Mental disorders have advanced in contemporary society. Some factors that can be attributed this development is burdened life and the unbridled pursuit of money. The overwork, physical inactivity and lack of time for themselves and for each other, have generated in most people feelings of loneliness, frustration, anger, severe depressive episodes, emotional detachment, low job satisfaction, psychosis, mania and suicide . The stigmatization of patients with psychiatric disorders in the family, at work, in social groups and society is responsible for the social exclusion of those people. The stigma of madness wounds human dignity, in that it removes the person’s identity itself, deconstructing its image and the framing like crazy. Tolerance is shown here as an attitude able to bring into society those people who suffer from psychiatric disorders, in order to curb the phenomenon of stigmatization, thus ensuring them a decent life, of which health is fundamental core.
