Development status and boundaries
This is an original Mindala adaptation under review, not a WHO- or UNODC-endorsed or validated expanded protocol. Public information is not personal treatment advice. Clinical, safeguarding, language, rights and usability review are required before a supervised pilot.
For immediate danger, seek local emergency help rather than waiting for a website reply.

Provider guides and participant worksheets are available for professional review. Test assignment, response and follow-up using fictional information. An approved professional account is required.
Content review → administrator approval → final production → clinical release decision. Accepting a walkthrough never releases treatment automatically.
