My take on babita

Firstly, I am really glad she decided to go back.

I have had issues with certain things babita has done in the past but after watching yesterday’s episode one thing is clearer to me than it’s ever been and that she needs to get professional help. Perhaps it’s ptsd or some other sort of mental health issue but she’s got something wrong with her (I don’t mean this in a bad way). As great of a help mini is to her and her mental state, mini has got her own issues and can’t put that aside to fix babitas issues also. On the one hand she’s grown so much in character and strength but on the other hand she appears so broken. I think if they show her getting help from a therapist she can finally break free from all the bonds that hold her and fly. Initially I thought her insecurities came from ashok rejecting her but they seem deeper than that. Maybe it’s a lifetime of taunts for her husband not being around or what I’m not sure but she is REALLY insecure- about everything. I think both babita and mini will benefit from therapy, separately. Perhaps even HS also!

Perhaps it’s another issue the show can tackle- how seeking help for mental health doesn’t have to be a stigma

family counseling required

@inlieu they would definitely ALL benefit from it for each of the separate issues they have. On their own at first I think before doing it together as a family

I had mentioned this many moons back. Babita needs therapy. Along with Mini. Both fluctuate a lot. Justifying their behavior as their characters being flawed is not the answer to mental health issues. Mental health issues are still considered taboo especially in Indian society. It will be nice for PB makers to show this.

I also think it would be a fascinating angle for them to take before/after the love and marriage angles.

On a scary note if it weren’t for Hs how would someone like babita Make it on their own post divorce when she literally becomes a nervous wreck at every little thing. I would love to see properly emancipated not just see little snippets of it an then have it disappear again
