CHILDHOOD HISTORY

MEMORABLE EXPERIENCES
The subject does not remember much from her childhood. She remembers when she along
with her mother used to go to nani house in her vacations and used to see birds chirping, wind
gazing and her nani used to make tasty dishes for her. The subject was very close to her nani.

UPSETTING EXPERIENCES-
The subject experienced some upsetting moments in her childhood. Her maternal
grandmother with whom she was so close died, which came as the most traumatic experience
in the subject’s life, it brought a lot of despair.

CHALLENGES FACED
Amidst the death of her maternal grandmother and its post effect, the subject failed fourth
standard which again was a big challenge for her.

OVERCOMING CHALLENCES
With the subject failing in fourth standard, her mother was a big support to her, and she
helped her overcome it. She did not criticize her for this unlike other parents, rather she
helped him in studies and she started taking her outside to make her feel better and also her
friends also supported her a lot.

ADOLASCENT AND EARLY ADULTHOOD

MEMORABLE EXPERIENCES
Here as we are talking about both adolescent period and her current phase which is early
adulthood. There were many memorable experiences. At the age of 16, she presented a self-
made poem. From childhood, she had this stage fright but since she performed and also got a
lot of appreciation for that, she overcame her stage fright. Also she had many memorable
experiences in college being with friends who supported her a lot and also in college she met
the love of her life whom she married at the age of 26 which was again the most memorable
day of her life.

UPSETTING EXPERIENCE
At the age of 21, when she was partying and was at her friend’s house where all her
classmates came. She was drunk that night and one of her classmate attempted to rape her
which is still her biggest and horrifying nightmare, Although she majorly moved on from it
after some time with the help of his friends and her boyfriend.

CHALLENGES FACED
She married her boyfriend at the age of 26. Since then, her lifestyle changed. As she is a
perfectionista, every small thing started irritating her. She was not Able to adjust with her in-laws as
they both never really agreed on anything. Unlike her in-laws, subject wanted everything to happen
perfectly. According to her, if it’s not perfect it should not be done and there’s no chance of
improvement that either a person does it in first chance or he is not capable of. These small problems
were starting to become big as misunderstandings grew between the subject and her husband that they
were on the verge to take divorce.

OVERCOMING CHALLENGES
Subject’s mother supported her a lot and made her realise her mistake and that she should try
to compromise with some things and that it’s okay to not be perfect at times, things seemed to
improve, but after few months, things just got back to as they were after a incident that
happened between the subject and her in-laws. Her in-laws left the subject alone at home and
left for Amritsar which really hurt the subject. Since then, the subject is no more living with
her in-laws. She is staying with her mother.
RELATIONSHIPS

WITH MOTHER
The subject is very close to her mother. Infact, she is the only close person to her currently.
Her mother has always supported her and been with her when the subject was ridiculous to
handle. Subject’s mother has always taught her to never give up on anything and she is the
reason why she is yet fighting.

WITH YOUNGER SISTER

The subject is not that close to her younger sister. Being the elder one, she could not really
share anything with her sister and also due to the age gap between then. They interacted very
less, and they never really tried to talk about each other’s life. Subject’s sister was busy with
her life and so was the subject.

WITH FATHER
The subject is not at all close to her father as her father used to be out most of the time due to
business purpose.

WITH HUSBAND
The subject and her husband started their relationship at a great note. There were many ups
and downs in their relationship but they both always fought against them which made them
close enough. But since the problem with her in-laws started, there were so many
misunderstandings that started taking a home in their relationship because of which they
started to drift apart eventually.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS
The subject’s financial status is good. She is self-employed, so she is not really dependent on
anybody for her basic needs. Her in-laws are all educated, so there is no problem financially.

CAREER ASPIRATIONS
The subject is currently a makeup artist and runs her own makeover. Her plans ahead are to
be more successful and run her own business worldwide. As she has just gotten into this
business, she is not yet satisfied with herself. She sees herself at a much higher level which is
her biggest positive point.
