They said he was suffering from schizophrenia. Depression & Schizophrenia go hand in hand. Sushant himself has claimed he only sleeps 2 hrs a day in an interview with Anupama Chopra.
Sushants untimely & sad demise could've been used to educate the highly ignorant Indian society on mental illness but even that has been made into a circus by vultures furthuring their agenda, mainly against nepotism.
The man was distressed, he needed help. 34 year old men without any mental illness dont take their lives because they're broke or they cant fit in among a clique-y group.
@bold One major characteristic of schizophrenia is psychosis - a state whereby you have trouble differentiating what's real from what isn't real; there's some sort of cleavage. Which is why people who suffer from schizophrenia have hallucinations, hear voices that aren't actually there etc. They did basically call him psychotic.
And no, depression and schizophrenia are two very different things (even though you can have both at the same time). Schizophrenia is a psychiatric condition, it can be controlled through regular medication intake. Depression can be treated through therapy as well. Those people are diagnosing him with something else completely for their convenience
