World Mental Health Day!

"Did you know that every 40 seconds, a person commits suicide?"
The number of individuals suffering from mental health disorders like depression and anxiety is rising globally. Unfortunately, the current COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the suicide epidemic.
This World Mental Health Day Fatima Shafiq (AKU MBBS’20) head of SPIE Socials and Marketing, speaks about the significance of mental health.
On this day, we pledge to raise awareness about mental health issues and remove the stigma around seeking help from medical professionals. If you know anyone around you struggling with their mental health, please provide them with the support to access a psychiatrist or psychologist. Together, we can normalize access to the right care and remove the stigma around mental disorders, which are quite often treatable.
Remember, healthy mind, healthy life!
