Iron Box & I
We started getting know each other when I was about…one year old. A little too well, a little too fast. I must have just achieved the milestone of walking with support. So, while I was off honing my skills, my mother quickly ironed my sister’s school uniform for the next day, unplugged the not-still-burning-hot iron box and contained it in a closed-door room. Only after this did she pick me up…
08:18, For the Parents of an Adult
It was 2 AM in the morning and I was down with a fever. All I wanted to do is call my mom, whine, eat her rasam and be pampered. I didn’t do it, of course. But, it got me thinking. I only call my mom at the extremes. The despair of a sudden miscarriage- I wanted to run to my mother. The joy of a milestone met in my practice- I wanted to call my mother. The in-betweens- not so much. The day to…
12:04PM: My Thoughts on Grief
The stages of grief, according to Elisabeth Kubler-Ross, in the order of experience, are: Denial Anger Bargaining Depression Acceptance As I’m a psychiatrist and therefore assumed to be in the pink of my mental wellness, I’ve been trying to skip to the acceptance stage. I figured, as a mental health “expert” that can keep their emotions in a firm check, denial and bargaining were futile,…
My thoughts on major life changes
They don’t come knocking; major changes in life happen and you only realise they’ve happened once you’re on the other side. The only choice then, is to learn to accept it. I’ve recently received a double whammy of major changes. Just as I was getting used to major change no. 1, it was taken away and now, I see myself having to get used to major change no. 2. It’s been a doozy. Since I was…

Why is that lump in my throat right now?
The most random things make me well up at times. Today, it was the separation from my husband while driving to work. So, for the last couple of weeks, we’ve been leaving the house together in the morning- me to the clinic in my car and him to the lab in his car. We drive along the same road for almost two-thirds of the route before splitting up at an exit. We’d gotten into a routine of calling…

Hallowe'en Party by Agatha Christie
It’s a beautiful cover, there’s a movie I need to watch, so I picked it up. Color me surprised when I noticed I hadn’t read this particular Christie before. I thought I had them all in my noggin. But, as the pages started turning and stereotype after stereotype piled on, I surmised it was for my own good. Now hear me out. I’m a huge, bonkers-kind of Christie fan. Despite the colonial British…

A Man Called ove by fredrik backman
It’s not a new tale- a grouchy old man and his new bubbly young friend. However, the way Fredrik Bachman writes breathes life into these caricatures, makes them people that you want to know, befriend and fall in love with. Ove is our titular grouchy old man. He has a routine, discipline, and a sense for how things should be. But, with time, everything keeps changing; and change, however…

The Big Read
365 days 100 books So, I have taken up a challenge. I’m usually not good with challenges; unless they last for…like a day. Long term challenges have me busted because I run out of patience way before I should. My father says it’s because I lack discipline; and if you see the state of my room at the time of my typing this, you will agree with him. But, today, right now, I’m setting out to…

Wilder Girls by Rory Power- The Tox Makes Me Rant!
I didn’t like it and there’ll be spoilers.
So, wilder girls, in case you were living under a rock is a story about a pandemic. Only, it’s kind of worse. Arms fall off, eyes peel shut and bones go crazy. But that’s how world is now and the girls at raxter school are just trying to survive.
Let me start with a positive:
The prose has its merit. It’s got this short, choppy sentences…

Step 2: Know Where You're Going
Step 2: Know Where You’re Going
We all have those nights when we’re lying awake, eyes burning, mind shut down and yet, unable to rest, unable to close your eyes due to some unnamed fear, a tingle at the back of your brain that you’re afraid to poke, but unable to ignore. This post is being written during one such night.
This post is also written for those people who’re frustrated- with the feeling of wanting to do something,…

The Maiden Flight: Beyond Boundaries by Saurabh Sahay
Mr. Sahay, a veteran of 40 years of corporate service, turns to words to help occupy his long lonckdown hours. What results is an anthology of life lessons, distilled from his varied experiences and encounters and narrated in the tone of an affectionate grandfather.
