When you label someone, you are essentially putting them into a stereotypical category of people. For example, if you like rock music someone might automatically label you as a 'goth' which would be stereotypical if you aren't in fact a goth.

This is actually a form of bullying in some ways, especially when you take into consideration that people with mental illnesses are continuously being labelled, perhaps making them social outcasts in their community.
