Vijay Varma Details Childhood Trauma, Depression, and Anxiety Battle

Vijay Varma Details Childhood Trauma, Depression, and Anxiety Battle

Actor Vijay Varma talked about feeling very sad and worried for a long time.

He explained that when he was a kid, his dad wanted him to be a certain way, like choosing a specific job, which made Vijay feel bad.

Because of this, he left home when he was younger and felt guilty.

Later, during a time when everyone was alone, his sadness got worse.

His friend Ira Khan helped him get active and start talking to a therapist.

The therapist said he had severe depression and anxiety.

Vijay learned that even if you think you've forgotten sad things from when you were little, your body remembers.

He also said that these old hurts can make it hard to love someone as an adult because love might feel scary.

Experts explain that these old feelings can come out as anger or sadness later, and healing means understanding these patterns, maybe with a therapist's help, and learning to trust again.
