Neha Bhasin on battling PMDD,
OCPD: Knew something was off
HINDUSTAN TIMES (August 5, 2024)

Singer Neha Bhasin took to social media to reveal that she is suffering from Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) and Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD). She also wrote that she has been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia.

Her Insta post read: “I want to say a lot but I really don’t know where to even begin or how to consolidate the helpless hell I am experiencing. After years of knowing something is off. Finally with more awareness medically today comes the Diagnosis (on paper since 2 years, I have known since I was 20) which helps get the right treatment for the mental and hormonal illnesses and with all of this comes major realisation and then THE acceptance that at least for now my nervous system feels broken (sic).”

The singer, 41, added that she has been experiencing fatigue, body pain, mental pain, anxiety, depression, etc. She also wrote how she has been finding comfort in yoga, journalling and other possible healing methods, but her health battles often catch up to her.

“My monthly PMDD still finds a way to throw me in an old dark hole or dig many new ones. Is this my failure? Asks my OCPD.. Flares up what my DR calls Fibromylgia which now I am finally ACCEPTING too.. I have worked out, danced, performed through pain for years thinking I’m just tight so stretch more (sic).”

Bhasin ended the note by saying that she is “in a lot of pain”.
