Summary

 Studies and work over the past four decades demonstrated that stigmatization related to mental illness can be reduced or prevented and that it is possible to avoid many of its consequences. Despite this, there are recent reports about the increase of stigmatization of the mentally ill. A possible explanation of this paradox is that the principles on which much of the previous work against stigma had been based are becoming obsolete.

 This paper examines six postulates about anti-stigma work which have been-and are still-used to guide anti-stigma programs. These include, for example, the emphasis on basing anti-stigma programs on results of in depth studies of attitudes, the insistence on having long term detailed plans of activities and the priority given on the provision of information about mental illnesses. It stresses that the examination of these postulates is used to illustrate the need to review other postulates and rules governing current work against stigma. It proposes changes of these postulates based on the findings of recent studies and of the experience from countries that have successfully dealt with stigma.
