Ira Khan said, "I do not do drugs, I do not harm myself, I do not drink too much, I do not have too much coffee, my depression does not work like that. I do not have immediate life-threats. That is not how my depression manifests." She added that she keeps piling things and when it gets overboard, she crashes. In her video, Ira revealed that once she crashes, she gets a sense of relief. Taking to her Instagram handle, Ira Khan shared a video in which she spoke about how her depression is affecting her mental health. "Me: So now what? Therapist: I don’t know. There are lots of parts to me. This is conflict between two of them that very seriously effects my attempts at healing from my overall depression. But the burn outs are getting longer so now I have to try harder. The plan is to reduce the frequency and intensity of my burn outs. I don’t need to change my entire being and functioning. Working a lot isn’t a bad thing, trying to do a lot isn’t a bad thing - not always. There’s a point after which it gets unhealthy. That’s what I need to find. That balance. Because working also brings me joy. #mentalhealth," she captioned the post. Have a dekko here: Also Read - Kareena Kapoor Khan’s shares a workout pic; says, ‘Lockdown doesn't mean giving up’
