SO GLAD YOU ASKED!

YOU MAY BE FLABBERGASTED TO DISCOVER THAT 1 IN 3 PEOPLE SUFFER FROM MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES IN THEIR LIFETIME!

SINCE SO MANY OF US, OUR FRIENDS, FAMILY OR LOVED ONES WILL STRUGGLE WITH MENTAL ILLNESS YOU MIGHT FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCE STIGMA BECAUSE OF THEIR ILLNESS.

BUT IT’S TRUE!

‘SO WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL WITH STIGMA ANYWAY?’ I HEAR THE OTHER 5 BILLION OF YOU ASK.

WELL, STIGMA CAN BE ONE REAL NASTY CRITTER!

IT STOPS PEOPLE FROM COMING FORWARD AND ASKING FOR THE HELP THEY NEED
IT SPREADS FEAR AND CONFUSION MAKING TREATMENT WAY MORE DIFFICULT
AND IT MAKES RECOVERY AND REINTEGRATION SEEM ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE!

STIGMA IS LIKE THIS DIRTY OLD FLY CALLED

STIGGY

YES, HE IS FLIPPING YOU THE BIRD

LOOK AT HIM, HE IS SO GROSS!

YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY?

STIGGY FLIES FROM ONE STEAMING PILE OF P*OP TO ANOTHER SPREADING NASTINESS AROUND YOUR ENTIRE TOWN!

JUST LIKE ANY OLD CRITTER WE WOULDN’T WANT THEM BUZZING AROUND OUR FRIENDS OR OUR HOUSES… WE WOULD SEND THOSE NASTY OLD BUGGERS PACKING BEFORE THEY EVEN KNEW WHAT SQUISHED THEM!

EEEEW!

STIGMA IS JUST AS DANGEROUS AND EVEN MORE UNPLEASANT TO HAVE AROUND.

BUZZ OFF STIGGY!

BUT BEFORE YOU RUN FOR YOUR CAN OF DOOM REMEMBER THIS:

THE BEST WAY TO SWAT OUT STIGMA IS BY SHARING STORIES OF STRUGGLE AND TRIUMPH, AND HELPING US TO EDUCATE THE PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE ABOUT HOW TO SUPPORT PEOPLE STRUGGLING WITH MENTAL ILLNESS IN YOUR COMMUNITY.

REMEMBER, PEOPLE WHO SPREAD STIGMA NEED OUR HELP TOO!

EVEN STIGGY CAN HELP IF HE LEARNS THE FACTS AND SPREADS A MESSAGE OF LOVE AND SUPPORT!

YAY STIGGY!

ALL IT TAKES IS A LITTLE EDUCATION TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT SOME OF THE COOLEST PEOPLE ON THE PLANET SUFFER FROM MENTAL ILLNESS!

SO GET YOUR GOBBERS GOBBING AND HELP US TO SPREAD OUR MESSAGE AND EXTERMINATE STIGMA ONCE AND FOR ALL.

THREE CHEERS FOR US!

AND RIP STIGMA
