Sammanfattning
The article is based upon qualitative research interviews with four non-Western informants. The research question is: How do non-Western immigrants feel about mental health? The study shows lack of knowledge among them about mental disorders. Unfortunately, people with mental disorders are stigmatized. The informants think that stigma and discrimination against people with mental disorders are serious problems, and that there is work to be done to prevent stigmatization (Walås, 2013).
