Abstract

Stigma affects psychiatry and psychiatrists in two ways: firstly, through its negative effects on the patients’ illness course, help-seeking behavior, treatment adherence, and social inclusion; secondly, negative views about psychiatry and psychiatrists are also common in the medical profession itself (Gaebel et al. 2015). The negative image of psychiatry and psychiatrists may keep medical graduates from choosing psychiatry as their professional career.
