"I was caught by paps on road, in cafes, on my way to the gym. When I loathed at the very sight of how I looked. I was only body shamed constantly brutally shamed. She goes to gym it's not working they said. I was simply depressed and in constant body pain I'd sit in gym and cry if I'd not move I'd have less dopamine abd serotonin. If I moved more I'd have cramps and fatigue," she added.

The singer shared that she has been battling with it since a year and thought that she would not make it. "In 2024 I got worst I was isolating, lost my will and joy in music, life and even friends. I changed therapists, I did yoga pranayam, I stopped working but the demon Pmdd was everywhere I went."

Expressing gratitude, Bhasin shared that she is feeling better with the help she now receives. While she still has her bad days, she is learning to 'cope and hope.'
