Dhara's behaviour was definitely toxic with raavi in the haveli track.expecting someone to be normal after a life changing experience is a foolish thing to do, and it drains out a lot of energy of the person who tries to be happy for others sake.
We had a professor who used to say telling a depressed person to be happy is the worst advice you can ever give.
Let them cry,vent out and heal.
Some things you can do if there is a depressed person in your family.
1) consult a psychiatrist.
2) take care of their food habits, personal hygiene, help them in keeping their room clean and organized.
3)listen.just be there for them.
4)a change in place can work wonders sometimes.if it is not feasible a small vacation might help.
5)try to restore their faith bit by bit.this is the most challenging thing.they should not feel too isolated nor too overwhelmed.
6) most importantly give them unconditional love and support.
Healing from depression is a slow process that requires a lot of faith and patience from the person suffering from it as well as his family.
What a well written postđđ
ITV and mental health are always inversely proportional and mental health is used as scapegoat for drama and TRP which is highly sickeningđ¤˘
In real world we are having so much trends and awareness on mental health especially since last year and on the other hand ITV jokes around with mental health
