When we imagined what the Pakistani society would look like in the future we hoped for a community in which people could ask for and offer help without any judgement. A society in which people can talk about their troubled past and their turbulent journeys without fear. Children could openly and freely discuss their mental health problems with their parents and teachers and trust that no one will ridicule them. And people could seek help and assured that their confidentiality won’t be broken. We envision a society in which Pakistanis understand the importance of mental health. And where going to a mental health professional or therapist is not seen as a sign of weakness or a cause for shame but as a necessary regular occurrence.
With mental health issues being so widespread in the population, it is extremely important to raise awareness, support those around you that are suffering from a mental health problems, and to seek help if you feel you are suffering from any form of mental illness or mental health problem.
We aim to create awareness and provide education about mental health in order to decrease the taboo surrounding it and build acceptance. We believe that most of the resources and content related to mental health online is predominantly Western. Most of the psychological research that we come across has also been conducted in the West and so their findings may not be applicable to our society.
Our organization aims to create a narrative of mental health that is solely Pakistani.
We want to own our mental health struggles.
They are nothing to be ashamed of.
So yes, your phupo’s cousin’s maami might judge you for owning your narrative and taling about your mental health. But the moment we stop caring about the negative judgement of others we will be free to help ourselves and others.
