Few months back, actress Shilpa Shetty sustained an injury while working on the set of her web show 'Indian Police Force' and ever since then, she is trying to gradually recover from the same. Ahead of World Mental Health Day, Shilpa took to Instagram to share a video of herself doing exercises and undergoing physiotherapy sessions and talked about how this injury took a toll on her mental health as well.

The actress wrote, "Its been two months today since my injury. Let me tell you honestly, its NOT been easy. The mental agony has been as severe as the physical pain. For someone whos a workaholic and a fitness addict like me, these past eight weeks have had its own share of frustration, anger, sadness, and helplessness. But, I found a very strong source of motivation to get better as quickly from daughter Having Samisha around me for every physiotherapy session. It was only as time passed that I realised how she was waiting EAGERLY for me to be able to pick her up again. Those smiles, hugs, little sweet nothings, and kisses were all I needed on some days."

Shilpa continued, "We all cope with our stressors and pain-points differently. If you can't cope with somethings on your own, seek help. If you know of someone who is struggling for whatever reason, extend help and support. There couldn't be a more apt day than Mental Health day to discuss this. Broken hearts & spirits aren't any less painful than broken bones. Everyone deserves to heal from them all Heartfelt gratitude to my doctors @dr_kalpesh_ghelani @nityanand_chauhan for handholding (literally) and helping me through this process and doing it with so much love. To all my well wishers for all your prayers and good wishes."
