"Mess." That was the only term Krithika Shalin could use to explain her life—though even that was an understatement. Between the relentless family drama and the emotional tirades that accompanied it, her house felt less like home and more like a live set of a daytime soap opera. Krithika is weary at 21. Mentally.
