Zusammenfassung
Das Stigma psychischer Krankheit wirkt zum vielfachen Nachteil der Betroffenen und ist nicht zuletzt Behandlungshindernis. In Anbetracht der Prävalenz psychischer Krankheit in der Bevölkerung und der Tatsache, dass sie häufig lange unbehandelt bleibt, ist die Stigmabekämpfung auf dem Gebiet von Public Mental Health eine zentrale Herausforderung. Dabei sollte Anti-Stigma Arbeit gezielt, lokal, kontinuierlich, kontaktbasiert und recovery-orientiert ansetzen. Reduktionistischen sollten kontinuum-basierten Krankheitsmodellen weichen.
Abstract
The stigma of mental disease is detrimental to those afflicted by it and can ultimately inhibit help-seeking. Given the prevalence of mental illness in the general public and the fact that it often goes untreated for a long time, reducing this stigma constitutes an important public mental health concern. Anti-stigma initiatives should focus on targeted, local, continuous, contact-based, recovery-oriented interventions. Disease models should be continuum-based rather than reductionist.
