Our Story

It started with a visit to a government hospital in Mumbai.

I saw families camping out in basements and parking lots. Some had been there for days, waiting, hoping to meet a mental health professional. The psychiatric wards were overcrowded. The air smelled like damp walls and dirt. People were in visible distress but the system was too stretched to see them as anything more than a case-load to manage. Those "patients" were being treated with no dignity or care. Some of them said they had been locked up for years.

It was shocking. But being angry wasn’t enough. I knew I had to do something. Something that didn’t wait for policy change, funding, or perfect conditions. Something that started from the ground up and benefitted people from the grassroots level.

Here’s the reality:
Fewer than 0.3 psychiatrist for every 100,000 people Suhas S, Arvind BA, Sukumar GM, Banandur PS, Nirisha LP, Kumar CN, Benegal V, Rao GN, Varghese M, Gururaj G; NMHS National Collaborators Group.

80% of people with mental health issues receive no support at all https://swachhindia.ndtv.com/80-per-cent-indians-with-mental-health-issues-dont-seek-treatment-say-doctors-84133/

So I built unBurden Chat Buddy, a free, anonymous space where people can talk without fear of judgment. Not a therapist, not a crisis line, not a fix. But a place to vent, to reflect, to feel heard. In your language, in your time, on your terms.

When users express that they’re in crisis, the platform immediately guides them to helplines and a mental health professional directory. It also offers tools and psychoeducation grounded in approaches like CBT, mindfulness, and cognitive restructuring presented in a way that’s calm, respectful, and empowering.

Because everyone deserves to feel heard. And for many, this is where that begins.
