2.Leaving India for the United Kingdom to continue my research career,I felt more out of place than before.At work,I shied away from discussions,let alone putting forward my opinions- I was afraid my colleagues would see me through and realize how weak I really felt.Some mornings,just stepping out of my room and going into the lab seemed a challenging task.
That began to change after a quiet breakdown in the lab urged me to contact the university's mental health services- I was advised to attend a concert by a famous singer from my motherland .There I was in the packed concert hall,surrounded by strangers — all of us clapping and singing along to the familiar song.It was a complete victory- I've changed a lot since then.
Soon,I planned a day trip to a picturesque city a few hours away。As I took pictures of the beautiful surroundings,and enjoyed a lemonade there,I realized nobody was really paying any attention to me.My confidence and self-recognition grew as I enjoyed more local day trips- My growing self-confidence carried over to work,where I started to speak up and put forward my opinions.I began to ask questions during departmental discussions.
So,when an important conference relevant to our research came around,I felt comfortable registering to attend on my own even if my colleagues weren't interested in it.Not only did I meet the speakers,but I also introduced myself to other attendees and industry representatives,chatting about their products- The experience inspired me to evaluate my own professional interests.
Since then ,I have had confidence to move to other countries,enthusiastic about new opportunities.Traveling alone did not give me any magical power,but taught me that I have the competence to grow and succeed,just like everyone around me,and it helped me get rid of the self-doubt that used to hold me back.
