1. Prevalence and Impact - Mental disorders affect individuals across the globe,
irrespective of age, gender, or socioeconomic status. According to the World Health
Organization (WHO), approximately one in four people experiences a mental health
condition at some point in their lives. The burden of mental illness extends beyond the
individual, impacting families, communities, and societies at large. This staggering
statistic emphasizes the urgent need for effective intervention, support, and awareness.
People have understood that mental health problems are common and can affect
anyone. Efforts are being made to reduce the shame and discrimination surrounding
mental health to take a holistic approach by considering the mind, body, and social
factors. Mental health is being integrated into regular healthcare systems, and global
initiatives are working to improve mental health services worldwide.
