We aware well that Hrithik Roshan has been through a lot in
life. But, Hrithik lately disclosed that he indeed was suffering from depression.
Hrithik told-, "I've been through my ups and downs. I have experienced
depression, I have experienced confusion, as we all do. It's a very normal
thing. We should be very casual about it when we speak about it. It should be
spoken about casually."
He further added, "We all go through ups and
downs. The ups are important, the downs are important because you evolve
through both of them. When you go through a down then the most important
thing is clarity of thought. Sometimes your brain takes over, feeds you with unwanted
thoughts. That's the time you need objectivity, a third or second person
to look at you and say 'this is what is happening to you'."
He further included, "This is something which was
on my mind for years. I always questioned this stigma (around mental illness).
I have seen my friends suffer in silence and it bothered me to a level where I
started asking questions and stumbled upon some very good questions in that
search. Why, when we are suffering from stomach or kidney problem, we are so
cool and casual about it. Why when we have a problem with a brain, which is
also an organ, we get scared and feel as if it is our fault and we need to hide
it from people. Everybody at some point of life is going to go through some
mental issue."
Other Bollywood stars who have claimed to suffer from
depression are Deepika Padukone and Karan Johar.
