Deepika Padukone, bankable Bollywood A-lister, is fast becoming the de-facto face of mental health awareness. The actress has never shied away from sharing how she was diagnosed with depression, her remedial course of action, and how she basically dealt with it. She is one of the very few actors in the industry who went public with her battle with depression and has spoken about it on various occasions. On Thursday, Deepika once again shed light on how she battled months-long depression and overcame many bumps that came her way, including suicidal thoughts. Speaking at an event in Mumbai, Deepika shared anecdotes from the time she was dealing with depression and how her mother came to her rescue. Deepika said, “I give all the credit to my mother for recognizing the signs and symptoms…because it just happened out of the blue…” “I was on a career-high, and everything was going well, so there was no reason or no apparent reason why I should’ve felt the way I was feeling, but I would break down for no reason. There were days when I just didn’t want to wake up, I would sleep because sleep for me was an escape, I was suicidal at times,” she added.Image Credit: insta/ deepikapadukone

Explaining further about how loved ones came to her rescue during her tough times, she said: “My parents live in Bengaluru and every time they visited me, even now when they visit me, I always put on a brave front, like everything’s okay, you know you always want to show your parents that you’re fine…so I was doing one of those things like I’m fine…until they were leaving one day, they were going back to Bengaluru and I broke down and my mother asked me the usual hygiene questions like…is it a boyfriend? Is it someone at work? Has something happened? And I just didn’t have answers…it was none of these things. And it just came from a really empty, hollow place. And she knew instantly, and I think that for me was God sent.”Image Credit: insta/deepikapadukone

Indian actress and singer Shruti Haasan said mental health awareness shouldn’t be restricted to a day on the calendar. Kamal Haasan’s daughter, who reportedly struggles with anxiety, added that just doing this for one day is a disservice to people who go through the daily strife of having a mental health issue. “It can’t be a trump card that you use once a year. You have to keep talking about mental health. Recovery of any kind is about constantly addressing it and being aware of it. I don’t agree with people who do it for a season or on Mental Health Awareness Day alone,” said Haasan in an exclusive interview with Gulf News over Zoom in 2021. Haasan joined Sarika Thakur to lead by example, and has constantly reminded fans that dealing with anxiety takes relentless work.“I want to remind people that I am still a work in progress. There’s no quick fix out there. It’s a constant and that’s why nobody calls someone an ex-addict but calls them a ‘recovering addict’. I am constantly findings tools and ways to deal with it [anxiety],” said Haasan.Image Credit: insta/ shrutzhaasan

It may be tough to think of someone who looks so in control of themselves as distressed. But it is possible. ‘Chakda Xpress’ actor Anushka Sharma explained her battle with anxiety a few years ago, tweeting: “I have anxiety. And I’m treating my anxiety. I’m on medication for my anxiety. Why am I saying this? Because it’s a completely normal thing. It’s a biological problem. In my family, there have been cases of depression. More and more people should talk openly about it. There is nothing shameful about it or something to hide. If you had a constant stomach pain, wouldn’t you go to the doctor? It’s that simple. I want to make this my mission, to take any shame out of this, to educate people about this”.Image Credit: Insta/ anushkasharma
