A few years passed into the marriage. With all the difficulties that Annakkutty was facing, she started to feel more and more sad. That was the time when Mr.D. identified that Annakkutty has depression and needs treatment. What was his aim then? Don't know. Mr.D.'s parents intervened and kept telling Annakkutty that she needs to meet the doctor (for what and which disease?).
Later, it was agreed to go for a marriage counseling at NIMHANS Bangalore. Infornt of counselor, Mr.D. kept arguing. Annakkutty kept crying. Back at home, he would use what the counselor talked again to blame and torture Annakkutty. Many new stories were cooked up infornt of the counselor. Annakkutty didn't know how to defend. But she felt as if cheated and is again being tortured by taking the name of counseling.
During one of the counseling sessions, Mr.D. announced to the counselor that Annakkutty has depression. The counselor replied by saying that the person who gets victimised in marital issues often gets into depression. Anyhow, it was suggested that she meet the psychiatrist over there, Dr.Santhosh, for the consultation. Doctor confirmed the disease and prescribed sleeping tablets and Zozert at the initial stages.
The sleeping pills, suggested for a period of two weeks, put Annakkutty into deep sleep, in the night. She had deep sleeps, which she has never had in the near past (probably since the marriage was fixed). Zozert gave mood upliftment. Though Mr.D.'s behavior never changed (even after warnings from the psychiatrist and the marriage counselor), Annakkutty felt a bit relieved with the anti-depressants.
