Sir: It is unfortunate that Pakistan is among countries with the highest number of mental health cases yet it’s barely discussed.
In our country, the plethora of problems and crimes makes the situation worst for these people. If this problem persists, I am afraid that we might face a mental health crisis all over the country. I request social and traditional media platforms to make content regarding the problem. I also request my fellow citizens not to radicalise these people and comfort them to come out with their plights before they choose to end their lives in silence.
