Physical distance, the funeral of respec

  "Today's session... "Physical distance, the funeral of respect." She uttered only one sentence, and to be honest, the whole session froze right there, as if someone had suddenly stopped time. There was no anger or scream in her voice, just a tired acceptance: "Doctor Sahib, they tell me: why do you always talk about this?" I looked into her eyes and said slowly, that slowness which is sometimes heavier than a scream: "Because you are always alone." See... physical distance is not just a matter of sex, it attacks more than the body, it attacks the mind and heart. It is that silent process in which a woman's self-worth is slowly buried. Research shows that when physical and emotional intimacy ends in a relationship for a long time, the same part of a woman's brain that is active during deep trauma or mourning becomes active, meaning her brain registers this distance as loss, and if loss happens day after day, it takes the form of depressio...

I felt ashamed talking to friends and family, and I was afraid that they might make fun of me.” For people, their own story is very important, they don't want anyone to hurt their feelings, but they take a strange pleasure in making fun of other...

The silent war between husband and Wife

Yesterday’s session…❤️ “The silent war between husband and wife… that no one sees.” It was a typical Pakistani couple—outwardly “fine”… but completely broken inside. Today was their third session. The wife was clutching her dupatta tightly… and the husband kept glancing at his watch—classic avoidance behavior. I said, “Today there will be only one question… How do you both feel when the other is not there?” A shadow fell over the wife’s face. The husband immediately responded defensively, “Doctor, there’s nothing else; it’s just misunderstandings.” I gently replied, “Sometimes misunderstandings are just unspoken wounds.” At that moment the wife began to speak, her voice filled with pain, “The loneliness… that no one sees.” She said, “Doctor, we haven’t talked for years… they just give orders, criticize, and say I’m overreacting. I’ve spent countless nights alone… even while living in this house I feel emotionally homeless.” Hearing this, the husband was stunned—perhaps hearing it for t...
