In the 21st century, the fast-paced lifestyle often causes people to neglect the importance of mental health. Despite people embracing the fact that mental well-being is of utmost importance, very few people are aware of factors that have an impact on the mental health. Mental health is impacted by the demographics of people, their sleep pattern, the level of exercise and even the extent to which people spend time with their families and friends. Another issue that persists in India is lack of awareness of counsellors and tendency of people to have a negative attitude towards counsellors. However, the best mechanism of getting the mental illness treated is by the help of counsellors. Nowadays, more and more people are being diagnosed by extreme anxiety and prolonged periods of depression. Since the symptoms of these diseases are not easily visible, many a times people are not able to understand the causes of these diseases. This research paper focuses on gaining an insight on the factors that has the most significant impact on the mental health of people and ways in which they can get treated. Moreover, we are trying to understand the underlying reason why people are not visiting counsellors to get treated.
