Mental health is a serious issue but in our society, it’s still a taboo topic. Many among us are suffering silently from depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.
Many celebrities have been suffering from it. Some are suffering silently but some of them came forward and shared with the people. Mawra Hocane came forward to talk about her anxiety and how she has managed to cope with it in the past year.
Mawra took to Instagram and shared, “We all have our days of weakness & breakdowns, I am lucky my job allows me to express my grief on screen. It’s been over a year since I’ve been diagnosed with anxiety & I’m no longer embarrassed by it. It’s a part of me like the sky is blue but I’m definitely better equipped to deal with it as I’m growing with it & beginning to understand it.”
Mawra went for therapy in Sydney which helped her a lot. “I went to a therapist in Sydney at the end of 2018 who told me that even though certain deficiencies contribute to my anxiety, it gets worse because I’m fearful of it. I decided that day to no longer be afraid of it or hide it from anybody at all.”
The Daasi actress also thanked her co-star Adeel Hussain for supporting her throughout her journey.
More power to Mawra Hocane for her courage. Keep shining!
