Navigating Life’s Challenges: Mainak Chakraborty’s Journey to Wellness with YourDOST.

Mainak Chakraborty, a 25-year-old from West Bengal, embarked on a professional journey in the Sales and Marketing department at BYJU after completing his graduation and a diploma in digital marketing.

West Bengal, located in eastern India, is a land of rich cultural heritage and artistic grandeur. Known for its significant contributions to Indian literature, music, and cinema, the state is the birthplace of Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore. 

Its capital, Kolkata, once the British colonial capital, is a vibrant city that artfully blends historical elegance with modern vitality. The state’s festivals, particularly Durga Puja, are celebrated with fervour, showcasing elaborate artistry and communal harmony. 

Renowned for its delectable cuisine, including sweets like rasgulla and sandesh, West Bengal embodies a diverse tapestry of traditions, arts, and intellectual prowess, symbolizing the soul of Indian culture.

A freelancer in digital services, Mainak’s life is a blend of ambition and passion, with interests ranging from playing cricket to watching horror movies. Raised in a family of four, with a mother working as a contractual teacher, Mainak’s childhood was filled with memories of academic excellence and participation in poetry recitals at district and state levels.

“As much as I was successful in my academic life, adulting brought its own set of challenges.”

Working in the fast-paced environment of ed-tech, he soon found the work culture impacting his personal life. The balance between his professional responsibilities and personal relationships became a tightrope walk, leading him to a state of constant exhaustion and disconnect from his loved ones.

It was during this tumultuous period that Mainak learned about YourDOST, BYJU’s emotional wellness partner. Feeling overwhelmed with work stress and relationship issues, he decided to seek counseling. 

“I was in desperate need of a guiding light, and that’s when I turned to therapy.” 

Meeting his counselor, Ms. Pinky, was a turning point for Mainak. 

“I felt an instant connection, given our similar age. Every session with her brought immense relief and clarity.” 


Ms. Pinky’s empathetic and solution-oriented approach provided Mainak with a safe space to navigate his thoughts and emotions. Ms. Pinky introduced Mainak to various psychological techniques, including listening to light music and practicing silence. 

“These techniques were more than just exercises; they became my coping mechanisms in times of stress.”

The hectic nature of his job at BYJU’s began to take a toll on Mainak’s personal life. This realization was crucial in his decision to seek help and strive for a healthier work-life balance.

“I was always exhausted, struggling to find time for my friends and family.”

Through consistent counseling sessions, Mainak began to witness a positive change in his life.

 “I started to manage my time better, ensuring I was present for both my work and my loved ones. The feeling of exhaustion gradually faded.”

Reflecting on his journey, Mainak expresses heartfelt gratitude to Ms. Pinky. 

“Her guidance was instrumental in helping me through tough times. I am sincerely thankful for her support and for always being by my side.”

Mainak Chakraborty’s story is a testament to the transformative power of counseling and emotional wellness support. His experience with YourDOST highlights the importance of seeking help when feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges.

“YourDOST was not just a counseling service for me; it was a journey of self-discovery and learning to balance my personal and professional life. I am now more equipped to handle the pressures of work and maintain healthy relationships.” 

His journey inspires many who find themselves struggling to balance the demands of a hectic professional life with personal well-being. Mainak’s story with YourDOST serves as a reminder that it’s okay to seek help and that doing so can lead to a more fulfilling and balanced life.

Mainak’s Warrior Tips:
1.“When you get bogged down with problems always remember to reach out for help instead of being ignorant towards your feelings.”
2.“It begins by starting to look after yourself and then the environment around you will start appearing normal.”
