Bollywood’s happy-go-lucky girl Jacqueline Fernandez has all of our hearts. The always cheerful and happy actress recently spoke about a phase when she felt really lonely during the first lockdown. She said she sought help from a therapist, which really helped her.
Speaking with Shilpa Shetty on her show ‘Shape Of You’, Jackie said, “In 2020, right after the pandemic, I realised I was possibly going through loneliness. There are so many people who actually live alone in the city and they don’t have their families with them. So, you don’t have people to talk to. And there’s a lot of times, it is in my personality as well, I don’t want to keep bogging people down with my problem or my issues. So, I don’t want to bring up things that might seem sad or depressing around friends or even family, because I don’t like them knowing that I am struggling or sad or lonely.”
She added, “So, I did seek help. I had this amazing therapist. I was doing therapy for some time. And it is amazing.” Jackie added that it is amazing for people to have somebody solid to talk to. “People think therapy is useless because what are they going to tell you. But actually, it is for your own self-reflection, which sometimes you don’t take the time to do. It helped me so much.”
On the work front, Jacqueline has the release of Akshay Kumar’s ‘Bachchhan Paandey’ and John Abraham’s ‘Attack’ in the works.
