Sažetak
Previous studies suggest unambiguous stigma of mental disorders, as well as the fact that a different number of socio-cultural community has prejudices and negative attitudes towards people with mental health problems. In both, developed and underdeveloped, countries stigmatized people feel trapped between feelings of shame and guilt and rejection of the community. A key aspect of stigmatization is the experience of people with mental disorders who are considered dangerous and, therefore, other people avoid contact with them. The stigmatization has negative consequences for ill person, but also much wider. Specifically, the belief that mental illness is hereditary, sometimes the whole family suffers stigmatization of other people. The stigmatization of people with mental illness in social relations leads to discrimination, disdain, contempt, underestimating, isolation and misunderstanding. Vyavaharkar et al. (2010) confirm that the variables of social support positively correlated with variables of depression. The investigation was conducted to gain insight into the level of perceived stigmatization of patients who are diagnosed with affective disorders. The battery research use Stigmatization scale (Dinos et al., 2004). The questionnaire includes experiences of people facing the psychological stress. The focus is directed to the emotions associated with perceived stress and reactions of people to the same. The data will be collected anonymously, in accordance with the Principles of the Code of Ethics under the Protection of Persons with Mental Disorders. The research will be conducted from February 2017 - April 2017, the Department of Affective Disorders, University Psychiatric Hospital Vrapče. The study included 100 subjects. The research sample consists of both sexes suffering from affective disorders that are involved in some form of treatment (outpatient treatment, daily hospital, hospital treatment), aged 18-75 years, regardless of comorbid disease.
