AI

This integrative review examines the stigma faced by individuals with mental illness as perceived by health professionals. It explores how stigma acts as a barrier to effective health services, leading to negative outcomes in treatment and recovery. The review highlights the complex nature of stigma, its roots in societal attitudes and media portrayals, and the need for awareness among health professionals regarding the impacts of their attitudes on patient care.
