Following Adnan Malik and Mawra Hocane, Armeena Khan is the latest celeb to open up about her battle with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and poor mental health.

In an Instagram post, the actor shared that this decade she conquered her eating disorders caused by her stressful media job. She revealed that she lost a lot of weight and ended up weighing 39 kgs only because of which she was “severely malnourished”.

Armeena explained that she was “sharing this story not as a victim but as a victor.”

I’d been deliberating whether to post this or not for a while. It’s high-time I shared a SMALL snippet of my journey with you. So this decade, I conquered eating disorders (exacerbated by my media job), anxiety (nearly) and low self-esteem (thats right, I had it). Here I was a size 00 weighed 39 Kgs and severely malnourished. I was very sick. I’m sharing this story NOT as a victim but as a VICTOR, I conquered these and so I class them as some of my BIGGEST achievements these last few years. I am happy in my skin now, I meditate and I eat healthy and I have a general feeling of well-being. The purpose is to tell you all that you are beautiful no matter what shape or size you are, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. The most important thing in this world is your health. To all those suffering from these horrible ailments, I’m sending you BIG hugs, positive energy and I pray that you may prevail. Ameen ?? #bodyimage #positivity #mindovermatter
