This isn't all the research I have done. There is research amongst the mental progress in which I was pondering what imagery equates to the feeling of a viral infection. There is research within the community pages, from what people have shared with me. This is namely research of the media's perceptions of the mentally ill, the articles propagating stigmas, or helping to debunk them. Links provided below are the links I used when constructing the ideas for my projects. Not all are publically accessible, some you may have to sign up (free) to login, but I thought it important to show others where I have found my sources.

I in no way support any of the sources listed here. I am not saying they are credible or non-credible, I am just listing what I have found when researching mental illnesses. Some theories I really am against, some I think are off the wall and heresay, some I find to be very true and thought-provoking, but I will leave my list unbiased for those who want to discover and think for themselves.
