“Can’t Remember Anything”: My Investigation On The Poor State Of Bangladeshi Mental Hospitals
People don't have a lot of idea about mental illness in Bangladesh, but mental health problems are increasing daily. The number of people suffering from mental health problems is more than the number of doctors to treat them. The largest mental hospital is in Hemayatpur, Pabna. It was established in 1957 and although it is enormous, it lacks a modern methodology to treat mental health problems. The hospital has 500 seats, and currently, 450 seats are occupied. Each day approximately 200 to 300 people come for treatment here and leave with a medication prescription; only the most serious cases are admitted into the hospital. Those who work in this hospital also face a lot of risks. Sometimes the nurses are victims of attacks by the mentally ill patients here.

To be fair; it is clean and not over crowded. I've seen pictures of much worse places

There should be better context and back ground information to this story. Some of the pictures look like family members are taking care of the patients. It's very confusing

It makes me so sad to see the erosion of humanity. These things still happen in many countries. And the global overload on fragile support systems is evident.
