Virat Kohli

In an interview with a popular sports channel, Virat Kohli was candid about his feelings, his struggles with mental illness, and his coping strategies. After being open about his recent struggles, which had a deleterious impact on his mental health, the former Indian captain was completely sidelined from the game for a month. He stated, “Recently, I realised that I was feigning my intensity a little bit. I was trying to persuade myself that you had the intensity. Nevertheless, your body is urging you to quit. Your mind is telling me to stop and back up.”

Alia Bhatt

Alia Bhatt is no stranger when it comes to having days when she feels off-kilter mentally. Alia  opened up about her struggle with living with anxiety issues in a 2019 interview with Filmfare. “Initially, I’d be a little confused. I’d constantly give reasons that it’s because of work or maybe I’m tired or haven’t been able to meet anyone,” revealed the star. “What’s important is to accept it and not say that you’re fine. If you’re not feeling fine, then you should just say you’re not feeling fine,” she continued.

Naomi Osaka

Tennis star Naomi Osaka she shared her struggles with depression and anxiety with her fans. “The truth is that I have suffered long bouts of depression since the US Open in 2018 and I have had a really hard time coping with that,” she wrote on Instagram at the time. “I think now the best thing for the tournament, the other players and my well-being is that I withdraw so that everyone can get back to focusing on the tennis going on in Paris,” Osaka wrote. “I never wanted to be a distraction and I accept that my timing was not ideal and my message could have been clearer. More importantly I would never trivialize mental health or use the term lightly.”
