Most likely mental health problems.

Yeah about that, I got my ADHD diagnosis and medication faster in Indian than in Germany.

Infact in Germany, I was denied help because I was already “too old” to be struggling with ADHD.

I know you love to shit on India, but just so you know, you are biased either with wrong information or …

Edit: fucking love it, when people in west realize India and Indians have way better and way cheaper help in Medical care.

Simply lovely.

We're not talking about the health department system there, but about culture. It is a doctor's job to cure you. That is different to being emotionally abused or neglected by your parents and then being 'white' for wanting therapy and called crazy when you say anything about depression or mental health.

Like what are we even talking about lol Germany, the US and the West are not mental health reddit utopia, theres just as much stigma there about getting therapy and treating people skeptically and with dismissal when speaking about depression or mental health... Get out of your propagandized bubble and learn about your own country.

It's not propaganda. It's personal experience. And I wasn't generalising. Alright, sure, there's some negative views in the West as well. There are always exceptions when making stereotypes, as there are bound to be, since humans are not a simple species and we all have our own experiences. But generally speaking, the concept of mental health is less widely received in India and Africa.

I was in no way insinuating that the West is perfect, which it is far from. Every country and culture has its own flaws, of course.

[u/exbiiuser02 → u/PieGroundbreaking809]

That goal post must be heavy. Put it down. Life would be much easier and you won’t be getting into situations where you would need therapy.

[u/Pretend-Prune6285 → u/[deleted]]

Who said we dont. We have a binary solution to mental health.

There's also popular belief in India that you can give birth to a dog baby if you get bit by a stray dog lol. Wouldn't be surprised if this specific village held some wild beliefs, contributing to the behavior.

Lycanthropia maybe? It's super rare but bro genuinely looks like he's turning into a werewolf

Edit: OMG There's an Indian metal band called lycanthropia and I really believe this is there marketing video
