Anupama reveals she had panic attacks, blackouts

In a conversation with Dhanya Varma, Anupama went on to share that there was never a period of normalcy in the relationship; it was either extreme highs or extreme lows. “When you are going through extreme anxiety, it affects you physically. Panic attacks, anxiety attacks, yes, blackouts, I was losing a lot of weight… I had none of this; I was a happy and normal child. My right eye even started twitching, and we had to stop shooting… it was such a condition. Some conversation would happen, and I would throw up, and I would not eat anything. I lost so much weight. I was crying every single night for hours and hours, and I would have to get up and go for a shoot. If you see promotions of Paaradha, one side of my eye was like a very big swollen. My lacrimal gland itself fell off from there, and we had to stitch it back.”
