Abstract
This compilation of research explores the multifaceted nature of mental health stigma. It examines its public, self, and structural
dimensions, and its impact on help-seeking behaviors, particularly among young adults. The role of media, social media, cultural
contexts, and healthcare systems in perpetuating or mitigating stigma is analyzed. The effectiveness of various anti-stigma interven
tions and the influence of public policy are also discussed, highlighting the need for comprehensive and culturally sensitive strategies
to promote mental well-being and reduce prejudice
