More awareness needed for mental health

THE EDITOR, Madam:

Dr Michael Abrahams wrote a very good article on depression. There is a lot that needs to be done to spread awareness. I can’t help thinking that there should be a television programme in which expert presenters can talk to people about their self-hate, depression, or other disorders and how to overcome them. Many people who need help don’t even understand their problem, and others have no one to talk to.

I think Dr Abrahams should start such a programme.
