After Deepika Padukone, Karan Johar OPENS about his battle with DEPRESSION!

New Delhi: Recently , Karan Johar revealed that he’s been suffering from anxiety and depression and he realized that he went to the doctor for what he assumed as a heart attack.  In a recent interview with Barkha Dutt on NDTV, KJO revealed that he’s been suffering from anxiety and depression. According to the filmmaker, he was in a meeting, when he thought he was having a cardiac arrest and immediately went to the doctor. His doctor told that he was having an anxiety attack. And from right there, he also consulted a psychologist, who said he’s suffering from depression. He was immediately put on to medication which he stopped three months ago. This is what he said, “It was the darkest period of my life. I can’t explain the pain, anxiety, anguish. [I felt] helpless. Unhappy. Sad. Wanting to get onto a flight, always leaving the city… and walking the streets of other cities with nothing to say to anyone. Not even getting out of my bed from my hotel room sometimes. I wasn’t able to share this with anyone. I was making up meetings and reasons for me to leave the city. I found comfort in sleeping on a long-haul flight, waking up in a city where I didn’t have to meet people.” But the brave KJO has recovered and is slaying it with his latest introduction Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. So we can say, KJO is back!
