A Voice Unheard
“I am depressed at home” is an answer we continuously get when we reach out to friends during this lockdown. But this word that we so carelessly use is very different from clinical depression - a serious medical illness that negatively affects how you feel, think and act. During this time where we are compelled to stay at home, isolated from the rest of the society to ensure the safety of our physical health, it’s important to recognise that it’s taking a major toll on our mental health as well, especially to those who are already suffering from an existing psychological disorder.*
Being a prisoner of your thoughts can be extremely overwhelming to cope with and is easily misunderstood by others. So, instead of hearing, looking and passing by - listen, see and observe. Not every smile carries joy and not every voice is heard. And remember, while a ‘Post-COVID’ phase will begin in the near future, not everyone will have the strength to make it through another day.
