    EP. 23 ROCD In South Asian Dating: Breaking Down Cultural Expectations And Mental Health

    EP. 23 ROCD In South Asian Dating: Breaking Down Cultural Expectations And Mental Health

    Welcome to this week’s episode of South Asian Love Experiment, in today’s episode your host Radha Patel is going to touch base on a very important topic.

    As we move into May which is Mental Health Awareness Month and celebrate Asian Pacific Islander Desi American Heritage Month, it's crucial to explore topics that relate to and resonate deeply within our community. Today, I want to shine a light on Relationship Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (ROCD), a phenomenon that many of you may relate to but not quite understand.

    ROCD isn't a formally recognized mental health disorder on its own. Instead, it's considered a manifestation of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Picture this: you're in a relationship, and suddenly, intrusive thoughts flood your mind. You question whether your partner truly loves you, whether you've made the right choice, or even find yourself fixating on minor flaws.

    These doubts, insecurities, and criticisms can grip individuals living with ROCD, replaying in their minds relentlessly. While ROCD isn't a clinical diagnosis, giving it a name can help individuals struggling with it to better understand their experiences.

    In essence, ROCD involves intrusive thoughts specific to one's romantic relationship, often accompanied by compulsive behaviors aimed at seeking reassurance or validation from partners or external sources.

    Together let’s make a change and provide the necessary support, education and consideration to help our people struggling with ROCD, to live a happier and healthier life.

    EP. 22 Breaking Down Tradwife Culture: From Kitchen to Content Creation

    EP. 22 Breaking Down Tradwife Culture: From Kitchen to Content Creation

    In this week’s episode of “South Asian Love Experiment” we explore tradwife culture.
    The term "tradwife" is a clever fusion of "traditional wife," and it's gaining traction in the aftermath of the feminist movement's progress in the workplace. Imagine this: as women continue to dominate university enrollments and climb the corporate ladder, there's a growing sentiment among some to trade in their power suits for aprons and retreat to the kitchen. It's a thought that's crossed my mind more than once, especially during those hectic days of juggling work and family responsibilities. But let's face it, that yearning for a simpler life isn't about lacking ambition; it's about the lack of support for women and mothers in our society. Tune in and start embracing the streaming mindset today!

    EP. 19 Navigating the Intersection of Social Media, Celebrity Culture, and South Asian Relationships

    EP. 19 Navigating the Intersection of Social Media, Celebrity Culture, and South Asian Relationships

    Welcome to the latest episode of Love Marriage! In today's digital era, social media has revolutionized how we build relationships, especially in the dating sphere. Platforms like Instagram and Twitter have paved the way for unique connections with celebrities and influencers, leading to what psychologists term as parasocial relationships.

    These digital bonds also shape our interactions with potential partners, blurring the boundaries between virtual and real-life connections. A prevalent concept in this landscape is "stanning," which signifies an intense admiration for a public figure.

    However, their split ignited conversations about societal hurdles and how digital connections influence our views on love and relationships. At Single to Shaadi, we believe in celebrating love in all its diversity, irrespective of backgrounds or identities. As we navigate this digital terrain, let's continue supporting those challenging societal norms, fostering a more inclusive and empathetic community. Tune in to delve deeper into these important discussions!
