As Miss Teen India Orator 2025, author of Imperfect, and a 17-year-old who has learned to live life all alone- yet all along- with others, this book feels like a part of my body. Like an organ I grew through hardships, it carries the lessons that bullying, mental distress, and disorders have taught me. Depression and social alienation have always been more of a teacher than school ever was. I’ve learned a lot, yet there’s still so much more to understand. This book- more like an organ of mine- is a compilation of all the experiences I’ve been through and my perspective on this often gruesome world.
