Thank you to the person who is actually doing the research. Maybe reading the actual paper once it is peer-reviewed and published, will help. I believe OP is not the researcher? The moot point being whether all the points that OP highlighted are actual causalities that have led Nepali diaspora to a point where mental illness is now 'endemic'? I beg to differ. How will the researcher measure prevalence of mental illness? Are those variables that OP mentioned, measurable? How are those variables any different than what any Filipino, Vietnamese, Djiboutian face in US? Will those same measures apply to folks who are in Nepal or in Liberia? Is "Life in the modern world" a cause for mental illness? Is this steering towards philosophy now? Eagerly waiting for the paper to be published. Best wishes.

Let us know when this article is published. Thank you.

In today's world, a fellow Nepali like him deserves a medal. I also wished to pursue psychology major, but couldn't. Believe just studying engineering, medicine or technical stuff thinking about the money you make later doesn't lead you a happy life. Best wishes! Last edited: 30-Apr-17 06:34 AM

What is the solution??Every one has depression,anxiety its been like common disease these days,what is the solution to this problem in our community??

Important topic. Hope it gets its due coverage.

Not trying to judge ,but maybe it's being written just to get a ta position, or some funding publication,eb1 green card who knows..just cuz someone is doing a research doesn't mean he or she is trying to make a profound change in the society

Whatever be the reason, I hope it helps everyone.
