Deepak is 26 and is a compassionate and reserved person who belongs to  Chennai buzzing with art and theatrical culture. He has completed his education and works as a Manager at BYJU. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

His bucket of hobbies includes watching movies and reading books. He comes from a family of five and lives with them in Chennai. Deepak mentioned that he is not very close to his family and enjoys staying alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He slowly started experiencing problems in his relationships with his family, work and his friends which led him to take up counseling. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI had issues of keeping it to myself and not trusting people because of which I lost contact with many of them. As a result, I developed anxiety and started keeping it to myself.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\u00a0It later on became a problem for him. His friends bullied him and tortured him as he was a reserved person. He expressed that a lot of his friends were fake, manipulated him and he has always had a negative viewpoint towards his friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

His relationship with her parents, friends and other acquaintances was difficult to maintain. He realised that he had attachment issues with all the close people in his life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to low confidence and fear of confrontation, people around him started noticing that and started mocking him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“My friends bullied and mocked me as I was a reserved person. I started seeing how a lot of them were fake, manipulated me.” <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deepak articulates how he has always had a negative viewpoint towards his friends. He started overthinking about every tiny thing that happened around him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

At one point he reached a level of incapacity where he could not deal with it on his own anymore. His anxiety was soaring, his confidence was close to the ground and his unbeatable self-bias pressure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

“I was always afraid coming home and wondered if today there would be fights or not.” <\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

He grew up in a family filled with heated arguments which would often put him through severe stress, fear and anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAfter a lot of research on counselors from various platforms, I reached out to YourDOST through my organisation. I am glad and relieved to find my person on this platform.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deepak expressed, he understood that he had a social anxiety disorder. He kept himself hidden from crowds, work participation and much more and his counselor advised him to first get it checked by a psychiatrist in a hospital and then to present her with a report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cSanjana was such a good listener and is very empathetic as a person. I did not feel judged at any moment of my sessions.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

After building a successful rapport with Deepak, Sanjana recommended a few techniques where she asked him to analyse his fears and work through them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

He has started making conscious decisions, looking at their body language and studying the person thoroughly. His entire thought process changed and it helped <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He found these techniques easy to understand but unlearning and relearning new behaviours seemed challenging to him. But with time and determination, he was able to modify his behaviours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am thankful to my counselor, I found the right person to hear me out without judging my actions. He understood me from the minute I started opening up to her.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The journey has had a lot of back-and-forth manoeuvres, but Deepak has been able to carve a niche for himself, the techniques have helped him to boost his confidence and change his perception of various stressful situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He rated himself 3 out of 5 in terms of getting better and has a long way to go. He believes in the gradual process of building self. Today he is much more confident and has regained control of his life.<\/p>\n\n\n

Deepak’s Warrior Tips:<\/strong>
1.\u201cTry it once and then decide if counseling is good or bad for you.\u201d<\/strong>
2.\u201cIf you are not able to handle your emotions, there is nothing wrong with reaching out to someone to share your burden.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
