  • This is Me..!!

    I have changed, I have evolved. From a place where it felt like standing in midst of a muddy pool, looking around I saw dirt on myself and on everything around me, it felt this was the only place I knew. I had no idea on what resources I could use to get out of […]

  • You are empowered within and without by knowing, feeling and accepting yourself. Do it for the sake of you.

    Mental stigma is prevalent and prominent enough to address. My social and individual hemisphere was fabricated with this stigma and its connecting lies for a very long time with much pervasivity. I remember as a literature student we were given the opportunity to analyse the bizarre associated with racism, feminism, mental health etc. I was […]

  • It took a lot of Unlearning and Relearing, applying what I learnt in therapy to my life and the difference baffled me.

    I am a doctor. I was working day in and day out during my internship and taking care of my body. I was having good number of friends, had enough money to go out and buy things that give me happiness. But still it all felt superficial. I noticed some people slipping away from my […]

  • The strongest stigma sometimes is the one in your head. 

    “Come on, there are real problems in the real world. When you forget how to be grateful and stop taking your duty seriously is when you get all these stupid notions about being depressed or anxious or whatever the hell it is that you are convinced you feel.”  Raise a hand if that feels familiar.  […]

  • Finding Therapy

    The first instance when I should have realized that I needed to consult a therapist was back in 2017. In the midst of a tough summer, I began encountering frequent bouts of nausea. It was a time when I realized that I might not make it to a university of my choice, or any place […]

  • Mental health Stigma: A hindrance for help and Compassion

    Recently I was on a flight to Delhi, although it wasn’t my first time I never clicked on the flight attendant button above my head. It could be that I never had a requirement or perhaps I lacked confidence and courage to do a simple regular task of communicating with other human being. But this […]

  • How my narcissistic parent made me believe I’m a failure…

    I’m 26 years old and realized that I have been a victim of narcissistic abuse only a few months back. I won’t lie, it was heartbreaking. Out of all the people in the world, your own mom considered you as her competition. I was shattered when I knew this. It took me days to accept […]

  • Patience

    Written by “Jahnavi” To say patience is a virtue is an understatement. It’s really more of a skill—one that can be learned and needs constant nurturing. Patience is the state of being that occurs between experience and reaction. Whether you’re trying to be patient with yourself, others, or life, it seems to always involve the […]

  • “THAT PERSON”

    Written by “Sai Prasanna” Being not scared is not an easy job. If one does not fear of anything then I truly appreciate that person because I am scared of many things. I’m scared of being alone, I’m scared of finding new friends and scared of my own self. I’m scared of everything in life […]
