Feedback: Although public stigma and self-stigma may be areas needing to be addressed, in this L

FT L L
FT L
FT L
FT L
FT FT L FT L L
FT L
FT FT L FT L FT L FT L L
FT FT L



not to be labeled mentally ill is a type of stigma that influences why so few people with mental health

FT L
FT FT L FT L FT L FT L L

problems actually receive assistance. Asian cultures commonly have negative views of mental illness
FT L FT L FT L FT L FT L FT L FT L FT L FT L L
FT FT L FT L L

that influence the willingness of members to seek treatment; they possibly ignore the symptoms or refuse
FT L FT L FT L FT L FT L FT L L
FT FT L FT L FT L FT L FT L L

to seek treatment because of this stigma. Negative life events affect anyone, not just those of the Asian
