Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Breaking the Silence, we take a global look at how stigma around mental health and substance use is shaped by culture. With a focus on Nigeria, we explore how spiritual and religious beliefs influence public attitudes, often leading to harmful misconceptions and silence. We also compare this to stigma in countries like Canada, examining how different cultural narratives affect whether people seek help—or suffer in silence.
