In a recent episode of the podcast 'Be A Man, Yaar!', Varun Dhawan (Indian actor) reminisced about his childhood, stating that it was more magical than his adulthood. He revealed an unusual habit of crying in front of a mirror to observe his emotions, which he described as a 'filmy' behavior. Dhawan expressed that he would stop crying to evaluate his appearance, realizing that it didn't look good. According to Dr. Abhinit Kumar, a Senior Consultant in Psychiatry, this behavior signifies a crucial developmental milestone, showcasing early self-awareness. The act of pausing to reflect on one's emotions is foundational for emotional regulation, not just for children but also for adults. Observing oneself can create distance from subjective experiences, making them easier to handle, which is a sign of psychological health. Dhawan's candid reflection has sparked interest, highlighting the importance of emotional awareness.
