Studying the representation of mental and psychological problems, addiction and death is of great importance for society, which is why this research has tried to pierce into the quality of these representations. This research tries to raise the public's awareness about negative representations of death and about representations of sensitive members of the society such as mentally and psychologically challenged people and addicts. It is also aimed at raising the public's awareness about the possible negative implications of certain representations. Results were reached by the method of narrative analysis of sequences chosen from four contemporary films and four contemporary series. This research had shown that the studied representations are mainly negative and that these representations often display unfavorable images of mental and psychological problems, addiction, and death through contemporary American and British films and series chosen for the narrative analysis. The portrayal of characters with mental and psychological problems and addicts is unsatisfactory. The meanings that viewers can access and later on incorporate into their stances are not stimulating for the society in the sense of sensitization but on the contrary – they perpetuate negative stances towards people with mental and psychological problems and addicts. As well, perceived and analyzed representations do not contribute to a profound understanding of the phenomenon of death perceived from different aspects, instead, they represent death in an unvaried way. This study tries to bring attention to often overlooked individuals and phenomenon in society.
