Nazish Jahangir Reveals Her Struggles with Depression and Suicidal Thoughts

Looking after your mental health is important.

Following the death of Sushant Singh Rajput, celebrities all around the world have brought forward the topic of mental health and battling your inner demons. Pakistani actress from Kahin Deep Jaley, Nazish Jahangir, has recently opened up about her struggles and battle with depression.

Taking to her Instagram account, the Tohmat actress said she has had suicidal thoughts twice in her life, but she found the strength within herself to keep going.

So here I am, I have been suicidal twice in my life after I lost my mother. I was hopeless I was unable to talk, everything was just meaningless for me. I have fought PTSD for 10 years as I mentioned this earlier but let me tell you all one thing very clearly, only I had a cure and that too within.

 

 

She further added that every breaking point was a lesson for her and she left the darkness behind her.

I stood up for myself, I took my every breakdown as a lesson, I fought my darkness and left it all behind me.

 

 

The actress urged everyone to step up and fight their battles the same way she did. Nazish Jahangir also advised everyone to not be judgmental of others and their mental health.

I pray for everyone to be strong enough to talk about it and fight it the same way. There are times in your life when you don’t feel right opening up to anyone, you don’t even want to listen to anyone and that’s the time where you have to talk your heart out and fight the depression living inside you, look for the positivity in your life, extract positivity from negativity, try to be kind with everyone,try to let people live their life the way they want to, try to not judge anyone.
It’s a request for wellbeing. Thankyou.
