ISLAMABAD: Senior psychologists and public health experts warned on Saturday that the warmth and aggressive rhetoric of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is jeopardizing the mental well -being of millions of people in the subcontinent.
However, he noted that despite psychological pressures being caused by external threats, Pakistanis are stable, flexible and deeply committed to defending their homeland.
Mental health experts praised the collective power but warned that such flexibility should not be appreciated and it should be helped through long -term public mental health policies.
Addressing the inauguration and technical sessions of the 5th National Conference on Social Psychology, renowned Pakistani psychologists described the Indian Prime Minister as the need for “mentally unstable” and psychological diagnosis.
He said repeated calls for Modi’s inflammation and repeated calls for war could increase mental health problems in the region, including two nuclear weapons -equipped states, which have a common history of conflict and trauma.
The conference organized under the theme of “trauma, catastrophic and terrorism” is organized by Watim Medical and Dental College, Rawalpindi Department of Psychology and behavior science, Health Services Academy (HSA), Pakistan Association of Social Psychiatry, Pakistan Faculty of Facility.
Vice -Chancellor of the Health Services Academy Professor Shahad Ali Khan said that the root of the negative in Pakistani society is in the culture of “accusation game”.
He remarked, “When people stop looking at the interior and accuse others, it is a peak of negatives,” he added, adding that such behavior in the society also includes healthcare professionals, who have long been under work hours, financial pressures and financial pressures.
Professor Shahzad pointed out that a person’s attitude attitude is based on elementary education, but unfortunately, many teachers are self -trained and dynamic, which has led to negative cultivation since childhood.
He advised that “it is difficult to change the negative attitude of others, so focus on yourself. Stay away from accusing others, work on your ability and adopt positiveness.” He also highlighted the important role of the family unit in mental fitness and emphasized collective efforts to prevent it from being disturbed and dispersed.
Prof. Dr. Mazhar Malik, president of the Pakistan Association of Social Psychiatry, who is the main organizer of the program, has warned that threatening statements and war screams by leaders like Narendra Modi are hurting people across the subcontinent. “The statements of powerful personalities, fear, confusion and public behavior, are changed.”
Professor Malik said that Pakistani society has suffered repeated traumatic events for decades – from major earthquakes, floods and epidemic to terrorist attacks and economic elimination. He noted that the trauma has been trapped in households, palaces and workplaces, and government agencies have failed to provide proper mental health support, which has quietly confronted people.
He maintained that the purpose of this conference is to provide psychological “first aid” and develop a long -term rehabilitation framework for the affected people.
Health Minister of Health Dr. Jamal Nasir said that most Pakistanis suffer from some kind of mental health problems, but because of misconceptions about social notoriety and psychology, most of them refrain from receiving treatment.
He emphasized that mental health is like another branch of medicine, and people with trauma and stress should be encouraged to consult professionals without any shame.
Prof. Dr. Wajid Ali Akhunzada, President of Pakistan Psychiatric Society (PPS), also addressed the gathering and highlighted the increasing need for psychological and psychological services in the country.
He said that the burden of non -treatment mental illness is quietly crushing communities and weakening national flexibility in the world of destruction and conflict.
The program was also addressed by several other mental health experts, academics, and healthcare professionals, in which medical students, psychologists and psychologists from Islamabad and Rawalpindi participated in large numbers.
