On this day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi wrote on his X post,” World Mental Health Day serves as a powerful reminder that mental health is a fundamental part of our overall well-being. In a fast-paced world, this day underscores the importance of reflecting and extending compassion to others. Let us also work collectively to create environments where conversations around mental health become more mainstream. My compliments to all those working in this field and helping others heal and find happiness.”
According to WHO recent report,
More than one billion people globally, or 13-14% of the world’s population, live with a mental disorder, with anxiety and depression being the most common. India contributes significantly to this, around 15% of adults experiencing mental health issues and a high burden of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs).
A major challenge in India is the “treatment gap,” where, 70% to 92% of people with mental health conditions don’t receive proper treatment, a situation exacerbated by stigma and a shortage of mental health.
