Aamir Khan and his daughter Ira Khan have opened up about their experiences with therapy in a new video on World Mental Health Day. The father-daughter duo encouraged people to seek therapy if they are struggling with their mental or emotional health.
In the video, Aamir explains how seeking therapy is as normal as seeking help from a doctor, teacher, or carpenter in their respective areas of expertise. Ira adds that she and her father have been reaping the benefits of therapy for years.
"If you also feel like you're going through mental or emotional issues, you can seek a trained professional's help. There's no shame in that," Aamir concludes.
Ira captioned the video on Instagram with the hashtag #imhuman, writing, "The only criteria to seek therapy is to be human." She also urged her followers to "break the stigma" if they have sought therapy, and reposted posts from other users who shared their positive experiences with therapy.
Aamir and Ira's video has been praised by fans and celebrities alike for its honesty and bravery in speaking about mental health. It is a reminder that everyone is human, and that there is no shame in seeking help when needed.
