Thesis Abstract
This project aims to investigate the linguistic representation of mental illness in various communicative contexts. It seeks to understand how language is used to describe, discuss, and portray mental health issues, as well as how linguistic choices contribute to the stigmatization or destigmatization of mental illness. By analyzing discourse, narratives, and communication patterns related to mental health, this study aims to shed light on the complex interplay between language and mental well-being.
