The intersection of mental health and disabilities is a complex and important topic. It involves understanding how mental health conditions can coexist with physical, intellectual, or sensory disabilities. Individuals with disabilities may be at a higher risk for mental health challenges due to various factors such as stigma, social isolation, and the stress of managing their disability. Therefore the 48th episode of the 2nd season of Gulabi Sambad is designed to promote awareness, provide support, and access to appropriate mental health services for this population to ensure their overall well-being. It includes an interview with Susmeera Aryal, an activist working for the welfare of people with psychosocial disability. This episode is designed in collaboration with Karuna Foundation Nepal. #mentalhealth #psychosocialmentalhealth #intersections #disabilities #SRHR #spotify #gulabisambad #KarunaFoundation #DPRP
