ਸਾਡੀ ਗੱਲ · Saadi Gall
Start with 3 quick questions. You will see a private reflection first, then choose whether to add your anonymous answers to Saadi Gall so we can build better Punjabi mental-health resources. No name, no email.
Who are you here for today?
This changes the path. We only collect research answers when someone is answering about themselves.
What age range are you in?
Broad ranges help us notice generational differences without knowing who you are.
Where were you born?
Only a broad region. Never a city, pind, or address.
Where do you live now?
Choose a broad region only. This helps us understand where needs differ and where community resources should grow. We never ask your city or postal code.
Did you move to a new country?
This helps us ask about arrival only when arrival is part of your story.
How did your family's path here begin?
Choose anything that fits. We never ask legal status, visa type, exact route, or exact year.
Was it one move, or a longer journey?What was already here when the journey began?
Choose anything that fits.
What changed around school, work, or family roles?Which parts of that path shaped you?
Choose anything that fits your experience.
What language feels most like home?
Which roles have shaped your experience?
Choose any that fit. Different generations often carry different versions of the same responsibility.
Optional: which identity should recommendations reflect?
What should we understand better?
These shared questions let us compare what matters across different Punjabi diaspora paths without pretending everyone had the same experience.
When a day sits heavy on you, where do you feel it most? (any that fit)
If things felt really heavy, who would you go to first?
How do YOU feel about someone getting mental-health support?
And what do you think MOST Punjabis think about it?
That's everything we'll ask.
Next, see your personal reflection and a few places that might help.

Optional research questionsA few standard questions, separate from your story
Why separate? The main check-in is built around Punjabi family, migration, language, and culture. These standard questions — PHQ-2, GAD-2, and two short stigma and help-seeking scales — are kept separate so we can compare anonymous patterns over time without turning your story into a diagnosis. Skip any you want.
