Unlock Your Mind
A clinical review published by MIOT, in the renowned medical journal of Clinical Epidemiology and Global Health (based on the learnings from studying over 3300 COVID-positive patients), shows how COVID-19 impacted their mental wellbeing. Also, losing dear ones to COVID-19 can trigger emotional responses like fear, anxiety, anger, sleep disorder, restlessness and depression, leading to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. This can take a serious toll on the overall health and mental well-being and in some cases, it may even lead to self-harm.
Since the start of the pandemic, MIOT specialists have not only treated over 9500 COVID-positive patients, but even provided emotional support to them and their attendants.
Having understood this importance, Dr. Prithvi Mohandas, Managing Director, MIOT Hospitals launches an unique initiative “UNLOCK YOUR MIND”, a COVID-specific emotional support programme to get patients and attendants back on track from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder caused by COVID-19
The ‘Unlock your Mind’ programme is for:
Patients suffering / recovered from COVID-19 & their attendants who are undergoing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder caused by:
- Extreme stress
- Isolation
- Long COVID syndrome
- Loss of dear ones
- Separation
- Suicidal thoughts
- Survivor’s guilt
- Detachment
- Health issues
- Hopelessness
- Societal stigma
- Grief

The programme is also designed to assist those suffering from the consequences of the pandemic like:

How the programme helps:
‘Unlock your Mind’ introduces patients & attendants to Psychiatry specialists at MIOT Hospitals, who share their expertise on dealing with emotional issues brought on by COVID-19 through consultations. Apart from psychiatric counselling,
