Psychologist

Psychologist lives in a wired place in our thinking space. A psychologist is the one who deals with mentally unstable people, is what we think. That is true, in some aspects. What we are incorrect about is, who is mentally unstable? Are you? Am I? Saying no to such a question is convincing ourselves for the most part in my generation. So, what might be the answer?

You, just like me, lead a happy life on weekends and a disturbed life on weekdays. In other words, lead a happy life while having fun and a disturbed life while doing work. That means you are unstable on weekdays? Unstable at your work? Finding that spot is tricky. On the contrary, being happy doesn't mean you are stable, and being disturbed doesn't mean you are unstable. So, where do we stand?

This is where a Psychologist might help you. Having such confusion is a pain, and easing that pain is what such a doctor does. Every one of us is unstable in some aspect, and that single aspect festers in the back of the brain. Resolving such issues is crucial, ad we keep neglecting it. Adding to it, not all problems can be solved just through motivational thoughts. Our brain is an organ, and an organ might malfunction in multiple ways. We all know, when an organ malfunctions, medication can resolve the problem. So, there are certain situations where your brain needs medication, and delaying that might pull your life down.

Another point to add is, youngsters too need help from a psychologist. It is not as simple as "All your downfall is just due to that damn smartphone." There are students who cannot handle situations just due to some issue in their brain, and we all simply try to resolve those through "Work hard now to lead a better life tomorrow." My suggestion would be, to have a Psychologist in every educational institution apart from a General medicine doctor. Every single student should have frequent consultations with a Psychologist to sort out any mental dilemma.

This is harsh to accept, but we all are mentally ill in some form. Never hesitate to take help from a trained person for such issues i.e., Psychologists, as they exist for this very reason.

Today's content is provided by one of my BTech friends, Prathibha. Have a look at today's blog from a girl's perspective. I thank Prathibha for supporting the project. Invisible Pressure Our generation of students seems to be having fun and enjoying life, but we too are under the constant pressure of planning our next step. This has been way too much to handle and is leading to frustration for the masses. If you are a girl and you get a job, you are put on a schedule. Plan for marriage, then kids, then their education, and back to the start of their marriage. If you are a boy and you get a job, that very moment you'll have to take up the whole responsibility of family and handle everything as fast as possible. These pressures are building up in our minds and bring out either Bad results or A lot of frustation. We do understand the reason for our parents creating this schedule of life, but we all need some time to adjust. We only need a couple of things. Responsibilities...

Spending money is hell lot complicated than what I thought of it in my childhood. Every time I pull out some money from my pocket, I think whether to spend them or not, and I think even more after spending them. Planning to spend those bucks was very hard for me. The following two people helped me a lot on where to spend and where to save. Rohit Neelakantham Rohit Neelakantham      I met him at Idealabs. I knew him for about 4 days. We both were travelling in his car. As you all know, I just keep talking all the time. I asked him about his job and stuff. Then, I started asking about his car (Ford Ecosport #dreamcar). He was like, "I used to teach tuitions in my college days. I saved all that money and paid downpayment for this car which was around ₹.2 lakh." I was like, "Holy shit! You saved 2 lakhs from the fee you got from tuitions." He replied, "Yes. It probably took years, but I did save. I always had a dream of buying a car with my own money, an...

THE Journey

Lets read a story You with two of your friends who stay at Bangalore planned for a trip to Coorg. You have been planning it for a really long time, but schedules weren't supporting. At last, you three found time for an awesome destination. Three of you started at 5'o clock in the morning. On your car, way to Coorg. Weather was a bit windy, but you three were excited. After travelling one third of the distance, it started drizzling. Halfway point, it is raining now. Three of you have no thought of returning. You will complete this trip at any cost. You reach the destination and it's raining heavily. Took a room in a hotel, slept for the night. As you woke up in the morning, it is a thunderstorm out there. Whole day, you three weren't even able to go out of the hotel. So, you stayed till evening with some hope to visit at least a fraction of Coorg. Nope! Not happening. Whole day, it rained like it hasn't rained in years.  Successive day, early in the morning, ...
