I\u2019m quite close to my parents and have a younger brother too who is specially abled.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Chandranshu shares a great bond with his younger brother and is quite protective of him. He always made sure that he doesn\u2019t treat his brother any differently. Growing up in a family like this made him quite open-minded and sensitive. Soon after high school, Chandranshu moves to a new city to complete his graduation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;College was great. I fell for a girl. I used to be with her for almost the entire day. I had no idea four years had passed and issues began to surface after we graduated from college and began working in different cities.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/yourdost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Chandranshu-blog-image-YD-warrior-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20220 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/250;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Although relationships are worth fighting for, you cannot do it alone. Chandranshu was so scared of losing the love of his life that he found it difficult to set boundaries in the relationship. He pretended to be okay in a lot of scenarios where he clearly wasn\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>\u201cI didn\u2019t stop her from doing anything. Even if that meant getting my feelings hurt. Once she spent quite some days at a colleague&#8217;s place and stopped responding to my calls or text. I won\u2019t say I was insecure about the guy but I was disheartened.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Chandranshu understood that even if a relationship is based on mutual efforts, this one had only him. He believes that his ex-girlfriend had this notion that she could do whatever she wants but Chandranshu will not walk away and he did not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cWe dated for almost 6 years but I couldn\u2019t take it anymore. I was mentally and emotionally exhausted. That\u2019s when she broke up with me.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/yourdost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Chandranshu-blog-image-YD-warrior-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20221 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/250;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Staying in a toxic relationship is hard but walking away from a 6-year-old attachment is harder. He didn&#8217;t know how to react to the situation and couldn&#8217;t fathom what had just happened because it all transpired so quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>\u201cI was numb. I thought to myself that I had just gotten out of a 6-year-long relationship, I should be sad, I should be crying but I didn\u2019t feel a single emotion. I knew I couldn\u2019t live like this\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s when he decided to talk about it and counselling was the best option. BYJU&#8217;s association with YourDOST as the official partner for mental wellness helped him find the perfect therapist for him &#8211; Mr Kailash. The moment he met him, he knew that this was it. He was empathetic and validated Chandranshu\u2019s feelings. When asked about his first impression of his counsellor, Chandranshu jokingly said,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cMr. Kailash is a great guy. I fell in love with him. So glad he wasn\u2019t a girl.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chandranshu&#8217;s therapy sessions got off to a great start, and he continued to work through the techniques and exercises his therapist recommended, making sure he didn&#8217;t miss a single one of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/yourdost.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Chandranshu-blog-image-YD-warrior-3-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20224 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/250;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>\u201cI finally started feeling okay with the breakup. I felt and accepted things. I have a habit of overeating whenever I\u2019m stressed and I feel I\u2019m getting in control over it too.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Chandranshu\u2019s family was very supportive throughout his struggles and was glad he healed himself from the breakup. Expressing his gratitude to his counsellor, Chandranshu said,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;Dear Kailash, Thanks for being there. I am not sure if you noticed but you&#8217;ve been a live saver for me&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Chandranshu believes that the best way to progress is to be self-reliant and that the finest part of therapy is that we get to talk about our feelings. Even though he feels the session hours are limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He rates himself a 2.5 out of 5 in terms of getting better and is confident that he\u2019ll be a 5 soon! The toughest part of letting go is realising that the other person has already done so. But our warrior not only moved on but also made sure that he healed himself, which is a mark of a true warrior.<\/p>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color: #677373;\"><strong> Chandranshu\u2019s Warrior Tips:<\/strong><br \/><strong>1. Learn to let it go if a person did something wrong to you instead of being angry at them. <\/strong><br \/><strong>2. You can talk to someone about your problems and it\u2019ll make you feel better but talking to a therapist will heal you. <\/strong><br \/><strong>3. Live for what today has to offer, not for what yesterday has taken away. <\/strong><br \/><strong>4. Love is unconditional.
