My YT algorithm brought me here. Interesting debate, although I noticed amongst the solutions, no one mentioned new infrastructure to facilitate the Mental Health Act. This solves two problems; psychiatrists will be employed and the patients have their need met. I'm in my final year of architecture and I'll base my project on this. Hoping my professor doesn't reject the idea.
This has changed me.

Powerful conversation
This is an interesting debate
This is a powerful conversation
It certainly is - and an important one.
How can we make mental health a priority when there is still such a massive stigma around it?
That's a very good question! Hopefully we can make some progress in that area to help those who need it the most.
