Alia Bhatt on dealing with anxiety and advice for her younger self
Opening up about her approach to dealing with anxiety, Alia stated, “We all have certain things that might trigger our anxiety - for example I find myself getting very worked up with any sudden change or a situation I have no control over.. but it took me a long while to understand that.. so prior to any of these moments I just try and be aware of it and if it’s too much I allow myself to check out and feel the way I feel.
