Such a day has come. I had so many responsibilities on my mind, I don’t know how it happened, suddenly there was a snap and it just happened. It was such a nervous breakdown and work overload. I came to the conclusion myself that I need to rest, I need to take some time off, I need to think about many things. That was the first time I went for help. I was absolutely not ashamed of it, he added.
