Hari was harvesting potatoes when the devastating earthquake struck on 25th April 2015. He rushed back to find his house razed to the ground with his parents buried under the debris. His parents were rescued but Hari started displaying symptoms of Post-traumatic stress disorder. “I kept hearing my son’s voice as if he was calling for help,” recalls Hari. As well as experiencing hallucinations, his behaviour became irrational, convinced he was going to lose his piece of land he would hide his ownership papers. He took to drinking alcohol and roamed aimlessly without sharing any whereabouts to his family living in a temporary shelter. His wife, teenaged son and daughter watched helplessly as he kept living a nightmare. Hari was referred to a CBM-supported emergency mental health project. After a monthly session with a psychiatrist, subsidised medication and regular home visits from a counsellor he began to recover from the trauma and is working on a construction site. This support has also helped Hari realise that he is not alone and has nothing to be ashamed of: “I now know that there are many other people who are mentally affected due to the impact of the earthquake. I am also able to speak in social gatherings, allowing me to share my feelings. ”The ignorance, fear, misunderstanding and prejudice that surround mental illness deepen the severity of the illness as individuals withdraw further from the world around them. Due to the stigma associated with mental illness, a lack of awareness, and limited access to professional help, only 10-12% of these sufferers will seek help. Answer the following questions : 1. Why is it important to talk about mental health? 2. What kind of prejudices are there in your community? 3. What are the reasons for rising cases of depression, anxiety and stress etc? 4. What are the signs and symptoms of mental illness? 5. How can we take care of our mental wellbeing?
