Describe the stigma and discrimination with regard to mental illness. Explain the strategies to promote social responsibility amongst the general public.

Stigma and discrimination surrounding mental illness are pervasive issues that significantly hinder individuals with mental health conditions from seeking help, achieving recovery, and living fulfilling lives. This negative perception often originates from a lack of understanding, cultural beliefs, and societal biases, perpetuating stereotypes that portray individuals with mental illness as dangerous, unpredictable, or incapable. 

### Stigma and Discrimination with Regard to Mental Illness:

   Social stigma refers to the negative attitudes and beliefs that society holds against individuals with mental illness. This manifests as exclusion, judgment, and prejudice, often leading to social isolation and strained relationships. Many people with mental illness are unfairly labeled as "weak" or "irresponsible," resulting in reduced opportunities for education, employment, and housing.

2. Internalized Stigma:
