This essay aims at identifying, discussing and exploring different sociological reasons for the social stigmatisation and social exclusion of people with mental health problems. It also investigates the extent of the impact that this has on the patient and their situation. This assignment will incorporate different sociological approaches and will draw on personal clinical experience.
