To keep up with the fast moving world, individuals often experience anxiety and stress to a certain degree in their day to day lives. Is therapy a luxury or necessity is one of the most important questions to be answered in today's generation. To shed light on this, a panel discussion was held on the occasion of World Mental Health Day, organized by GoodMind.co. 
GoodMind.co is a mental wellness platform that aims to make mental health wellness affordable and accessible. GoodMind embraces hope and fights stigma by promoting best practices that encourage people to seek mental care and ensure that it is available and accessible. It was founded by two college students- Saniya and Fawaz. GoodMind.co Is being incubated at EdVenture Incubation Foundation - India’s First Student Focused Startup Incubator.
The Panel was diverse, having counsellors and entrepreneurs as speakers who are doing great work in their respective fields. The panellists were- Meraj Faheem, CEO, EdVenture Park, Pratibha Somu, Counsellor, Sarosh Samdani, Counsellor and Jayanthi Subramanian, Co-Founder of Doctorite. The panellists shared their views and understanding when it came to therapy and their perspective on how often one should seek therapy. Panellists Sarosh Samdani and Jayanthi Subramanian said “In order to normalise mental wellness, we have to address it as health and not mental health which would help us understand that therapy though it looks like luxury is a necessity”. The panel discussion was attended by students from Nizam, Shadan, St. Ann’s & other colleges, corporate workers and was housefull.
