Study Reveals Widespread Mental Health Distress Among Young Indian Men
A recent five-year study by Mpower, an initiative of the Aditya Birla Education Trust, reveals a significant mental health crisis among young Indian men. Over 2.83 lakh men sought support, with more than two lakh aged 18-25. The data highlights rising stressors, limited support systems, stigma, and a culture discouraging men from seeking help. Relationship stress, depression, and anxiety were common reasons for seeking support, with Pune and Mumbai showing the highest engagement. Experts emphasize that seeking help is a sign of strength.
