World Mental Health Day 2024: How to Tackle Mental Health in the Workplace—Insights from Experts

By Amrita Tripathi

This World Mental Health Day, the theme is Prioritising Mental Health at the Workplace. We’d love to hear from you; what are your questions and comments around this?

Watch a conversation I had with a mental health advocate with lived experience: Shubhrata Prakash, IRS Officer and Author, the D Word, and a counselling psychologist with more than 2 decades of experience globally: Arpita Anand. Both are long-time friends of The Health Collective.

Fun fact: Arpita Anand is also the co-author of our book Real Stories of Dealing with Depression, in which we feature Shubhrata’s story. Buy your copy today if you can find it at indie bookstores or online!

We also took one of your questions to Arpita on how to start formulating policy in the first place! (Watch the video around 22:19)
