My story

I was born into a middle-class family, where I faced body shaming from a young age. My dark skin and slender figure were constant topics of discussion, not just at home, but also among relatives. I was always asked about my weight and complexion, making me feel like I was somehow inferior. This led to low self-esteem, stage fear, and a lack of confidence, causing me to become introverted and withdrawn. I believed that I was not good enough, that I lacked talent, and that I was only capable of doing mundane tasks. My parents, though educated, were not professionals, and I thought that this was the reason I didn’t have the ability to learn. I felt like I was a disappointment to my family. My academic life was unremarkable, with no notable moments or achievements. I thought that I was only capable of passing exams, not excelling in them. Over tension, anxiety & fear reached me into continuous headaches & health issues. However, when I was in the 10th grade, I started taking tuition classes, and for the first time, I realized that I had the ability to learn and understand concepts. This sparked a newfound confidence in me, and I began to work hard, determined to prove myself. I started to believe in my academic potential. This achievement gave me the confidence to pursue higher education.
I pursued a degree in chemistry and later did my post-graduation. Though I faced challenges, including migraines, asthma, and allergies, I persevered. At the time of my post-graduation, I got married, and my life took a new turn. Then I completed degree in education and became a teacher.

However, I still struggled with low self-esteem and confidence. I felt like I was not good enough, and that I didn’t have the skills to succeed in my career. I felt trapped and helpless. Began to face anxiety & depression.
One day, I decided to seek help from a psychologist, hoping to find a solution to my problems, but it only provided temporary relief.
