Stigma Reading List

Reading List

Stigma is a complex construct that is present within societies at different levels. The impact of stigma can severely damage individuals and communities. People who use substances are often on the receiving end of stigmatising attitudes and discrimination from different sources ranging from the general public to healthcare professionals and politicians.

Stigma from external sources can lead to the internalisation of these negative attitudes. This can have a negative impact on an individual’s mental wellbeing, the likelihood of them seeking support and overall treatment outcomes.

Moving Beyond 'People First' Language- A Glossary of Contested Terms in Substance Use

Shared by Edie -
Format
Book
Published by / Citation
Scottish Drugs Forum

Language is powerful in shaping view and opinions about groups of people.

By changing the way we discuss substance use issues, we can start to reverse harmful stereotypes about addiction.

Drug use is heavily stigmastised. People who use drugs, and often those around them, can internalise this stigma.

This resource presents and explains terms that can be a source of stigma. It introduces the reader to the notion and importance of using person-first language so that we remain aware that we are talking about people and avoid 'othering'.

For example, we could say "people who use drugs" instead...
