Abstract
Stigma surrounding mental health issues can significantly impact individuals with psychiatric conditions and their families. This study focuses on investigating the multifaceted effects of stigma on psychiatric patients and their relatives within the context of three selected rehabilitation centers in Bauchi Local Government Area (LGA), Bauchi State. Utilizing a mixed-methods research approach, this study combines both quantitative and qualitative methodologies to comprehensively explore the experiences of individuals affected by mental health stigma. Quantitative surveys assess the prevalence and perception of stigma among psychiatric patients and their relatives, while qualitative interviews provide in-depth insights into the emotional, social, and psychological repercussions of stigma. The study's primary objectives include examining the various dimensions of stigma faced by psychiatric patients and their families, identifying the coping mechanisms adopted by these individuals to navigate stigma-related challenges, and exploring potential interventions that can mitigate the negative effects of stigma on their well-being. The anticipated outcomes of this research hold implications for mental health advocacy, education, and support. By shedding light on the specific ways in which stigma impacts psychiatric patients and their relatives, the study aims to raise awareness about the urgent need for destigmatization efforts. Additionally, the research may offer insights into developing effective support systems and interventions to help individuals and families affected by mental health stigma. ...
