Need of the hour...

Besides striving to free our society from the clutches of stigmatization, the need of the hour is to strongly advocate the preventive as well as curative aspects of mental health. We all should come together to work towards the very grass-root levels and help make a difference in the community at large. At the same time, we need to promote adequate training and empowerment of parents, teachers, social workers actively engaging with children and adolescents, to be able to have the timely interventions for the young minds who shall form the future of our country.

As a final word, I think we have a three-fold responsibility towards the future of mental health in our nation today. Spreading a widespread awareness, creating sensitivity within ourselves and building a preventive approach to be able to reach out all sections of the community.
