When mental health support is delayed, the consequences can become irreversible. Awareness and timely care save lives. Most people do not need judgment during emotional distress — they need timely support, understanding, and treatment.
Star of Mysore covered the launch of Sarthaka Baduku with a powerful message from Sri Shivaratri Deshikendra Swamiji of Suttur Mutt: timely mental healthcare can prevent suicides. The article highlighted growing concerns around untreated depression, emotional distress among youth, and the urgent need for counselling and psychiatric intervention at the right time.
The report also spoke about how institutions are beginning to train teachers to identify early signs of depression and provide emotional support before a crisis develops. That shift toward prevention and early awareness is critical for communities across Karnataka.
At Cadabam's, we believe early intervention, rehabilitation, and compassionate care can change — and save — lives. If you or someone you know has been silently struggling, don't wait for things to worsen. Help is available.
