The National Health and Morbidity Survey 2017, the trend among those aged between 13 and 17 had increased by 10% in 2017 compared to 7.9% in 2012. The same study showed that the depression rate (among those in the age group) is 18.3%, where one in five has depression; two in five, anxiety; and one in 10 suffer from stress.

Mental health is just like physical health; there are times when we are sick and require treatment. However, mental health is still largely misunderstood; for example, mental illness is often associated with personal weakness and the patient is expected to snap out of it with sheer willpower.
