India's Overworked Youth: Mental Health Crisis

India's Overworked Youth: Mental Health Crisis

Imagine you're always told to work harder and faster, even if it makes you feel stressed and tired.

That's what's happening to many young people in India.

They're working long hours, sometimes without enough support, because they feel like they have to succeed.

This is causing lots of stress and mental health problems like anxiety and trouble sleeping.

Many can't slow down because they need the money.

To help, workplaces need to be more supportive, and communities can offer help.

The goal is to make it okay to prioritize well-being and redefine success as more than just working all the time.
