(Web Desk) - In a field that is frequently shrouded in glitz and celebrity, a growing number of celebrities are realising the importance of having an important conversation about mental health.
Pakistani actor Bilal Abbas Khan has added his thoughts on stress and anxiety which are becoming more prevalent.
Bilal, who is well-known for his acting parts in TV dramas like Cheekh and Kuch Ankhahi, shared an Instagram Story with his followers in which he emphasised that mental health issues can arise at any time and for anyone, regardless of their level of religious affiliation.
"As it's an ongoing process and a part of life, prophets too and many underneath them endured anxiety, stress, grief, pain and suffering," the actor insisted.
As per Bilal, pivotal to escaping such turmoil is an active spiritual connection. “Surrendering to the Almighty with your heart and soul will allow miracles,” he insisted.
“It can take time and drain you, but it will happen. Just stay consistent and keep believing.”
Offering a crucial reminder that no one is alone in their pain, Bilal addressed his audience, “In case, anyone is dealing with this, we all do somehow. That’s the key.”
The star concluded his heartfelt note with a prayer, “May Almighty help those who are struggling with this.”
In a society grappling with the persistent stigma surrounding mental health, Bilal's message is poignant, shedding light on the universal impact of such challenges and emphasising that anyone can be affected.
"Make your health a priority," wrote Bilal in the caption, proceeding to list down a few tips for his fans. "Take your prayers seriously. Talk to the people you trust and be around only those who genuinely care," he suggested.
He also advised people to steer clear of "judgmental people" and surround themselves with similar-minded folks. "Stay very far away from judgmental people and close to like-minded people. This can be a miracle for you, in case you need it. Look after yourself," Bilal said, adding a heart emoji at the end.
