Anjana lost her aunt and maternal grandmother and talking about it, she said, “My maasi was not married, so I was with her in the hospital all the time, including during the chemotherapy sessions. The pain and suffering she went through in that one year changed a lot of things in me.”

Anjana spoke to her brother about her condition and realised that she was suffering from depression. “I kept telling him that some days I felt lost and hated speaking to anyone even on the phone when I was in this dark place, while on other days I was my usual bubbly self.” Then her brother advised her to seek professional help.
