Abstract

In developing nations such as Pakistan, mental health disorders are common. The high incidence might be attributed, in part, to the inadequate understanding of mental health concerns and the low literacy rate. That might be the cause of Pakistan's extremely low number of psychiatrists. Pakistan has one of the lowest rates of psychiatrists in the WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region and the entire globe, with only 0.19 per 100,000 people, according to the World Health Organization's statistics
