Comedian Brendah Jons has been making headlines since she come out of the closet last year.
In a recent post, the entertainer has said that social media pressure has taken a toll on her and her mental health is currently at risk.
She said she has been experiencing so much that she is unable to handle it all finding herself doing things she never thought she would ever have done.
"Lately, a lot has been happening and I've been very emotional about a lot of things. My mental health has been challenged, I've found myself doing things I never thought I'd do.
I've found myself drinking too much, overeating, not eating at all, crying too much, all extremes on feelings and emotions," she said.
She added that she had even been tried taking her life just to stop the noise from her world,
"I've been suicidal and felt like I just want to stop the noise from the world in my life. I look happy, I look okay but deep down I'm breaking and going nuts. I just want genuine freedom and rest. Why I'm I sharing this?"
Not for pity or consolation, no. I know it will remind someone that it's okay not to be okay and it's okay to take a break from the world and focus on yourself...so I'm taking a healthy break from everything, I just need to stay quiet and listen to myself and heal.
I don't know how but I know that I have genuine people in my life and I am sure things will work out for me. Thank you to everyone who's held me down. I appreciate you."
