According to their statements, Sushant Singh Rajput did not visit the same doctor more than two or three times and would stop taking the medicines as soon as he felt better in two or three months. He had been diagnosed with manic disorder and had stopped taking his medicines on time. According to the doctors, these medicines require a period of nine to eleven months to work properly and need to be consumed for a lifetime in some cases. In the last two or three months before his demise, Sushant had stopped taking the medicines completely and was not following the instructions given by the doctors.

As per the doctors, Sushant did not believe in the treatment being used on him by the doctors resulting in him changing the doctors frequently.
