“…Mittal et al (2012) suggest that psychoeducation and cognitive therapy are the two most dominant treatment modalities piloted and evaluated targeting stigma with individuals with mental illnesses including schizophrenia and depression. Other researchers are employing a narrative approach to assist individuals to reconceptualize their mental illness in a way that is empowering by identifying structural influences and power imbalances that may be shaping their experiences (Mackay et al, 2015). Although investigations on stigma resistance interventions are in their infancy, eating disorder researchers may consider piloting interventions previously studied with people with other mental illnesses in a population of people with AN.…”

Self-stigma in individuals with anorexia nervosa (AN) may affect engagement in intensive treatment. The objective of this study was to test a Model of Self-Stigma to identify the influence of public stigma, internalized stigma, self-esteem, and self-efficacy on recovery attitudes in individuals in inpatient treatment for AN. Using a cross-sectional design, 36 female participants with AN completed questionnaires during the first week of intensive inpatient treatment. Better attitude towards recovery was positively correlated with higher self-esteem and self-efficacy and negatively correlated with greater internalized stigma and perceptions of others devaluing families of individuals with AN. Together, these factors accounted for 63% of the variance in recovery attitudes. Findings demonstrate the adverse effects perceived stigma towards families, self-stigma, and self-esteem have on recovery attitudes in individuals with AN. Clinical interventions are needed to challenge internalized stigma and bolster self-esteem to enhance individuals' recovery efforts.

“…Finally, additional articles highlight personal struggles and successes with overcoming self-stigma. MacKay, Bradstreet, McArthur, and Dunion (2015) explored experiences and effects of self-stigma as well as practical strategies to address its negative consequences via qualitative interviews with mental health service users in Scotland. Their work highlights the power of deconstructing and revising personal narratives regarding one’s mental health diagnosis and the personal meanings ascribed to it, and considers the role of power dynamics in stigmatization.…”

This article presents a short, easy-to-use guideline for clinicians working with people with serious mental illness, particularly those with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, delusional disorders, other psychotic disorders, or depression with significant impact on functioning, and may be of use for those working with individuals with bipolar disorder. This guideline is not meant to supplant the more detailed, excellent clinical practice guidelines that have been developed and published. Rather, the charts and explanation presented here are designed as a step-by-step tool that clinicians can use to ensure they are following the most appropriate course of action and providing the best psychosocial rehabilitation services possible for persons with these disorders. Program managers can use this tool to evaluate the processes used in their system to ensure that appropriate services are offered for the individuals in their care. This guideline is also not meant as a substitute for comprehensive training in the practice of assessment and treatment for individuals with serious mental illness. Very little detail is provided about the disorders, appropriate assessments, and interventions because clinicians providing services to people with these disorders should have received the specialized training necessary to appropriately deliver the services needed by these individuals.
