M ere bete ko schizophrenia ki samasya November 2011 mein aayi jab who

achanak saamne wale padosi ko ulta-seedha kehne laga ki uss padosi ki
awaazein usse sunai pad rahi hai aur microphone ke zariye usse control kiya ja
raha hai. Hum log uss baat ko samajh nahi sake.

Baad mein kisi ke salah par humne ek medical college mein psychiatric doctor
se sampark kiya. Vartamaan samay mein ladke ka ilaaj shuru hue lagbhag teen
varsh ho chuka hai. Ab ladka lagbhag poori tarah se theek ho gaya hai, lekin

abhi bhi ek samasya hai. Woh yeh hai ki yadi usse koi vyakti daant de toh woh
aakramak ho jaata hai. Lekin agar usase koi prem se baat kare, toh yeh har
kaarya karne mein tatpar ho jaata hai.

Doctor ke anusaar ladke ko kisi job mein lagna chahiye. Ladka khud kehta hai

ki woh job ke liye kisi bhi shahar mein jaane ke liye taiyaar hai. Lekin job ke
saath-saath uska dekhbhaal karne wala bhi toh hona chahiye na. Job bhi woh
sirf computer field mein hi kar sakta hai kyunki use sirf computer aur data

entry mein ruchi hai. Hum toh Allahabad mein rehte hai. Kya aisi koi NGO ya
company hogi jo mere bete ka sahi rehabilitation kar paayegi?

M y mother is a patient of schizophrenia and I suffer from depression. But

with medication, we are leading a happy life. However, people treat us like we
are from another world. I have done my graduation along with diploma in
journalism from London. I am a freelance writer working with several
companies. I have even written one novel. I wish that people like me don‘t

suffer at the hands of other people in society.
