Can I sue someone for defamation if that person said to another person privately that I have a mental illness that I don't have?
Okay, that's good to know. What if the person who made the false statement about me is a public figure or celebrity? Would it be harder for me to prove defamation?
Defaming a public figure or celebrity can be more difficult because they must prove actual malice, which means that the false statement was made with knowledge that it was false or with reckless disregard for the truth. However, if the person who made the false statement about you is not a public figure or celebrity, then you may have an easier time proving defamation.
