Breaking the Stigma Around Mental Health | Neeraj Singh Rathore | TEDxGreenfield
Mental health is the crisis we don’t talk about enough. By 2025, nearly a billion people will be affected worldwide, yet millions will suffer in silence. In India alone, 1 in 7 individuals face mental health challenges, and shockingly, 60% never seek help. Why? Because of limited access, social stigma, and the belief that silence is strength.In this talk, Neeraj Singh sheds light on the hidden battles people fight every day and the urgent need to change how we view mental health. He challenges the stigma, unpacks the barriers to care, and calls for a world where reaching out for help is seen not as weakness, but as courage.The message is simple but powerful: mental health is health and it’s time we treat it that way.
