"But most importantly I never slide back to depression...Well I choose my mental health and I have kept it...Sadly I feel at the edge... I feel am losing it..I always hold it together life taught me that.. But since 4 am.. I couldn't breathe well..I have been getting crazy panic and anxiety attacks the last two weeks..,"

Due to the difficulties she has faced after quitting her job at Royal Media Services, she has asked for help to get a production house for her content creation.

"I need help to be honest I just don't know where to start with asking for it...Ave always being strong... I am the one who helps people....Asking for help is hard AF..Anyway I need a job..Am bloody good at content creation..I have content..A production house would be a blessing..Anyway its been hard on all of us..Check on your people some of us are drowning in smiles and laugher 🤗🤗" she wrote.

The mother of two is a survivor of sexual and domestic violence that forced her to live on the streets while young.
