The tragic incident happened 15 days after the pair had broken up. As per reports, Tunisha has had a history of depression and anxiety. She was on medication for the same around 2018.
Tunisha felt emotionally broken after losing her father, her cousin and her grandmother at a young age, and that’s when she was diagnosed with the disorders.
“That’s when I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression. I remember when I just started medication, I had turned into a zombie. I hated going to work. Then later, social media also began to affect me; I replaced an actor in a show and started getting comments full of hatred. All of this took a toll on me,” Tunisha had commented.
