimination, status loss, separation, stereotyping, and labeling. It is noted that the components do not need to occur in a specific sequence for stigma to be present. Examples are provided to illustrate how stigma can occur through social processes even without direct discrimination of individuals. The psychology of both the stigmatized and stigmatizing individuals is examined. Various research on stigma related to HIV/AIDS is summarized. Educational approaches and strategies for addressing stigma using the model are explored.
Multiple personalities
Multiple Personalities
Multiple Personalities
Multiple personalities is a rare mental disorder in which an individual's personality appears to be separated by two or more specific personalities, all being connectable to that of a normal individual.
Incidence
Statistics show that the rate of DID occurrences are roughly .01% to 1% of the general population.
-More than 1/3 of people say that they feel as if they are watching themselves in a movie at times, and 7% of the population may have undiagnosed dissociative disorder.
Causes
The causes of multiple personalities disorder is controversial. The debate of many different hypothesis include:
-Could possibly be a reaction to a trauma.
-An innate ability to dissociate easily.
-Repeated episodes of severe physical or sexual abuse
as a child.
-The lack of supportive or comforting people to counteract
abusive relationships.
-The influence of other relatives with dissociative
symptoms or disorders.
Symptoms
According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, symptoms include "the presence or two or more distinct identities or personality traits"that alternate control of the individuals behavior, accompanied by the inability to recall personal information beyond what is expected through normal forgetfulness.
-Amnesia
-Depersonalization
-Derealization
-Identity Disturbances
Diagnosis
There is not real way to determine whether or not a person has DID. Many physicians have different outlooks on what DID is and what determines if a patient has the disorder or not. Most are misdiagnosed as depressed. But the average DID patient is in the mental health care system for 6 to 7 years before being diagnosed as a person with DID.
-The criteria, according to the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, require that an adult be recurrently controlled by two or more discrete personalities, accompanied my memory lapses for important information that is not caused by alcohol, drugs, or medications.

Mental Health in a Failed American System
Recent tragic events like Sandy Hook, Seattle Pacific University, and the DC Navy Yard shooting have propelled issues in the mental health system to the forefront of our minds. Many of us continue to struggle with the reality that crimes, violent acts, and even murders are occurring almost weekly, perhaps even daily. We struggle with understanding why and how such evil can continue to elude us. Aren't our schools protected and prepared for tragedies like that of Sandy Hook Elementary School? Aren't our police trained and ready for catastrophes involving mental illness? Can't our mental health professionals cure the sick? All of these questions swarm through the minds and hearts of people everywhere, including those, such as myself, who work in the field of psychology.
The answers are hidden beneath a facade of control in our hospitals, clinics, and schools. The truth is that we live in a failed system that lacks the necessary tools to protect society from evil, from illness that controls the mind and consciousness of some of our fellow citizens. Because of this, it is important that families understand severe and untreated mental illness, while maintaining a balanced perspective. While the majority of individuals with mental illness do not intend to harm anyone, there is a great number of cases in which homicide or violence and aggression is likely.
For those who have questions about our failed system, this presentation is for you.
Problems of well being
Mental health issues like anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and bipolar disorder are caused by chemical imbalances in the brain. The document discusses several mental disorders and how they affect those suffering from them.

While mental health issues are serious, increased awareness and understanding are helping to reduce the stigma around conditions like depression.
CSI ppt presentation
Mental illness is a major health issue affecting 1 in 5 Canadians. It encompasses a variety of conditions that interrupt mood and behavior and can make daily life difficult. While mental illnesses have many contributing factors like stress, abuse, and poverty, there are also many myths surrounding mental illness.

All of these questions swarm through the minds and hearts of people everywhere, including those, such as myself, who work in the field of psychology.
The answers are hidden beneath a facade of control in our hospitals, clinics, and schools. The truth is that we live in a failed system that lacks the necessary tools to protect society from evil, from illness that controls the mind and consciousness of some of our fellow citizens. Because of this, it is important that families understand severe and untreated mental illness, while maintaining a balanced perspective. While the majority of individuals with mental illness do not intend to harm anyone, there is a great number of cases in which homicide or violence and aggression is likely.
For those who have questions about our failed system, this presentation is for you.

Here are some ways social media can negatively impact mental health:
- Comparison: It's easy to compare your own life to the highlight reels people post online, which can lead to feelings of inadequacy. The curated lives people portray are often not an accurate reflection of reality.
- FOMO (fear of missing out): Constantly seeing updates about what friends are doing can trigger anxiety that you're not participating or being left out of experiences.
- Cyberbullying: Social media allows bullying to follow people everywhere via hurtful comments and messages. This can damage self-esteem.
- Less face time: Overuse of social media may replace real social interaction and connection, which is important for mental well

Abnormal Psychology and Attitudes toward Mental IllnessPeople’s at.docx
Abnormal Psychology and Attitudes toward Mental Illness
People’s attitudes and beliefs toward mental illness are not always accurate or positive. A person’s attitude towards mental illness influences how he or she interacts and shows sympathy or support towards people with mental disorders.
People’s attitudes and beliefs can also influence how the individual suffering with a disorder feels about his or herself and perceives personal problems and psychological distress, such as one’s level of comfort to confide in other people about his or her symptoms or difficulties.
Many people have a physical illness, such as cancer, heart disease, and diabetes; however, people tend to believe that physical illness is something out of the individual’s control, which releases the individual from the blame for his or her own illness. Positive beliefs about mental illness are likely to result in more supportive and inclusive behaviors, such as being willing to hire a person with a physical illness. Positive attitudes allow individuals with a physical illness a level of acceptance and freedom to reach out for help because they do not feel ashamed for their illness compared to illnesses that are viewed by society as a personal weakness.
There are misconceptions surrounding mental illnesses, which have multiple consequences for an individual suffering with a mental disorder and society. People may think that they know what mental illness is, but do not fully understand its level of impairment and debilitating effects for everyday living. People may believe that there is no hope or a successful treatment available for those suffering with a mental illness. Misconceptions surrounding mental illness are that people bring on their own problems, are weak, lack self-discipline, have “gone mad,” or that mental illness is not a real disease.
Misconceptions about mental illnesses fuel social stigmas (how people are labeled). If the greater society labels people with mental illness as being weak or at fault for their own illness, it can result in them being treated unfairly, shunned, or even oppressed by the society in which they live. People in society can exclude those with mental illness from social activities, avoid them, or overlook them for a job position, thus limiting their career opportunities and opportunities for social relationships. Because people with a mental illness can be fearful of being made to feel ashamed or excluded from society, it can influence whether the individual reaches out for help or continues with treatment or therapy.
In general, although in America people have begun to believe that mental illnesses can be treated and that people with a disorder can learn to live a normal life, this belief has not transpired into positive attitudes towards mental illness (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2012). In America, one study found that people are more likely to view mental illness and other behavioral problems as being a personal weaknes.

It also discusses why mental health issues are difficult to talk about, how stigma interferes with care, and solutions for dealing with stigma.Stigma and Discrimination against the Mentally Ill YouthTh.docx
Stigma and Discrimination against the Mentally Ill Youth
The topic selected for the research question is Stigma and Discrimination against the Mentally Ill Youth. Stigma against mentally ill youths is prevalent in our society today. The problem of stigma against the mentally ill teenagers is that it could hinder them from accessing the medical help that they need. It is wrong to discriminate mentally ill youths, and this stigma should be avoided. The community should see the person rather than looking at the mental condition. Stigma and discrimination of people with mental illness is a prevalent problem in the society today. Stigma can pervade the lives of those suffering from mental challenges. According to research, stigma and discrimination of mentally ill youths can affect self-esteem and rob people social opportunities, which can result in people to lack happiness. Issues such as denied opportunities of employment can affect social and emotional wellbeing of the patients. Sadly, people with mental problems can make their difficulties worse if they are face stigma in the society. According to medical experts, many patients may respond slowly or make it to recover when they face stigma and discrimination because it can increase depression and other related challenges.
Abstract
Population of Interest
My population of interest is mentally ill youths. It is surprising to now that many children and youth have mental illness. Roughly, 14% of young people tend to face mental illness at some point during the development phase. Mental illness is a significant problem and we must address it head on to reduce the adverse effects and promote positive social changes in the society. Mental illness is a significant problem. Approximately 60% of mental illnesses show up before the age of 18 years. This condition has a significant impact on a child's development. Mentally ill youths are the most affected in terms of stigma and discrimination. It is essential to study this group so that we can understand why do people discriminate and stigmatize the mentally ill youths and how can this behavior be dealt with.
Equality Act of 2010
Mental health is a condition, which is considered as a disability, especially if it has a long term effect on the day-to-day life of the patient. The Equality Act 2010 may apply to this case. The act protects disabled people from facing unfair treatment. The Equality Act 2010 says that it is wrong to harass, discriminate, or victimize people because of their disability. The act also protects mentally ill people from facing discrimination at the workplace. The law further protects the patients when they want services such as housing, education, and others.
Moreover, it is essential to talk openly about the problem of stigma and discrimination against people with mental illness because it will promote education and awareness in society. Lastly, it is important to educate society about the problem because many people are not aw.

Abstract
Everyone is susceptible to the development of mental health regardless of race, color,
gender, or identity. More than half of the citizens in the United States are recognized with a
mental illness in their lifetime, and African Americans are at higher risk of developing a mental
illness due to limited resources and other barriers. The challenge is further enhanced in the
community due to a stigma prevailing in the group that prevents most members from seeking
medical help. The lack of knowledge about mental illness calls for increased awareness of the
challenge, especially when the cond.

- 3. Yet, with the stigma, how many people in the U.S. suffer from a form of mental illness?
- 4. CHOOSE: A 42.8 million C 26.2 million B 35.4 million D 46.6 million
- 5. An estimated 46.6 million people suffer from some form of mental illness, yet the mental health stigma still affects society’s perspective of mental illness. It is seen as a sign of weakness or less human. Thus, creating the stereotypes that affect many people with mental illnesses today.
- 6. 04 HARMFUL SIDE EFFECTS OF THE STIGMA 01 02 03 These cause people to think negatively of those with mental illnesses STEREOTYPES These misinforms people about the reality of mental illness MISCONCEPTIONS This limits people with mental illness because it takes away opportunities or rights DISCRIMINATION This is the cause of most stereotypes and misconceptions IGNORANCE
- 7. STEREOTYPES Many stereotypes are associated with mental illness. The most common stereotypes are that people with mental illness are unpredictable, dangerous, weak, or even contagious. These stereotypes are harmful and detrimental to those who have mental illnesses. On the next slide, clips from an infographic provided by the Centennial Mental Health Center will prove how incorrect the many stereotypes are.

- 10. IGNORANCE Ignorance is also a contributing factor to the mental health stigma and many people express ignorant opinions that influence other people’s opinion. Society and even pop culture will affect ignorant people and their opinions. What they are shown online or on television, they will believe to be true which is dangerous because they will be misinformed or will miss vital signs of mental illness. For more information on this topic: https://www.time-to-change.org.uk/
- 11. DISCRIMINATION People with mental illness will experience discrimination due to the mental health stigma. They are not treated equal and are denied basic rights in many cases. They can be denied healthcare or there are not enough accessible mental health services for them. Because of the stigma, they are deprived of opportunities and equality.
- 12. HOW TO STOP CONTRIBUTING TO THE STIGMA To stop contributing to the mental health stigma, the best ways to do this is by educating yourself on mental illness and rid yourself of ignorance. Become familiar with the common signs of mental illness and do not stereotype those with mental illness. Recognize occasions where someone is being discriminated against, so you will be able to stop it.
