💔 My heart breaks for 22-year-old Manav from Valsad, Gujarat.
He lost his father and quietly became the only support for his mother and younger sister. Every day he woke up early for one job, then delivered Domino’s orders in the afternoon, carrying crushing debt and silent pressure no one around him fully saw. On Sunday afternoon, June 7, the weight became too much. His mother never imagined he was hiding so much pain. So many do.
If you’re reading this and it feels like the world is ending, if the pressure, the debts, the loneliness, or the darkness feels unbearable—please ask for help. You are not weak for reaching out. You are brave. You do not have to carry this alone.
I lost my father at a very young age, just like him. I have a younger sister and my mother. We persevered through very dark times. I feel his pain, his pressure, and his agony of being helpless. It becomes really dark and unbearable, but people around you pull you out when you confide in them. Do not keep it inside. Just talk, express yourself, cry, shout, break shit, vent it.
