I want to thank you and congratulate you for choosing the book, "MENTAL HEALTH STIGMA: How to Overcome Mental Health Stigma in America." This book contains proven steps and strategies on how to overcome mental health stigma in America. There are a good number of people in the world today that view mental illness side effects as debilitating and uncomfortable, and these disposition most of the time foster stigmas and discrimination toward individuals with mental health issues. When you admit you have a mental health issue, it can lead to different types of exclusion or discrimination, either inside social circles or inside of the working environment. This is way most individuals with mental health issues will not seek help for their mental illness. Mental health stigmas take away from the individual character and makes negative generalization. Most of the time it is because of the lack of education or false information, tragically; the individual with the mental illness suffers.
