Why I’m here
I’m , a solo founder in Bengaluru. I’ve lived with alopecia, an autoimmune condition, since I was a child. It slowly took away my confidence, and I couldn’t continue in a regular corporate job.
I didn’t want to give up, so I started building HappiHeal, an app that helps people going through hair loss feel less alone. It’s still early and it isn’t earning enough yet, but I believe in it.
Years of home and family expenses, and debt with interest piling up year after year, left me carrying more than I can manage. I paid what I could for a long time, then I started missing EMIs, and the interest kept growing every single day.
The gold loans started with my parents. To make sure the family’s gold wasn’t lost, I renewed those loans in my own name and kept paying the interest every month. Then I missed three months, and one of them has now moved to auction.
I also borrowed from friends and family when no bank would help. They trusted me without paperwork, and repaying them is a debt of honour as much as money.
I’m not hiding any of this. I’d rather show every bill openly and ask for help than lose the gold or let this keep growing. Any amount helps, and I’ll post proof as each bill is cleared. Everything you send goes to the bills on this page.
