I think pressure from family, handling both family and work at the same time. Unnecessary restrictions such as don't go to work or learn cooking.

The causes of mental health issues among women are complex and can vary. Factors like societal expectations, hormonal changes, stress, trauma, and biological differences may contribute. It's important to recognize that each person's experience is unique, and seeking professional help is crucial for understanding and addressing individual circumstances.

Hi, I am Pragya Arora, a clinical psychologist. According to research, anxiety and depression are the top two mental health issues among women. The stress between balancing various roles and societal pressure can be challenging and it’s essential that we as women reach out to experts and get the help we deserve!

We were supposed to meet for coffee, but I kept canceling because I just couldn't leave the house. Finally, she came over, all worried, and that's when it all spilled out. The constant thoughts, you know, the ones that latch onto your brain and won't let go? Yeah, those. And the urges to do certain things, over and over, even if they make no sense?
