Deepika Padukone Reveals Feeling ‘Suicidal’ Struggles With Depression And Role Of Husband Ranveer Singh In Difficult Phase

Bollywood Actress Deepika Padukone, a leading actress and a prominent mental health advocate, made a significant impact when she shared her own experience with depression and established an organization to assist individuals facing similar challenges. During the premiere episode of Koffee With Karan Season 8, Deepika reflected on her initial struggle with depression and how her husband, Ranveer Singh, created a safe space for her to open up.
Deepika disclosed when she first recognized her depression. “It happened to me in 2014 when I first realized it.” The actress said that in the beginning, it takes several months for people to realise what they are going through. That’s why I came out in 2014 and shared my experience by just breaking it down and saying, ‘This is how I was feeling for a prolonged period of time.’ It’s been almost 10 years since I’ve been on medication, and it works every day,” shared Deepika.
