Why do people commit suicide? What is the point when they turn away from life, their loved ones, and decide that death is much better than living?
“I have had so much of struggle since my childhood. I was born without sight and had to struggle even to get an education. But for me proving my capability was like a potion. No sir, ending my life was not an option. So I went on living, struggling and making it a success on my own,” says Dr Samir Mansuri.
The same grit, dedication, and focus of never giving up have sustained him throughout his life. As a celebrity Ayurvedic Beauty expert, he helps his patients and as a man of internal strength, he counsels his patients, friends, and their family to find their focus in life.
“Never give up. Life is a very very precious gift from God. Life is incomplete without problems. And believe me, there is always a solution or an alternate path to these problems. One should have faith in themselves. Depression can be sorted out. In fact, one should approach for help before reaching this state. Depression should not be allowed to control you,” adds Dr Samir who has helped many to overcome this defeated state of mind.
Today in the COVID-19 period, too many people are depressed for different reasons and many are taking their own life without thinking of its consequences. “I have decided to speak out because I know I can help out many.”
Success stories galore
Comments one of his patients and friend Nisarg Joshi, “I was a patient of severe depression and I had given up on everything in my life. I used to think that life has no way out for me. I had developed a very negative and pessimistic approach to life. Then I met Dr. Samir Mansuri in 2016 and underwent his counseling sessions. Gradually my thought process changed and my perception towards my life and lifestyle underwent a major change. Today I am a changed person all thanks to his contribution to mankind in this field. I am happy with a peaceful and positive mind frame. My life has now taken a drastic change and with this positive approach, I am able to achieve all the goals. Thanks a ton to Dr. Samir Mansuri.”
Besides him, people like Dr Ganik Mansoori and many others are indebted to him for the guidance and advice.
