Depression

Depression can often manifest differently within BIPOC and South Asian communities, where cultural stigma and societal pressures may lead to underreporting and misunderstanding of mental health issues. In many cases, emotional struggles are dismissed as personal weaknesses, pushing individuals to silently battle their feelings rather than seeking help. This lack of open dialogue can perpetuate cycles of isolation and despair, as community expectations may discourage vulnerability. Rooted in cultural values, the urge to prioritise family honour and maintain a façade of strength often exacerbates the experience of depression, making it critical to create supportive spaces where individuals can share their experiences without fear of judgment. Realising that seeking help is a strength, not a weakness, is essential for fostering healing and resilience in these communities.
