Neha Cadabam, Senior Psychologist and Executive Director at Cadabam's Hospitals, was featured in NDTV Health to address one of mental health's most overlooked realities — high-functioning depression.
In the feature, she explains how individuals can continue showing up to work, managing responsibilities, and appearing completely fine on the outside, while silently experiencing persistent emotional emptiness and disconnection within.
She highlights why this form of depression is so frequently dismissed as stress or tiredness, and why functioning and wellbeing are never the same thing. Because appearing fine was never a reason to not seek support.
At Cadabam's Hospitals, our team offers integrated mental health care for individuals navigating depression, emotional exhaustion, and persistent low mood — including those who seem outwardly fine while quietly struggling. If this feels familiar, our team is here to help.
