In "Hana Feels," the theme of stigma is intricately woven into the narrative. The game delves into the stigma surrounding mental health issues and emotions that are often misunderstood or dismissed in society. It does so by immersing players in the personal journey of the protagonist, Hana, as they navigate various emotional struggles and challenges. the stigma is seen when Hana starts pushing away Jen who was basically her only friend by refusing her invites to hang out with her. This leads to Jen eventually cutting Hana off completely and even when this happened Hana did not try to fight it. She gave Jen half-baked replies with a nonchalant attitude as seen in the image .
