Shama Sikander Recalls Battling Depression And How Hubby, James Milliron, Denied To Leave Her

Shama Sikander had always been vocal about her struggle with mental health issues. However, it's not easy to identify people who are suffering from depression. Even the people with smiling faces might also be undergoing a battle with anxiety inside. The gorgeous actress had tied the knot with her longtime beau, James Milliron, in an intimate wedding in Goa on March 14, 2022. Now the lovely couple is enjoying every phase of their marital bliss. 

In the year 2016, the actress had first opened up about her bipolar disease and had admitted taking several sleeping pills at once and attempting to commit suicide. In an interview with The Times Of India in 2020, she had referred to her illness as a ‘pandemic’. She had described how painful it is for a human being to wake up without any hope or desire and stay confined to oneself as our conditioning by society has taught us to believe that depression is a sign of weakness. Shama could be quoted saying:

“Depression or bipolar are mental situations where you tend to lose hope and desires and that is the darkest space any human being can ever be in. That is like waking up with a pandemic almost every moment and minute of your life. You don't know what's going to happen, you are so uncertain. You don't even have desires at that time. The saddest part is that you don't have any hope.”

In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Shama Sikander opened up about the roughest phase of her life when she had to battle depression and anxiety. When asked how her then-boyfriend now-husband, James Milliron helped her during her challenging phase, Shama revealed that James is the only one who did not leave her. She stated:

“I will tell you the first incident when I just met him, and of course I was still going through my bouts of depression. I would get depressed every now and then. And the first time I actually had that feeling in front of him, when I would go through those feelings, I just didn't want anybody around me. I wanted people around me, but I would just push everybody. I would just push them to go away from me and nobody ever dared to really go against that decision. Everybody would leave but he was the only one who did not leave. I told him to get out, just go away and leave me, but he just stood.”

Going further in the interview Shama said:

“He went to the door, and then he just looked back at me, and I was like a numb vegetable, just sitting in one corner. And he looks at me, and he goes, ‘Im sorry, but I can't leave. I'll sit here, I'll just be with you. I don't know how to fix this, but I'll just be here. And then all night, I literally did not speak to him. I just lied down on my bed, and he just helped me and that's how I spent my whole night. And when I woke up in the morning, I was in a better mood. And That changed a lot of things.”
