Abstract

With the current paradigm shift in the modern world, mental health is becoming an area of major concern. According to an estimate by WHO, mental health illnesses constitute about 14% of the disease burden worldwide 1. About 15 million people are thought to be suffering from mental health problems in Pakistan according to a recent study 2 and about 25% US population is experiencing these illnesses. The term 'Mental Health Literacy (MHL)' was coined in 1997 and was described as "knowledge about mental disorders that aid in their detection, management, and prevention".
