Sana Khan Talks About Postpartum Depression:

In the teaser for the vlog, Sana has asked mothers not to dwell on postpartum depression, claiming that constantly thinking about it could worsen the issue. She shared her personal experience, saying, "I hope mothers don't have to deal with postpartum depression. But if someone is battling it, don't think too much about it. Let it go because, in the end, it affects your mental health." She further spoke about the challenges of adapting to a new lifestyle after childbirth. "It's difficult. There are lifestyle changes, and suddenly there's a new person next to you who wakes up crying. Your sleep cycle changes. I experienced this as well," she said.

Here's What Sana Said:

Sana also recounted moments of fatigue and isolation. "I remember feeling so tired that I would dose off while feeding the baby. This is very normal. A person can feel lonely even if surrounded by 100 people at home. I've been through it. But when you keep telling yourself that you're depressed, somewhere you'll start to believe it. Try to overcome it; focus on improving your spirituality," she added.

Her comments about mental health didn't go well with the netizens and they have slammed her approach. On Reddit, a user wrote, "In a country where people don't take mental health seriously, her statements make me so angry. What angers me more is that these idiots have such a huge platform." Another commented, "She's a time traveler. She literally traveled 50 years back."

Earlier, Sana made headlines for her comments on Rubina Dilaik's podcast. During the interaction, she stated that she does not understand how men 'allow their wives to dress a certain way' and how are they okay with other men calling them hot.
