Stigma and Mental Health

Sorry it's late girls... Homework for Thursday 13th October.

What problems might be associated with being given a diagnosis of a mental health disorder such as schizophrenia? I am looking for a brief summary with 4-5 possible issues being addressed, on paper if needed but preferably on this blog.

I can't recommend the link below highly enough for personal accounts of psychosis: MENTAL HEALTH TALK ONLINE
