Sharing a part of my life journey with all of you—a journey that has been marked by challenges, growth, and the power of resilience. Throughout my school days, I grappled with very severe social anxiety, which not only affected my studies but also made it tough to navigate the toxic home environment I was in, especially within a joint family setup. Adding to the complexities, my mother's schizophrenia was an additional layer of struggle.
During this time, I faced immense internal battles, battling severe depression, self-harm, and even suicidal thoughts. I felt trapped within the confines of my own mind, with anxiety and despair keeping me confined within its grasp. There came a time when I couldn't even step outside my home for a whole month, drowning in overwhelming emotions.
But here's the thing—I didn't let these struggles define me. I reached out for help through therapy, leaned on the support of my understanding friends and family, and embraced sheer determination. I started taking small steps towards healing, recognizing the importance of self-compassion and the power of seeking help.
Throughout my trials, I found solace and inspiration in books—words that became my escape and a valuable source of insight. Additionally, at just 16, I embarked on my first solo trip to McLeod Ganj, a journey that opened my eyes to the beauty of the world beyond my struggles, instilling in me a sense of adventure and empowerment.
Amidst the ups and downs, my brother has been my unwavering support. His understanding, empathy, and encouragement have been my rock during times of distress. It was with the collective strength of my support system that I slowly began to heal.
I stand before you today as a testament to the strength that comes from embracing our vulnerabilities and the power of resilience. Each of us carries a unique story, but together, we can create an environment of understanding and empathy.
If any of you are going through similar struggles, please know that you are not alone. Let's uplift one another, share our stories, and find healing and hope together.
