Mera Astitva, a struggle for existence, deals with mental disorder problems characterized by abnormalities in the perception or expression of reality. Different people behave differently but abnormal behaviors can lead to one’s own self-destruction as well as can endanger society. The show involves a short story/act to introduce a psychological problem and a thorough discussion with psychiatrists on the given topic. Mera Astitva through short acts briefs about psychological problems such as depression, anxiety disorder, schizophrenia, childhood disorders, impulse control disorder, personality disorders, adjustment disorders and family problems and how they affect a person’s thinking and judgment leading to hallucinations, paranoid or bizarre delusions, or disorganized speech and thinking. These behaviors create misunderstanding not only for a person who is going through this but also for others. In the show, people/viewers can find information about the causes and treatment of such mental problems, including information about new medications being developed to combat this illness. Early treatment is the best remedy to all diseases. Consulting a psychiatrist is the best advice but many people do not want to show a sigh of abnormality. It is not necessary that everyone who consults a doctor is abnormal. Psychotherapy doesn’t harm anyone and that is what the Psychologists and psychiatrists ensure patients. The show ends with doctor’s answers to frequently asked questions on psychological problems and their cure.   |
