- Abstract
Many decades has passed since the Indian Association for Social Psychiatry was founded, and the social psychiatry movement in India began, but overall growth in this discipline has been gradual. In India, the field of psychiatry is rapidly expanding, and there is a need to reflect and consider what may be done to address the issues of social psychiatry. In recent years, it has been stated that social psychiatry is in trouble as an academic and medical discipline. We have attempted to highlight the importance of social psychiatry and its current state, developments, and challenges in this article. We also tried to envision future scenarios and offer suggestions for overcoming obstacles.
