In my clinic and sessions, I meet many students who are not broken by life...

They are broken by someone's words.

Sometimes it starts with just one line:

"You can't do it."

"You're not good enough."

"Look at your face..."

If a child is already sensitive or struggles with self-doubt, these statements do not fade away.

They linger in the mind for years, like background noise that never stops.

My own daughter went through this – in Grade 1, her teacher scolded her severely for talking to a friend, and after that she became so quiet in school that by Grade 10, almost every teacher told me, “She is very Bright but she does not talk to anyone” years later while watching a movie with a similar scene, she looked at me and said, “Mummy, that happened to me too.”

Research also shows that repeated use of hurtful language can gradually damage self-esteem and increase the risk of anxiety and depression over time.

I have seen confident students go completely silent after being publicly insulted by a teacher, parent, or friend, and I have also seen anxious teenagers gradually open up and blossom because someone chose to speak with love instead of judgment. Treating and speaking with love can boost mood, confidence, and a sense of connection, especially in young people.

That is the power of words.

They can be a wound or a turning point.

An obstacle or a blessing.

So today, pause for just a second before speaking to your child, student, colleague, housekeeper, or even yourself.

Ask -"Will my words heal, or will they hurt?"

You might forget that sentence in a minute.

But the other person will remember it for a lifetime.

If you are reading this, perhaps it is to remind you,

Be that one voice of kindness in someone's story🙏

Sometimes it is not that we do not want to talk.

It is that we have forgotten how to.

You sit with your family at dinner. Everyone is laughing, talking, sharing stories.
And there is a small voice inside you that wants to say something real -something you have been holding on to for a while.
But just as you are about to speak, another voice in your head says,
“What if they don’t understand?”
So you smile instead. You change the topic. You stay quiet.

And slowly, that silence starts to feel safer than speaking.
With friends, it is the same. You laugh, share memes, talk about random things.
But when it comes to what is really going on in your heart, you hesitate.
Maybe trust was broken once.
Maybe someone judged you.
Maybe your truth was used against you.
And since then, you told yourself,
“I will handle it alone.”

That is how walls are built - not suddenly, but one small hurt at a time.
It is not that you do not want to connect.
You do. You crave it.
You just don’t feel safe enough to let someone in anymore.

And that is okay.
Healing is not about tearing down all the walls in a day.

It is about learning, slowly, that not everyone will judge you.
Not everyone will leave.
And not everyone will misunderstand.
Sometimes, it just takes one safe person to help you open up again.
And sometimes, that safe person is you ☺️

Everywhere I go, I see one common truth - our young generation is struggling silently with stress, anxiety, and loneliness.

During my recent session at Meerut College, students openly shared the symptoms of anxiety and depression they have felt. Many admitted they were not sure if these were physical or psychological issues. We also discussed warning signs of su***de - a topic that made everyone pause.

Before this, I had conducted almost the same sessions at IIMT Group of Colleges, Vidyapeeth, Shri Venkateshwara University and several other schools and colleges. And every time, I found the same concerns repeated. This shows us that mental health challenges are real and growing, especially among women and young people.

What struck me most was the students’ curiosity. Even after the session ended, they gathered around, asking questions about their own mental health. This clearly shows how eager they are to understand and heal — but also how little guidance they currently receive.

From my 23 years in psychology, I have seen that most psychological problems have roots in childhood. Childhood is the fastest learning period: how we think, our self-talk, how we solve problems, and how we manage emotions - all of these patterns are formed early. Parents and environment are the biggest influences. When this foundation is weak, children grow up struggling with stress, loneliness, and self-doubt.

We can’t change everything overnight, but we can start with practical steps:

Parents’ orientation sessions & workshops - to equip parents with the tools of “right parenting.”

Emotional literacy in schools - teaching children how to recognise and manage emotions early.

Community support systems - so adults know how to listen, respond, and guide without judgement.

These may look like small actions, but if we start early, we can prevent so many mental health struggles later.

This generation is ready to ask questions and learn. Now it is on us — parents, teachers, professionals, and communities - to give them the right answers and support.
