A patient looks up from her bed in a crowded hospital ward, in Muzaffarabad, Pakistan, Thursday, Nov 10, 2005. No one knows her name and she has spoken just three words in the past three days: 'Take me home.' Doctors say mental trauma, ranging from anxiety and depression to acute psychiatric disorders, are widespread in Pakistan's quake-hit part of Kashmir, and that just a handful of trained specialists are available to treat it. With most hospitals and clinics in ruins, and tens of thousands of injuries to tend to, coping with mental problems has been a low priority for international relief teams, but one that experts say could have a profound impact on society in the long-term.
