After Deepika Padukone, Zaira Wasim has come out to talk about her struggle with depression. The ‘Dangal’ fame actress took to her Twitter account to reveal that she was a victim of depression for four long years but never really had any courage to speak about it.
The 17-year-old actress wrote, “Popping 5 antidepressants every day, anxiety attacks, being rushed to the hospital in the middle of the night, feeling empty, restless, anxious, hallucinations, having sore limbs from sleeping too much to not being able to sleep for weeks, from overeating to starving myself, unexplained fatigue, body ache, self-loathing, nervous breakdowns, suicidal thoughts were all parts of this PHASE.”

“I just need a complete break from everything, my social life, my work, school and especially social media. I’m really looking forward to the holy month of Ramadhan as it may be the perfect opportunity to figure things out. Please remember me in your prayers,” she concluded.
Both of her movies have broken box office records and are among the highest-grossing Bollywood films worldwide.
