This is the seventh episode of Mind ki Baat, a Newslaundry podcast with a neurodivergent host with a focus on the invisible epidemic of mental health issues in society today.
This episode and the next will focus on trauma, an emotional response to a deeply distressing or disturbing experience that overwhelms one’s ability to cope. It’s a complex and multifaceted topic, and can stem from a multitude of reasons.
In this episode, we look at trauma experienced by women due to sexual or other types of violence against them. It’s a subject heavily discussed in the media, but it’s also a subject that isn’t adequately understood, especially in terms of the impact it has on a victim’s everyday life and behaviour. The gravity of the situation can be summarised by the fact that many women wanted to speak on this podcast – but couldn’t, for various reasons.
This episode features conversations with Divya Dawar, a senior clinical psychologist who regularly works with women who have faced violence and abuse. We also talk to Nidhi Suresh, a journalist who reports on gender-based violence.
