Mental health conditions happen to people from all walks of lives. From male to female; from elders to youngsters; from professionals to students. Especially during the pandemic, mental health struggles have become more much more common than we think. In Malaysia, 1 in every 4 adults suffer from a diagnosable mental disorder, and the numbers are still rising. Unfortunately, a lot of people choose to fight this battle alone because of the stigma towards them in the society. The reason for it includes a lack of mental health literacy and awareness among the Malaysians. Many of them still do not view mental health problems as a serious issue. However, it doesn’t have to be that way. We believe that this stigma can be broken.

​
