Deepika Padukone has always been candid about her mental health issues. She decided to come out about the challenging moment in her life and used her status to raise awareness of it, and as a result, she gained a lot of love and appreciation from people all around the world. A few days ago, actress Somy Ali commended the Piku actress for championing the cause and being open about despair. Deepika replied by reposting the article on her social media profile.
In her article, actress and self-described human rights activist Somy Ali complimented Deepika Padukone for her advocacy for mental health issues and efforts to increase awareness of them. The actress from Om Shanti Om previously reposted Ali's article and wrote “#mentalhealthmatters” along with a folded-hands emoji.
On her Instagram, Somy Ali shared a photo of the Piku
actress with the caption and wrote, “Today, I would like to bow my head down
and simultaneously salute this beautiful young lady. She has talent, intellect
and above all, courage. As someone who knows what depression feels like and has
inherited it from my mother. I THANK YOU! It’s never easy to be vulnerable and
particularly a star of this caliber. You are a real hero! "There were days
when I just didn't want to wake up, I would sleep because sleep for me was an
escape," said Deepika Padukone An estimated 3.8% of the population
experience depression, including 5% of adults (4% among men and 6% among
women), and 5.7% of adults older than 60 years. Approximately 280 million
people in the world have depression (1). Depression is about 50% more common
among women than among men.”
