Boarding school syndrome, a recognized psychiatric condition, entails emotional and behavioral challenges stemming from the boarding school experience. This project explores its impact through the "Boarding School Syndrome-Survival Guide," a photo book depicting life in boarding schools. Supported by research and personal stories, it advocates for interventions like trauma therapy and systemic changes to promote healing and support for survivors.
