SIMHAR recognizes that becoming entangled in legal issues can cause immense mental stress, particularly for those facing such challenges for the first time. The complexity and consequences of legal problems often trigger feelings of desperation, anxiety, and mental strain, overwhelming individuals and affecting their emotional and psychological well-being.

Legal challenges, such as debt traps, can exacerbate existing mental health conditions, triggering severe trauma, deep depression, and an overwhelming sense of crisis. For individuals already struggling with anxiety, these issues can magnify their emotional distress, impair logical thinking, and in some cases, lead to serious psychiatric concerns.
