Built for real Punjab

Recovery that actually fits your life

Talk in Punjabi. Be understood.

Every counsellor speaks ਪੰਜਾਬੀ, हिंदी and English — and knows pind life, chitta, the OOAT system and the realities behind the headlines. No translation, no looking down.

How our counsellors are trained
Talk in Punjabi. Be understood.

Real medicine. Not willpower alone.

Buprenorphine, naltrexone, OST — prescribed by Punjab-registered de-addiction doctors on the same call. Quitting is a clinical process, not a moral test.

Medication-assisted recovery, explained
Real medicine. Not willpower alone.

Family on your side, not on your back

Family support track

From Punjab's own de-addiction specialists

This is medicine. You will recover.

"Addiction is not a weakness — it is a treatable brain condition. We have treated thousands of young men and women across Punjab who are now clean, working, raising families. The day you call us is the day it starts turning around. That is not a slogan. That is the data."

Frequently asked

Will the police or my family find out?+

No. Calls are confidential under DPDP and India's Mental Healthcare Act. We never inform the police. We never call your family unless you ask us to. The only exception is an imminent threat to life, where the law requires action.

I have tried to quit before and failed. Can this really work?+

Yes. Relapse is part of recovery, not the end of it. Modern de-addiction medicine (OST, naltrexone, buprenorphine) plus structured counselling has a recovery rate of over 60% in Punjab cohorts. Most people need 2–3 attempts. You are not broken.

Do I have to pay?+

Crisis triage, counselling and family support are 100% free. Government OOAT clinic referrals are free. Private de-addiction doctor consults start at ₹0 with a govt referral or ₹499 without. Medicine delivery from ₹59.

What languages can I speak in?+

ਪੰਜਾਬੀ, हिंदी, English — every counsellor on the line speaks all three. No translator, no awkwardness.

What about chitta, smack, opioids?+

This is exactly what we are built for. Punjab's opioid epidemic is what RecoveryOS exists to address — alongside alcohol, prescription pills, cannabis and synthetic drugs. Our doctors are trained specifically on Punjab's drug profile.

I am calling for my son / brother / husband — not myself.+

Good. Family is often the first move. Our family support line coaches you on what to say, when to step in, and how to get them to the call. It is free and confidential.

Carry recovery in your pocket.

Daily check-ins, relapse rescue button, your counsellor on speed-dial, and a private journal that no one else sees. Free to download.
