“I’m used to it now. I don’t mind talking about it because people just want to know what it’s like, but other times, I get so offended by these questions that I just walk away. When it all started, that time at the concert all those years ago, I had no idea my life was about to go through a convoluted course that took me from raging frenzies to deplorable pits” Credits: Story: Nitika Gupta Voice: Mae Thomas

Ep. 01: Kimaya

“I started getting very low grades for all my homework. I was labeled below average. Even though I would know all the answers in class when I was asked, when it came to my homework, I was just not able to communicate it well. One of my teachers said that my work was “sloppy” and I wasn’t “working hard enough”. I was so frustrated and I didn’t understand why homework was so difficult”

“As my fingers slowly touched the skin on my wrist, it was like braille – each one of those bumps told a story. Every scar was a tale of pain that I wished away with every cut. And though I felt relief at that time, I soon realized, it wasn’t going to solve my problems.”

Ep 03: Zaira

“I dreaded waking up. Sleep was difficult for me, as I couldn’t stop thinking. I was exhausted and yet, my mind was racing. I could barely open my eyes and my body resisted movement of any kind. I couldn’t stay in bed, though I wish I could shut the world out completely. Waking up meant that I had to face everything; everyone, and that scared me”
