Sarah and her friend's birthday party
Sarah was invited to a friend's birthday party. Although she liked her friend, the idea of being in a room full of people made her nervous. The day of the party, Sarah started feeling anxious hours before it began—her heart was racing, her stomach hurt and she kept imagining embarrassing herself in front of others. When she arrived, she stood quietly in a corner, avoiding eye contact and not knowing how to join any conversations. Even when someone tried to talk to her, she worried she would say something awkward or be judged, so she kept her responses short. Eventually, feeling overwhelmed, she left early and spent the rest of the night replaying everything she said and worrying she came off as weird.

Sasha avoids social gatherings
Sasha is 33 year old independent woman.Sasha thrived in her career, leading projects with quiet confidence. But outside work, social gatherings filled her with dread. Crowds weren’t the problem it was the questions. “When are you getting married?” “Don’t you feel lonely?” Each inquiry tightened her chest. She began skipping weddings, family dinners, even birthdays. Alone at home, she felt peaceful, in control.

Work stress of Harish
Harish stared at his laptop, eyes weary, the clock blinking 1:47 a.m. Another late night. His job at the tech firm paid well, but the endless hours drained him. Deadlines blurred into weekends; his coffee intake outpaced his sleep. One morning, he missed his train, heart racing not from the run, but the panic. Harish is very stressed with his work he is unable to find a balance. 24 hours is not enough for him. His mind is always running.

One bite at a time
Emma counted almonds, six for breakfast. Hunger was a victory, not a signal. Mirrors became judges, meals became math. Compliments fed the disorder more than food ever could. “You look amazing,” they said, not knowing she hadn’t eaten in days. At night, her ribs ached with pride and pain. One fainting spell led to a hospital, then a whisper of truth: this is killing you. Slowly, therapy taught her how to eat without shame, to see a body not as an enemy but as a survivor. Recovery wasn’t a straight line but Emma chose life, one bite at a time.

Group of six met every Thursday
Six strangers circled plastic chairs in a quiet basement of Mr.. William's house . A clock ticked louder than their silence. “I’m Tom,” one finally said, voice shaking, “and I miss my son.” Eyes met, pain recognized. Maya spoke next with grief braided in her words. Laughter surprised them later, over bad coffee and shared regrets. Every Thursday, they returned, not to heal entirely, but to hurt less together. Walls softened, truths unfolded. By week six, no one sat alone. They weren’t fixed, but they were seen. And sometimes, that was enough.

Lisa counted every bite that she took whether half an apple, five almonds, never more. Her mirror told lies her heart believed: “Too much,” it whispered. At 5’6”, she weighed barely 90 pounds, but still feared food like a monster under the bed. Friends stopped asking her out; meals felt like battlefields. One day, dizzy and trembling, she collapsed in the school hallway. In the hospital, her mother wept as Lisa finally said the words, “I’m scared.” That moment cracked the silence. Healing wouldn’t be fast, but for the first time, Lisa reached for life and not control.

Angela is 11 years old and loves to win. School felt like a constant competition, and second place felt like failure. One day, after crying over a spelling test, her parents took her to see the school counselor, Ms. Ramirez. There, Angela learned that doing her best mattered more than being the best. She discovered calming strategies, started journaling, and even helped classmates instead of racing them. When she came third in the science fair, she smiled and said, “I’m proud—I had fun.” Angela was still competitive, but now she was also confident, balanced and kinder to herself and that was the real win.

The alarm buzzed, slicing through the silence. I groaned, dragging myself out of bed. I didn't seem to be in a good mood. Coffee tasted bitter and the mirror reflected a scowl I hadn't intended. Outside, the world moved on, oblivious and I felt to be still. I sighed, hoping the day would offer a reason to smile.

Everyone experiences feelings of anxiety and panic at certain times during their lifetime. It’s a natural response to stressful or dangerous situations. For someone with panic disorder, feelings of anxiety, stress and panic happen regularly and at any time. I get panic attacks quite often during the day it becomes very difficult for me to overcome such situations.

I was very sceptical about group therapy when I heard about five years back. It was difficult for me to believe that it would be even an option to opt for but I gathered up courage and went for one and thats what starting making the difference When we hear about each other's experiences it helps us to open our mind and gives our thought process a different turn altogether. It helps us to re analyze and that's how we grow together and help each other in our journey. It was not easy but it was not too difficult either.

Depression crept into my life gradually. At first, I thought I was just going through a rough patch. However, as weeks turned into months, I realized something was seriously wrong. The sadness became overwhelming, and I started to feel disconnected from everyone around me. I lost interest in my favorite activities and found it hard to focus on anything. Even getting out of bed in the morning felt like an insurmountable challenge. The worst part was the guilt and shame I felt for not being able to "snap out of it." After much hesitation, I decided to talk to my doctor. It was one of the hardest things I've ever done, but also one of the most important. My doctor diagnosed me with depression and referred me to a therapist. Through therapy, I began to understand the underlying causes of my depression and started working on coping strategies. Medication has been a significant part of my treatment plan. Finding the right one took some time, but it has made a noticeable difference in my mood and energy levels. I've also started practicing mindfulness and self-care, which have helped me reconnect with myself. I’ve learned that recovery is not linear, and there are good days and bad days. What matters is that I'm making progress, no matter how small. Sharing my experience here is a way to remind myself and others that we are not alone. There is hope, and it’s possible to find light even in the darkest times.
