As Indians, we must work to inform ourselves of the facts on mental health, so that we can beat the stigma and support those in need

About 1 in 4 people experience some kind of mental health problem in any one year

Anxiety and depression are the most common problems, with around 1 in 10 people affected at any one time

Between one and two in every 100 people experience a severe mental illness, such as bi-polar disorder or schizophrenia

Despite these incredible statistics, we have only 5,000 psychiatrists and psychologists in the whole country

This translates into one doctor for every 2.5 lakh people!

This lack of resource will not be solved overnight, but we as a community can do a lot more to support those in need
