Psychiatrist Dr Nandkumar Mulmule said, “A person runs here and there in his entire life to find happiness, but, he does not understand what real happiness is. Every person has different concepts of happiness. He/she does not even realise when his mental health deteriorates while searching for it. Mental health problems have arisen on a large scale due to the desire for unrealistic happiness. There is a huge shortage of psychiatrists in India compared to the population for mental treatment.”
