So I met this boy at my building complex. Just a regular day, I was going to work. Saw this boy sitting alone in the corner talking to himself. I had my bike parked there so went there. He saw me and stopped talking and just stood up and went away. Basically the place I parked my bike was kind of left out that is no one went there and couple of vehicles were parked there. So I noticed this thing for many days. He did different things. Some day he cried, some day he laughed, some day he use to say "Good son proud of you great job!!" that is use to praise himself. Now finally I decided to talk to him. So it was Sunday and I went to him and said hey...
He replied to me very politely and asked how I am..? So I just sat with him and we kind of talked for hours. So I kind of developed a friendship with this boy and he also enjoyed my company a lot.
After all this what I understood is that he was depressed. He told me all his pressures anxiety depression and all. The struggle that child was going through taught me a lot of things.
So let's start his story:
Born in a middle class family. Parents were strict and never understood him right from the day he was born. Mother was very strict and always beat him up. Just scolded him and beated him on small small things. She often beat him up even if it was not his fault. In his earlier life dad was understanding and a good person whom he would love but later on his dad also changed. Had no real and good friends had no one to support him or say him that we are proud or encourage him or love him. Despite all this he always loved his parents. Got into his teens puberty hits. Thinks now the life would change. As he see the environment at his friends house. Parents understand help children no more scolding and all. So he thinks his life will also change from now on but things are fucked up.
Things get even worse. Parents doesn't let him out. No freedom at all. No privacy. Doesn't allow him to go out. Even with friends they deny him. So friendship gets affected. No one is his friend. All alone. Got many pressures. Getting suicidal thoughts and all. Finally he understood nothing will change be happy with ourselves. Tried to interact less with parents, got in his own world. Considered imaginary parents who are very good and are always with him so he shares everything with them and loves them the most. So this is his current story.
Hope good things happen with him.
