Some snippets from Monica’s Story, created for Mann Mela, a collaborative storytelling project by Sangath and Quicksand. Mann Mela leverages the power of lived experience to create awareness about mental health.

Monica’s story highlights how sometimes, the stigma of asking for help is the hardest thing to get past.
