In an emotional video shared on YouTube channel, Dr Elizabeth Udayan opened up about the reason behind her recent suicide attempt. She admitted that it was the result of overwhelming emotional distress that she could no longer handle.

"I was discharged from hospital and will be returning home in a few days," she said. "At one point, I simply couldn’t bear my sorrows. But I know that’s not an excuse. Saying sorry doesn’t resolve anything, but I still want to apologise to everyone who might have been hurt by my actions."

Expressing deep gratitude, Dr Elizabeth extended heartfelt thanks to those who prayed and supported her during the difficult time. She added that ‘’no matter what challenges lie ahead, she is determined to fight through them and also learn to celebrate even the smallest moments of happiness," she said.

Dr Elizabeth also spoke candidly about her current mental health struggles. "I'm going through a rough patch right now. I was instructed to stop my antidepressant medication which has caused some withdrawal symptoms. Normally, such medication should be tapered off slowly, but because of this stupid thing I did, I was asked to discontinue it abruptly," she explained.
