"It was bipolar disorder. There were psychotic symptoms as well. What happens then is that your mind goes out of control. You start seeing dreams while you’re awake. I would get scared even when my maid used to come thinking she’d be laughing at me, she was wiping blood off the floor, etc. It was a weird feeling. I thought I’d never be able to meet my parents again. I saw hell. I wished for death every day."
Talking about the dark phase of his life, Honey Singh shared that he didn't work for 2-2.5 years, and it was a terrible time of his life, as his elderly father had to work, and he would sleep till 12:30 in the afternoon.

"When I didn’t work for 2–2.5 years, it was a terrible time. A young man is sitting at home and sleeping till 12:30 in the afternoon. Meanwhile, Papa went to work and comes back. When he would look at me and our eyes would meet, I would feel a lot of shame that I am not earning and my father has to work at this age."
