Steroids se face full moon ho gaya, bahu ne balloon kaha - kya karoon?

Beta ji, main aaj bahut dukhi hoon. Autoimmune hepatitis ke liye steroids le rahi hoon, doctor ne kaha hai ki immune system ko control karna zaroori hai. Par is dawa ka side effect moonface hai – mera chehra poora gol ho gaya hai, jaise purnima ka chand. Kal meri bahu ne mirror ke saamne aate hue kaha, "Maa, aap toh bilkul balloon jaise lagti ho." Itna seedha comment tha, lekin dil par chot lagi. Pata hai woh mazak mein boli hogi, par mujhe bahut bura laga. Main toh pehle se hi apni appearance ko leke conscious hoon.

Steroids se mood swings bhi ho rahe hain, kabhi hasi aati hai kabhi rona. Gharwale kehte hain "tum toh hamesha gussa rehti ho," par woh nahi samajhte ki yeh dawa ka asar hai. Main sochti hoon, kya koi aur bhi is situation se guzar raha hai? Kya aap logon ne bhi family members se aise comments se deal kiya hai? Bahu se maine kuch nahi kaha, par dil dukha hai. Kya karna chahiye? Chup rehna ya politely samjhana?
