Letter to Humankind by Himanshu Gupta

October 9, 2024

Dear Humankind,

I’ve spent a lot of time observing, questioning, and listening, not just to people, but to the silence between conversations, the moments when words are left unspoken, and the weight carried by those who never find the right space to express themselves.

What Started This Journey?

The stigma around mental well-being is everywhere. We see it in hesitation, in avoidance, in the quiet dismissal of struggles that are deeply real. We see it in conversations where someone hesitates before admitting they are not okay, fearing judgment rather than support. The world has made seeking help seem like a weakness, when in reality, it is the strongest step one can take.

If Not Now, Then When?

This question keeps me up at night. If we don’t change the way we approach mental well-being today, then when? If we don’t create safe spaces, accessible solutions, and conversations that make people feel heard, then who will? Mental well-being is not a luxury, it’s a human right.

Where It All Started

What began as part of my conversations, moments of realisation that people struggle to be heard, led me to explore how I could contribute to this space. Nervure was born from this need.

Nervure aims to create a safe place for those seeking support, whether they turn to another human or feel more comfortable asking themselves the questions they’ve been avoiding. Not everyone finds it easy to open up to people, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t have a space to process, reflect, and heal.

Expanding Our Mission: Supporting Therapists & Experts

Mental well-being doesn’t exist in isolation, it requires skilled professionals who guide, support, and empower. While Nervure is committed to creating solutions for individuals, we also recognise that therapists, counselors, and psychology experts need better tools to focus on the person/You.

That’s why our mission includes:
Providing AI-assisted solutions
Helping professionals reduce response fatigue
Bringing efficiency to therapy while preserving the human connection

Our Focus Areas

We understand what it takes to open up, to gently express feelings and emotions without fear or pressure.

That’s why we’re creating solutions for each stage of the journey:

Listening – A space where thoughts can flow without interruption, advice, or judgment.
Deep Dive – A structured way to understand emotions, uncover thought patterns, and explore what lies beneath the surface.
Guided Support – Step-by-step pathways that lead to clarity, self-awareness, and the ability to take back control.

Because that’s what matters.

This is just the beginning. The journey to normalising mental well-being, to creating safe spaces, to redefining how we engage with care and technology, it all starts now.

If this resonates with you, if you believe mental well-being should be as much a part of life as physical health, then join me. Let’s start this conversation, let’s build this space, because if not now, then when?

What does mental well-being mean to you? We’re here to listen.

Share your thoughts, and we promise to give them the attention they deserve, because every insight helps us improve the ecosystem for all.

With purpose,
Himanshu Gupta/Nervure
Mental Well-Being Partner, Founder of Nervure

Stay kind to yourself!
