The general consensus and belief that surrounds the Pakistani society is that people with a mental illness should just get on with their lives, therefore you should get married because that’s the one-stop desi solution to all our problems. And then there are troubles of the other kind, like drug abuse, that not only harm one’s mental health, but it shapes their entire live, which unfortunately does not come with a warranty card.
Healthcare is something that we all deserve to have access to wherever we are, however in most countries like Pakistan, there is no healthcare system in place for people who are struggling to survive and make a decent living. Mental health is considered a taboo despite raising awareness campaigns and marches, and drug abuse is sadly a lost cause.
For the first time in Pakistan, in order to tackle both, mental and drug-related issues and help people how to take control over their lives, the Health Republic, A Premium Psychiatric and Drug Rehab Center is being introduced to identify and treat such individuals with proper medical care and extra-curricular activities in a facility that promises to be safe and nurturing.
