    Position Statement on Stigma

    There is no doubt that cultural differences and exchanges can require great humility and sensitivity to avoid unintended insult or humiliation; the human desire to befriend and reach out can sometimes result in disagreements about entitlements and mutual obligations and rights’.

    Hi Roos, I’m working with great documentary on mental health and I’m wondering if there might be a place for it here. It’s a fantastic intro to some mental health apps that use real research to help those with mental illnesses. You can see it here: http://www.codetherapyfilm.com

    • in2mentalhealth  On July 4, 2017 at 7:13 am

      Dear Jason. I’ve seen the video, and indeed it’s nice and clear. But this in2mentalhealth website is closed, which means that I’m not posting new info on it anymore. But I will give your documentary some extra attention on Fb and Twitter. Good luck and thanks, Roos
