Ever since he was a five-month old, Haridas was frequently hospitalized. His mother struggled to ensure that he continued with his schooling, despite fallouts such as difficulties in grasping and recalling concepts such as math. "I took Arts group and secured second class in Class XII CBSE exams," he shares. When he was rejected from marketing and sales jobs, because epilepsy prevented him from driving, he took up a secretarial course.
Very often, however, he was humiliated by his employers and colleagues, he says. He was fired from jobs because his employers did not understand his difficulties and misunderstood his behavior. "Some of my superiors were kind and explained things to me whenever I failed to understand. But a few were downright abusive, forcing me to quit in despair," he adds.
"Sometimes, I have had panic attacks and uneasiness while crossing main roads choked with traffic. On some occasions, I have spoken without understanding the circumstance," he says.
