Talking to Pinkvilla, Divya Agarwal opened up about dealing with mental health issues and revealed what all she experienced during that period. From facing breathlessness and blackouts, Divya revealed how scary it was for her. In her words:
"I faced it after Papa passed away. I used to get these anxiety attacks which I had no idea about. I always felt that I was very strong, and nothing like this really happens. But you know, that feeling of breathlessness was experienced back then, a feeling of blackout. When I just used to stand up, I used to feel blackout and had vertigo issues after that. So it was very scary for me, but it didn't go on for a long time. It was for a short while, but it was there."
Divya further revealed that she overcame her mental health issues and has good control over her emotions. Talking about the same, Divya shared:
"I don’t stress myself too much. If I am working for two days, then on the third day I eat properly, talk to everyone, and don’t care about my weight or anything else. I live properly without any tensions. So it’s important to create that balance when you are struggling through depression or something like that. So I am quite open to talking about it, and have experienced it."
