'Most of us don't realize how much is too much until our grief, regrets, guilt, anger, and other negative states of mind and feelings begin to wreak havoc on our minds and bodies. We tend to be very forgiving to others (this may not be the case with all of us), but continue to sabotage all our hopes and inspirations that otherwise are capable of reshaping our lives and of those around us. We find it very difficult to change, to stop self-loathing, thinking we are done for.
Then, after a certain period of time, you hear a faint voice of hope within you, wanting to put in all your efforts for a good change. Call it a miracle or your God-given ability to bounce back, you start to cling tightly to this rope of hope, not letting yourself drown.
This collection is an attempt at sharing human suffering in the hope (and with a prayer) that it comes to an end or, at least, we find ways to alleviate it. Through these stories, I aim to sensitize people about mental health conditions and be compassionate to each other (I don't claim to know everything about the mental health conditions or states of mind mentioned in these stories).
These stories are inspired by the lives of people I know and love and circumstances that have shaped my understanding of mental health as an individual, and professionally speaking, as a journalist, Gandhi Fellow, and development professional.
