--New Thread! Please ask your questions here and Dr. Khan will answer them on the 15th.--
Salaam Everyone!
Topics: Mental Health & Communal/Familial Issues
This is the third such thread we will be doing. You might have seen the advertisements for this thread on this sub or others like it but if you haven't here is a short summary of what this threads purpose is and why it came about:
For the past few months, myself and a few other people (/u/MayorOfNeverland)! worked closely to come up with a way to make support for Muslims dealing with mental health issues more accessible via online platforms. After much consideration, we decided that the most feasible way to study the demand for online support is to begin on a platform that already attracts a large Muslim audience.
So we teamed up with the mods of r/islam and with their support we have begun a bimonthly “AMA” style thread.
A vetted Muslim mental professional, Dr. Fahad Khan (PsyD) , will come online to this thread and will try to answer all questions that the community has asked.
Dr. Fahad Khan will be online answering as many questions within that allotted time. So please try to post your questions ahead of the start time.
Disclaimer: All suggestions and recommendations are just advice and absolutely do not replace any medical or clinical recommendations given by your primary care provider or therapist.
\*The identity of those involved has been verified by the mods.***
