What is wrong with Intimacy today?

I know the weight of being a healthcare worker — especially as an immigrant.

I woke up today to news that felt like a glimpse into a cold, digital future. A 24-year-old woman, suffering from Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), tragically took her own life. What makes this story particularly haunting is the confirmation that her diagnosis and her final moments were tied to an AI. She had been constantly discussing her condition with ChatGPT; her final conversation was not with a friend or a therapist, but with an algorithm.

We all know that India is diverse. We read the news, we watch debates on television, and we see fragments of society reflected back to us every day. Yet knowing of a country and truly seeing it are not the same.

From childhood, I have heard a statement repeated endlessly—on television, in movies and  in casual conversations, and in the world around me:    "A woman is a woman’s own biggest enemy."

Many international students come to Canada to study, but most are really searching for a way to build a life abroad. Some don’t even know what they’re supposed to take away from their courses — they enroll, complete the requirements, and move on. Education becomes a step in an immigration process, not a space for transformation.
