Vikram Reddy, a 42-year-old software engineer...
Vikram Reddy, a 42-year-old software engineer and father of two, had been married for 15 years. He came from a traditional background where emotional expression was limited. Over the past two years, he and his wife had become distant, communicating only about logistics. Vikram felt lonely and trapped, experiencing low mood, irritability, and frequent arguments that left him feeling like a failure. His primary care doctor, noting Vikram's stress-related insomnia, recommended he see a psychologist specializing in couples and individual therapy for men. Vikram was initially resistant, seeing it as a sign of weakness. In therapy, he learned to identify and articulate his feelings of inadequacy and fear of disconnection. He practiced communication skills and explored the impact of his upbringing on his emotional availability. Post-treatment, Vikram and his wife entered couples counseling together. He reports feeling more connected, less angry, and more hopeful about his marriage. His emotional journey moved from shame and isolation to self-awareness and cautious optimism, learning that vulnerability could be a strength.
