She had been struggling with regulating her emotions and also found maintaining relationships very challenging. She has dealt with Depression and severe mood swings all her life. But at the sma time she was very creative in all her endeavours. More often than not she would self- sabotage her relationships and changes in mood were working against her. She says that she has been diagnosed with Borderline Personality disorder and explains how it has been living with it for her. She talks about the importance of therapy and how it has made a difference in her life. She has consulted several psychiatrists and psychologists to help her through the disorder and now finds herself in a good place after struggling for years with it. She also stresses on the importance of couples therapy and how it can help resolve conflict within a marriage. She says that parenting and childhood trauma can have a profound impact on one`s present and future and leaving things unresolved can derail our lives completely.
This conversation with Gowry Lekshmi focusses on Mental health Awareness and the profound impact that professional help via psychologists and psychiatrists can make in one`s own life. the wide array of subjects that she talks about can help dispel stigma surrounding Mental Health. Kudos to her, for sharing what she did on our show.

I started my therapy right after her Josh talks..I am diagnosed with BPD ..Me and my boyfriend went to see the psychologist and pshycartist together but later onwards after knowing about my problem and my behavioural issues he left me...I am struggling but still i have a hope..I am taking medication and will start therapy soon..So guys if you can't love your partner at her worst or if you are kind of person who can't deal that shit together means please don't fall in love with hyper sensitive human beings..I wish no one should go through the emotional instabilities I am undergoing rn...let everybody can fight their battle stronger💫

Well done Gauri for the awareness. Mental Health is extremely important and the Malayalee parents need to starts to to provide a good & strong mental health to your kids , rather than buying material things for them. Actually, Mental health is very important than a physical health. Because when you are mentally strong, you can handle a physical illness: but if you are struggling mentally, you can’t even enjoy your physical health.

Amazing conversation.so impressed with the way she reacted to the questions .👌👏

[@laks1t148]

I love when i hear such discussions about mental health. I went to therapy 3 years ago and my life changed soo much. Another thing that chnaged me was reflecting on yourself, understanding your personality is soo reveling. I took myer’s briggs personality test and understood I was Infj. That connected a lot like the map Gowri mentioned. Thanks Dhanya for bringing such uplifting inspiring talks ❤❤❤

[@TheMathrubhumi]

Can you suggest therapist that you consulted

[@gayathrik1388]

I like the thumbnail " Therapy changed my life". Because now also there are lots of people who doesn't know the importance of therapy. Recently I have watched reel on insta, in that video she was telling useless degree is psychology and therapy is useless. Still I don't know how ppl can be senseless in "2022"!!!. I studied psychology, I am a consultant psychologist. So I just want to tell the people that please don't give wrong information and if you are not aware about it please don't tell anything. Mental health is very important as physical health! Thank you.

[@divya1848]

She's pouring a lot into our insights. Life is vividly potrayed in that phrase nature and nurture.

[@gladsonmathew3385]

In a therapy, more than therapist, the client can have amazing and wonderful life experience even amidst their most traumatic experience. So I would never ever label any client into any diagnostic labeling. Precisely because they would start labeling themselves very much adversely by googling, so better don't push them into that trauma also.

[@ayshabinthnoor]

But therapy is not affordable:(especially when the reason of your mental health is financial instability. I know therapist also need financial stability. But what to do.

[@aidajose764]

U can try organizations like mindpeer which offer sessions around 400

[@hertravelstories]

There are good govt hospitals dear. It's all affordable to general public. We just don't go there because of the stigmatized talks about mental health. Let's outgrow that old mindset and depend on govt hospitals ❤️😊

[@everafter___designs]

Every community health center has a mental health clinic as far I know. In my area it's on Friday. You can go and consult them. They are very good in my experience

I took a timeout from my MIL. I am pregnant and tired from household works. And now jobless too. MIL has no exposure to outer world and whatever I say, she always undervalues my relatives. So finally at the peak, I just started to keep quite. പുള്ളിക്കാരി അത് എന്റെ husbandinod പറഞ്ഞു വല്യ scene ആക്കി. ഞാൻ സംസാരിക്കുന്നില്ലെന്ന്.. (Actually I do talk. But just reduced.) എന്റെ അവസ്ഥ ആരോട് പറയാൻ? Pregnant ആയിരിക്കുന്നത് കൊണ്ട് തന്നെ കാലിലേയ്ക്ക് blood flow കുറവാണ്. കാല് മരവിച്ചിട്ട് പലപ്പോഴും ഒറ്റക്കാലിൽ നിന്നിട്ടാണ് cook ചെയ്യാറ്. വേദനയുണ്ടോ എന്ന് ചോദിക്കുകയല്ലാതെ പോയിരുന്നോ ബാക്കി ഞാൻ നോക്കിക്കോളാം എന്നൊരു വാക്ക് പറഞ്ഞു കേട്ടിട്ടില്ല. ഞാൻ ക്ഷീണിച് കിടന്നാൽ ക്ഷീണം ഉണ്ടോയെന്നു പോലും വന്നു ചോദിക്കില്ല. പകരം ഞാൻ മിണ്ടുന്നില്ല mind ആക്കുന്നില്ല എന്നൊക്കെ husbandinod പോയി പറഞ്ഞു കൊടുക്കും. പുള്ളിയ്ക്കാണെങ്കിൽ എന്റെ വശം പറഞ്ഞിട്ട് മനസിലാകുന്നുമില്ല. പോര് കുത്താൻ വരുന്നില്ലല്ലോ എന്നതാണ് മറുചോദ്യം. പോരല്ല, concern ഇല്ലാത്തതാണ് വിഷയം എന്ന് പറഞ്ഞാൽ അതൊക്കെ ഒരു റീസൺ ആണോ എന്നാണ് മട്ട്.

Can u plz tell me what kind of therapy u went.. can we go for a normal counselling.. or something paticular..any name

[@hertravelstories]

@@JNABBA Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is what I took. There are other therapies like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), EMDR, etc which are given for different different disorders. Please consult a clinical psychologist who has experience in trauma victim handling. Then openly talk to them about your life, even good things & bad things you did during your normal days & trigger episodes. Then they will analyse your whole life and suggest you the right therapy.

[@JNABBA]

@@hertravelstories thank u so much for ur reply.🥰. can u also tell me how much it is for per session consultation cost.. i know its varies. But still want to get an idea...

[@hertravelstories]

@@JNABBA Private doctors charge differently. Minimum 500 to 1500 it might go i think. But if you don't have any shame issues, you can visit govt hospitals. It's cheap and best.

Glad to see Malayalees discussing about living happily ‘ living a good life and identifying emotions ‘ coping mechanism and moreover Mental Health. It is the most important thing in life. Your life is programmed in the 1st 7 years of life. Then rest of the life is like driving a vehicle. Once you learn driving carefully focusing on breaks’ accelerator’ Gear’ etc’ then it becomes automatic. Your subconscious mind controls your emotions and behaviours. Learn about yourself’ Love yourself’ forgive everyone and most importantly you. The most amazing thing is ‘ Complete Change is possible .
