In many Indian families, pain is rarely named. It shows up instead as strict parenting, emotional distance, fear of authority, people-pleasing, or the quiet belief that our feelings matter less than our duties. These patterns are often accepted as “normal,” passed down without question from one generation to the next.

Drawing from psychology, research, and lived realities, it looks at why these patterns persist and, more importantly, how they can begin to heal.
