Shanvi'S STORY

Hello everyone, myself Shanvi. I am a 15-year-old girl and I want to share my mental health journey with you all. I 'hope' it will motivate you all. I was a very extrovert person who loved interacting with people, who was always excited, happy and enjoy with her friends and family. 

Soon in around 2020-21, I started noticing a severe change in me and my habits. I no longer used to speak to anyone no more interacting with anyone, surviving with limitless thoughts going in my mind . I was losing my self-confidence day by day I was not more the same, but I was not at all ready to accept the fact that I was in depression or any other issue. I used to get hyper at every small things, it was getting nearly impossible for me to survive.

I started cutting off myself from my friends, I was even mentally abused by so many toxic people that I started disliking myself a lot. I started showing people that yes I'm truly a very happy person when I actually wasn't. I was not at all confident to answer in classes or to speak to my teachers. All these mental issues started affecting me physically, I started facing tremendous shivering in my hands continuously. In November 2023 my case was worse. There were even a few days when I was not able to attend my classes. 

Then I came to Divya ma'am, I started working on my issues, She understood my issues and we started working on my issues. She informed me I need a few therapy sessions and I will be fine soon, From my first session I started feeling better  I started experiencing unexpected positive changes in my life. My hand shivering was stopped without using even a single medicine. Maam helped me way a lot in understanding my issues and getting clarity for my thoughts. Now, it's five months to my therapy and I'm almost completely fine. I again gained my confidence and understood the importance of self-love. 

Lastly, I would just like to say that:-

"Mental health is equally important as physical health, let's each one of us take a stand for ourselves. Therapy helps us way a lot to find the LOST SELF. Please remember, you're not alone it's okay to ask for help it's always BETTER LATE THAN NEVER."
