Bollywood megastar Aamir Khan’s daughter Ira Khan has been quite
open about her battle with depression. The star child turned to her social
media with another video, wearing her heart on her sleeve about her mental
illness and how those around her reacted and advised her on dealing with it the
ordeal. ‘What can you say to someone who’s depressed as way of advice when you
don’t really know how their depression is effecting them?’ she wrote in the
caption. In the video, Ira said that she realized she should not have been
running away from her battle by keeping herself busy, something she came to
understand after visiting four doctors. She went on to say how she also
consulted her parents and aunt as her step-mom “Kiran aunty”. ‘I used to work
out a lot, but now I’m scared of working out, which is frustrating, because I
loved working out a lot;’ she said. Back in October, Ira had made public her
battle with depression as she said in an Instagram post: “Hi; I’m depressed. I
have been for more than four years now. I’ve been to a doctor and I’m
clinically depressed. I’m doing much better now.’ “For over a year now; I
wanted to do something for mental health, but I wasn’t sure what to do. So, I
have decided to take you on a journey; my journey; and see what happens.
Hopefully; we will get to know ourselves slightly better; understand mental
illness better.’
