Eliminating ableist words such as “crazy” or “insane” is a small but vital way to reduce the stigmatizing impact of such language. You can significantly help reduce stigma against people with mental illness by not using these terms in your day to day communication. You can also create a positive impact by pointing it out to a family member, a friend or an acquaintance that it is not cool to use “derogatory terms” while talking about someone with mental illness.

If you know someone who may have mental illness, encourage that person to seek care as soon as possible. There is a range of psychosocial and medical services available. Seeking care earlier does not only reduce problems that are significantly disrupting their life, but also makes it easier for care providers to manage the illness with therapy and treatment.
