Normally, we associate depression as a sign of losing things and not having what we want. But even successful people go through such things and Ileana is the recent one to open up about it. Earlier, Deepika Padukone, Karan Johar and many more celebrities have talked about various phases of life, where they had to go through severe depression and anxiety. Well, not all are perfect and when you are being watched all the time, not everyone is comfortable with the thought.
Ileana talked about depression and said, "Few years ago I battled with depression and that is because I have body dysmorphic disorder and I did not realize that as a disorder until recently. I got picked upon for my body type and I used to be highly conscious about that. I am a shy person and when I had to be constantly in crowds I got more and more self conscious ever since I hit my teens.
"I thought ending my life would be the soothing solution to this problem but that doesn't help anyone's case. I realised accepting ourselves is the key to achieving self contentment and I try to be happy with myself everyday. So, I am trying bit by bit to recover from the depression that ruled me once!" The actress is now busy doing a movie with Ajay Devgn and she is said to be in consideration for a movie with Mahesh Babu too.
