She recently revealed how she finds ways to keep herself mentally healthy, saying, “I haven’t faced severe mental health issues yet, but I can relate to how tough it can be. One can only control what is in their hands, so I can only clarify and put my point of view out and move on, but it’s easy to ask them to do.”

She continued, “Patience and belief are the two main reasons; we don’t have patience, and we lack the belief that we will sail through the problems in our lives.” However, she is thankful that she has found her way to maintain a kind of mental peace. “I never had depression exactly, but we all go through highs and lows in our lives, and so have I. But I am fortunate to be part of an institution called ISKCON and it helps in relieving all my tensions and stress,” she stated.

Sharma concluded adding, “I would recommend anyone going through a bad mental phase to speak up and open up and don’t keep it inside you; also, when someone is in this zone they are only seeing things from a negative point of view. An expert can be handy and can induce hope and make them see the positive side and put that belief back in them; also, reading scripture helps, and awareness programs to deal with mental illness should be promoted.”
