Decked-up houses, fun social gatherings, authentic cuisines, and diverse cultural experiences – festivals are often considered a source of cheer and celebration. However, behind the allure of festivities lies another truth about the festive season – not everyone experiences festivals the same way, and not everyone associates them with happiness and togetherness.
The festive season is upon us with Raksha Bandhan and Janmashtami being the series openers. Many people will be gathering with family and friends, bringing in these and other festivals in their unique ways. However, during this time, it also becomes important to take stock of one’s mental health, to not alienate or even overwhelm oneself.
