Throughout his life, Fisher has been explaining the problems caused by "bipolar disorder" and "substance use disorder" and the experiences of people stigmatized by these illnesses in meetings and television programs he has participated in.

SUBSTANCE USE IS A MENTAL ILLNESS

Psychiatry Specialist Assist. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Alptekin Çetin from NPISTANBUL Hospital said, 'As can be seen from Fisher's experiences, substance use disorder is a serious mental illness. This disease, which can last a lifetime and negatively affect all organs in the body, can occur in all segments of society. It can also appear together with different mental illnesses. ' he said.

After Fisher's death, her daughter Billie Lourd said that her mother had fought for years to ensure that people diagnosed with bipolar disorder and substance use disorder were not stigmatized by society, and that these illnesses were not things to be ashamed of, but conditions that needed to be treated.
