Apparently, Deepika Padukone, the most coveted actress today, also suffered from depression and anxiety at one point of time!
She says her problem started when one day she felt “a strange emptiness” in her “stomach”. Further deteriorating, she reached a point where she couldn’t focus, had shallow breathing, and often broke down. She confessed these feelings to her mother and consulted a psychologist. She says, “Every morning, it was a struggle to wake up and shoot for the Happy New Year climax. Finally, I had a word with Anna aunty (psychologist). She flew to Mumbai from Bengaluru and I talked my heart out to her. She concluded that I was suffering from anxiety and depression.” Though she didn’t initially take medication, she had to give in and get help. She says accepting and speaking about it liberated her.
