Pakistan is facing a severe and often ignored mental health emergency. With only 700โ800 psychiatrists and 300โ400 psychologists serving a population of over 250 million, this translates to one psychiatrist for nearly 350,000 peopleโcompared to one per 6,500 in the UK and USA, and one per 10,000 as per WHO standards.
In this video, I explain the scale of this crisis, expose the growing menace of mental health quacks, and highlight the dangerous role of so-called influencers and motivational speakers who spread misinformation and worsen public harm. I also outline practical, evidence-based solutions needed to fix this broken system.
