Hi friends,
It’s been long since I have written a blog.
I felt that lock down would give me a lot of time to write blogs, but things
were completely opposite. Day starts with work and ends with work. In fact,
today I was forced to write this. I read an article today from Times of India
where a renowned Graphologist has analysed SSR’s handwriting after his tragic
end. After reading it, the only thought I had was what if this Graphologist
could have had a chance to meet SSR in the early stages of his anxiety or
depression.
Friends, lots have been spoken and will
be debated for long, till it will cease naturally, I do not intend to go in
that direction. The person who ended his life is not waiting for any justice or
any ones answers, but he and many others like him who follow this path have
made us think, why this happen and can it really be stopped? I know someone who
is having a depressed family member. That friend of mine is standing rock solid
with the patient. It is indeed not at all easy to manage in such a situation.
Ask those who have a son or daughter going through stress, anxiety and
depression at such a young age?
So, what can we do? They say one should
listen to them. But are those in depression willing to talk it out? What we can
only do is try to identify these signs early and that is the only time they can
share their thoughts. In graphology, one can see the negative traits in a
person’s handwriting and also suicidal tendencies to some extent can be
identified. But what’s the use of finding them, when the disorder is in the
clinical stage? We can help kids in their early stage of stress. I have seen
that when the child crosses the age of 15, he/ she feels he/ she is strong enough to
manage his/ her own life and does not need any ones help. So we have to make the
wrongs right, in the kids below 15. Friends, if each one of us can stop even
one kid from going in that direction, it will be life’s purpose served. Let us
try and help them from an early age. Let us bring the change, by making small
changes around us.
