You Are Not Alone
YARANA
YARANA provides confidential consultations for individuals
(18 and above) dealing with distress or
despair, including those with mental health
challenges. Friends or family members of
individuals with mental illness can also
seek advice. YARANA is staffed by a
panel of Qualified Consultant Psychiatrists
who offer free, anonymous guidance. While
not a crisis intervention, diagnostic or
treatment, Counselling service, it serves as a
confidential platform where experienced
mental health professionals provide guidance
on managing daily life and furnish
information on valuable services. The goal
is to help individuals find relevant
resources, build confidence, and support
their recovery. Queries can be emailed, with
responses provided via email or a call from
a volunteer within 5 days.
What can we discuss?
People contact us with diverse concerns, understanding that what
may be trivial to one can be substantial to
another. Whether dealing with a new
challenge or persistent struggles, we offer
extra support. Don't hesitate to reach out
even if your specific issue is not
mentioned. Common reasons for seeking help
encompass relationship issues, loss,
financial stress, job-related pressure,
academic stress, loneliness, depression,
physical illness, substance use, or thoughts
of suicide. We won't decide for you but will
back the choices you make, recognizing that
you are the expert of your own life; our
advice or opinions are secondary.
