Описание: Adolescent Depression, Panic Attacks & Suicide Prevention | Interview with Dr. Arun B. Nair & Mr. Robins J Alapatt

“Today’s adolescents are more digitally connected than ever — yet emotionally more isolated than any generation before.”

In this powerful and eye-opening conversation, Dr. Arun B. Nair, Professor of Psychiatry, joins Mr. Robins J Alapatt, COO & Co-Founder of Resorcio, to discuss the growing mental health challenges among adolescents. Together, they explore what teenage depression really is, why it is increasing, and how it is often misunderstood as “just a phase.”

Dr. Arun explains how social disconnect, emotional isolation, and reduced human interaction significantly contribute to depression. Although adolescents spend more time on digital devices, the lack of meaningful relationships and emotional bonding is deeply affecting their mental well-being. The discussion also highlights the lack of parental awareness and how ignoring early warning signs can delay timely support.
