Introduction

Hello, I am arnav and for my Personal Project I am addressing the topic of Mental health stigma in adolescents. The reason I chose this topic is because there were many of my friends who were always talking about the fact that there's something going on in their mind and they are not really sure what it is about. Based on which it was impacting their relationships with people, their relationship with members who were close to them and was not ready to have something called a “Social Life”. They became people who were very sensitive and started crying for no reason at times. They have stated that they were “going through a lot of psychological and emotional pressure due to society's needs”.

But unfortunately, they do not know how to cope with it as they don’t know who to trust and rely upon. They have the feeling that they are the only one going through that particular problem and no one will really understand the problem inside of their head.
