Now that you have used it, what do you think about the website and the program in general?

Response Relevant codes
  • Participant (P1): What I thought about the website was that it was a great way for me or anyone else to start. If I’m facing some problems and most of us are shy about sharing them with another person. So the website or the modules were a great way to start thinking about how we will tackle those problems, so combined with a counsellor or any person who is willing to help, the modules are a great way to start.

  • Interviewer (1): So you think this is a great starting point. Can you give me a little bit more of … how do you think it will help? Once people start thinking or you know, start getting aware …

  • P1: So like yesterday I was talking to one of my friend and he said that he is facing some problem around … on like admin front and all that, I suggested him to go and see a counsellor but he was shy about seeing one and had some inhibition. So starting with the modules he does not have to meet anyone or tell his problems to anyone, and once he has started these modules he will know that it is perfectly okay to have problems and he will be more open while sharing them with people or with counsellor and seeking further help. That’s what I think … that the modules are a great starting point.

  • I: Okay that’s nice, that’s great. So you think that it reduces that … can I say stigma related to actually seeking help?

  • P1: Yes, it will help in reducing the stigma around mental health problems.
