Mermaids is a massively multiplayer online game set in an underwater world in which players take on the roles of hatchlings coming to life in the ruins of a long-extinct mermaid culture.
Mental health issues are considered to be socially stigmatized in the society. Consequently, too many individuals, finding a trusted individual whom they can confide to regarding their mental illness is a grave challenge. It has been established that online communities provide a powerful platform for candid disclosures and support seeking around stigmatized concerns and experiences. Online health support groups in Reddit, in particular, due to their semi-anonymity feature, have established an extensive support platform for people with social inhibitions seeking help.
