The feeling of mental health stigma

What is mental health stigma and what can we do to tackle it?

"We all have the right to be protected from discrimination...it underpins our human rights." 

See Change Sessions with Alittlegail is a podcast series hosted by Abigail McDonnell, and is all about starting the conversation and breaking the stigma surrounding mental health and the difficulties that may come within it.

Our Advocacy Manager and registered occupational therapist, Louise O’Leary, was a  guest on the podcast to discuss mental health stigma. Louise was joined by See Change Ambassador and mental health advocate, Lucie Kavanagh, to discuss the feelings around mental health difficulties and stigma. 

They discuss why we have the right to be protected from mental health stigma, expressing our mental health difficulties to others and our #NoStigma campaign.
