Actor Divyanka Tripathi has been a part of the entertainment industry for more than twenty years. She recently revealed that she faced challenges with depression during the early phase of her career, describing her debut show as the "most traumatic experience of her life."

What did she say

In a recent interview with Hindi Rush, Divyanka reflected on her experiences within the entertainment industry. The Yeh Hai Mohabbatein actress remarked, "My first show was the most traumatic experience of my life. At that time, I was unaware of the concept of depression."

She noted that contemporary society is more informed about mental health issues, largely due to the influence of social media.

Divyanka further stated, "They say ignorance is bliss. Perhaps because I was unaware that I was experiencing depression, I did not take it seriously, which allowed me to overcome it. However, there was a period when my friends and I would converse in a room, and as soon as one or two names were mentioned, I would begin to cry."

She emphasized the importance of expressing one's feelings and suggested that having a supportive therapist or friend who can listen attentively is essential.
