This was the first time in my life when I stepped into a mental treatment hospital and saw things that are difficult to narrate. We met a young guy about 19 years of age. His name is Ahmed and he is Ahsan's cousin. Ahsan told me that Ahmed became a victim of serious mental disorder just 3 months ago and now his condition has deteriorated so much that even his dad can not control him when anger surrounds him from all corners.
Ahmed's dad had requested Ahsan earlier to pay them frequent visits and spend some time with Ahmed so that he may feel better and get rid of this sudden insanity. The moment we entered Ahmed's room, he stood up like a kid and crawled towards Ahsan with a smile all around his face. He seemed extremely excited to see Ahsan and welcomed him like a normal man. He was speaking with his tearful eyes only without even moving his tongue. He seemed silent and would speak little. He seemed a healthy teenager with great strength. Ahsan took him out of the room and offered him cigarette. He loved it and started smoking like he was smoking his last. Ahsan is a happy-go-lucky person so he started funny conversation with him and tried to distract Ahmed from his gloominess & loneliness. Ahmed would often smile when he was asked questions about female staff members. I was just looking at Ahsan's stupid questions and was wondering why was he reacting this way and why did he offer the kid cigarette. But to my curiosity, I found Ahmed enjoying Ahsan's company. I left them enjoying their funny talks (Ahsan speaking while Ahmed remained just quite behind a seldom smile) and went to meet Ahmed's dad in patient ward.
I asked uncle for reasons due to which Ahmed lost his mental stability. Uncle's story was indeed strange yet a thoughtful message for many parents who fail to give their children the rights they deserve.
Ahmed was 10 years old when his father sent him to boarding school. He was a homesick kid who loved to remain close to his parents but due to business matters his father had to sent him to boarding school. After completing his secondary classes, Ahmed was sent to Bangladesh where he stayed for more than 3 years. During this long period he remained thirsty for the love of his parents. In school he was often bullied and would face sexual harassment. The moment his dad realized the tortures he had been through in August 2012, Ahmed was far from being normal again. His dad accepted all his mistakes and requested us to help his kid recover from this hell. I was literally dumbfound after I heard the story. I am really not able to put everything into words. Ahmed's tears are still framing in front of my eyes. Imagine a guy who was normal 3 months ago and turned into a mentally upset case today. Ahmed asked me that he also wishes to join gym and ride my bike. I smiled at him and promised that his wish will soon be fulfilled. I hugged him tightly and then left for gym.
Everyone of us has some rights and we are normal as long as we are provided with these necessities of body and soul. Keep your loved ones close to yourselves and never abandon a being. Learn to spread love as much as you can and hold firmly to the trust people have on you. Be kind to God for creating you in perfect shape and colors. Never keep a bird in cage and never snatch from others the right to smile and laugh. Never break someone's trust and never stop fighting for your rights. Ask for it boldly when you know its your right to demand it. Never remain silent when a situation needs an answer because silence is an act of cowardliness and you are indeed better than this. You could have been in Ahmed's place but you are blessed with so much happiness around, so remain kind for everything around. I am sorry I could not write a tutorial today because I could not stop thanking God for his countless blessings. God bless you always brothers and sisters. May you have the best of life.
