The bollywood obsession of healing

 Millenials and Gen Z even have grown up watching the classic bollywood cinema and one thing that the bollywood cinema can't get enough of is the main character fixing and healing their better half.

Don't get me wrong, relationships can really help you with your own issues and can really help you grow as well.

But Bollywod has made it look like the only solution to someone's problem is getting them hitched.

Think about someone suffering from an actual medical mental health problem or maybe an alcohol or drug addiction and the solution is get them married and committed.

I have been huge on the idea of healing yourself first and then getting yourself involved in a relationship and that's the thing I recommend to my clients as well. I try to focus on their own healing first, making sure they are mentally ready for a relationship. Because when you get into a relationship with your own baggage it tends to have an adverse effect on the overall relationship and in the hindsight hurting your partner as well.
