Where this comes from

Abstract

The stigma associated with mental health problems leaves many feeling they have to 'hide' their difficulties. Supporting them in making disclosure decisions can potentially improve well-being, reduce self-stigma and support recovery processes. In this editorial we discuss the case for interventions designed for this purpose and present one prominent programme: Honest, Open, Proud.
