Salaam Auntie,

I am a 20-year-old university student and the youngest in my family. I have always been focused on my studies and tried to stay positive. However, since my siblings’ marriages, our family life has become very stressful, due to constant conflicts and serious marital issues.

The ongoing arguments, negativity and emotional tension at home have taken a toll on me. Along with academic pressure, I now struggle with irritation, loneliness and lack of peace. My parents are deeply involved in my siblings’ problems and are unable to provide emotional support.

Seeing my friends speak proudly about their siblings makes me feel even more demoralised. I try to stay strong, but it has become difficult to concentrate on my studies........
