Rethinking Prejudices About Mental Health Issues (x-stigma)

[ilovemrtoast]

there reactions are so sad, I am a grade A student, im not 'spastic' or 'retarted' I am not 'destructive' towards others. I cut myself, does it make me that different?

[ursularsaur]

Hey this is kindof cool, cos i did CIP with Minds last year, and really the kids didnt turn out to be what i expected, most of them may not be as 'intelligent" as us, but a lot of them prove to be very independent and street smart, they aren't all helpless and crazy like we think. good job :)

Not bad, really impressive. This video sure did enlighten me abt mentally unsound patients and the social stigma attached to them. Hehe. LOVED IT!!! GREAT JOB!!!

Nice video you have here, and your campaign did raise many valid points that many of us could take home in the treatment of the mentally ill around us.

However, I feel that perhaps, one of the ways to prevent mental health problems is to start treating the people around us with more respect and dignity.

Most of the mentally ill are not born with a mental illness since young, and are in fact shaped by adverse circumstances around them, such as ridicule, pressure, etc that causes their mental illness to take root. So perhaps, your campaign should also acknowledge this.

All in all, your campaign was very informative and it did deepen my knowledge in people suffering mental problems - thank you and keep up the good work!

hmmm i never actually thought much about people with mental health problems. always assumed the things they said on tv (crazy, demented, psychopath, etc) were true.

thanks for opening my eyes to this issue in an interesting way. learnt alot of stuff from the vid.

inspiring to see students fighting for causes that they believe in, even though the cause may not be very popular or well-known. keep up the good work!

[riverrainfield]

LOVE IT! haha. how it starts, how it ends, and everything in between!

[lovepeacejoymuch]

Haha this is quite interesting. Its kinda long but i enjoyed it. To be honest i felt quite guilty when watching the interviews xD Cos i realise that i felt the same way about ppl with mental health problems.

Amusing way of debunking the myths haha i burst out laughing more than once :D :D
