IPS President’s Message

Dr Mohan SundaramPresident Indian Psychiatric Society Kerala

Dear esteemed members, We are witnessing massive changes in the mental health landscape of our state. As a result we are facing increasing challenges both professionally and personally. Increase in number of addictive disorders and suicide is an alarming reality. Legal issues in relation to psychiatric practice; mental health issues of special populations like children, adolescents, females of reproductive age group and elderly etc are very important issues in front of us. Stress and it's impact on doctors in general and psychiatrists in particular, needs special attention. I hope that the various programmes being planned for the year ahead will help us in facing these issues effectively. I sincerely expect and request the wholehearted support of all our members. Thank you. Dr Mohan Sundaram
