A Farewell Letter To My Best Friend
Hi T, According to the Oxford dictionary, ‘farewell’ is used to express good wishes on parting. While parting is difficult in most relationships, it is even more difficult when you part ways with your best friend of 15 years. We met when we were 12 years old. At that point in time, I never saw…

How Anxiety Affects My Day To Day Life!
I’ve talked about my crippling anxiety in a lot of previous posts. From being in control till 2020 to taking an ugly oppressive form in the post COVID era – me and my anxiety have come a long way. While I’ve mentioned the issues I have faced because of my anxiety, I have often realized…
