She said, “To be frank if the disorder that I have been battling with didn’t sufficiently disgrace me to the point that it has, chances are I won’t be here championing it.
My psychiatrist was my biggest nightmare, I wish I could k** him because it was him for the first time after years of manic episodes, after years of violence, it was from his mouth I heard the name of what was wrong with me and I was pained.
I left an ugly experience in Enugu in the Hotel where I smashed everything, wrecked the whole hotel, and reduced everything that my family had only what we were wearing. I went untreated.
Two years we came to Asaba and I had another manic. This time I wrecked the whole house. It was a habit, at some point we didn’t have house properties because it was only a matter of months before I wreck it.
He took me to FDAH and after some days, he came and gave me the verdict, the diagnosis. I didn’t like taking drugs so I flushed them down the toilet when they discharged me. I had another relapse and they put me back in the hospital”.

Hmmmmm, she talks too much. Internet never forgets
DeleteWhat is wrong with you people? Internet never forgets what? That someone is bringing light to bipolar disorder? What is wrong with you?!!!
DeleteI suppose the Internet forgets when the agenda was her husband being abusive.
As for the yawning one up there, keep yawning out your ignorance on the Internet.
My opinion, I said what I said.

19:45, so disgusting how arrogantly ignorant you are!!! The internet should not forget this! Go and google A list Hollywood celebrities who openly share their mental health diseases!
DeleteChacha please keep it up oh, very soon one correct International NGO will make you their ambassador and your ignorant naysayers will come back to congratulate you. Even your colleagues in the industry wey like copy copy go join claim mental health disorder sef.
Ignorant people and their allergy to knowledge. Little ABC, they will start dozing off.
DeleteGood you are strong now
ReplyDeleteWishing you total healing Chacha
ReplyDeleteIt's well with u chacha
ReplyDeleteUr healing is permanent.
Keeps taking ur drugs u will conquer
Oh chi m oo!🤯
ReplyDeleteI wish there is a way to hide posts on SDK, you see this one and Yul, instant hiding, achom ihe na atakasi m anya
ReplyDeleteNot a nice comment. Mental illness isn't a joke and should be taken seriously. Please show some empathy.
DeleteTo show empathy, you have to have it first.
DeleteIt is well,ekpele Cha Cha
ReplyDeleteMental illness is real,may God heal you
ReplyDeleteIt's real.. The earlier people start talking about it the better. Thank God she didn't harm anyone or even herself. It seems hers was really extreme.
ReplyDeleteBut some bvs here are saying she's talking too much.
DeleteShe sells her properties too
ReplyDeleteIt is well wwith you but you are talking too much. Everybody don't need to know all this detail.
ReplyDeleteKeep hiding your own mental illness if you want, just leave others to share their struggle!
Delete18:48, that was a fantastic response😆
DeleteI wish you total healing, Cha Cha.
ReplyDeleteI am glad she is actually using her platform to talk about mental illness. There are a lot of people battling with this in Nigeria who are too ashamed to even face the fact that they're ill and seek medical help.
ReplyDeletePlease continue speaking up, I wish you healing.
Exactly
DeleteKING XOXO MYSTERY
Mental illness is real, I pray more awareness should reach some remote areas in Nigeria where they believe everything is spiritual.
ReplyDeleteI understand your plight Chacha, my sister once suffered the illness and I know what it caused my family, properties were destroyed and thrown away, my international passport, my oldies cassette, my late father photo hanged on the wall, clothes and so many other things were parts of the things we lost during the phase, everyone in the family felt it, it took prayers and going for treatment and counseling at psychiatric hospital for her to regain her health, so I salute you for talking about your experience.
May her healing be permanent. Thank you for sharing and God bless you and your family for supporting her through this phase.
DeleteMay God healed her permanently.
ReplyDeleteAmen 🙏
DeleteLicious babe
I wonder why some of you are saying she's talking too much. These things need to be said as most of us do not know mental illness is real. There's no talking too much about this particular topic. It needs to be heard as much as possible
ReplyDeleteIt's just annoying, really
DeleteI am diagnosed with ADHD --- not ADHD the way every Nigerian who can't remember where they left their phone think they have ADHD. I know the rage I feel, how easily I snap, how easily I get frustrated, how as a professional I have to read something over and over and over again before I send it, how easily I get distracted, how I can go weeks without any motivation or passion for anything, how I can become obsessed with the most pedestrian thing, how I ask one question over and over and over again, how I can get stuck in a loop in my head.... I could go on.
Let people who are neurodivergent tell their stories without you neurotypicals asking them to shut up.
Especially in Nigeria that everything is termed spiritual.
Delete🤗🤗🤗🤗@anon:18:57
DeletePeople goes through a lot in their closets. May you receive permanent healing.
ReplyDeleteThank God for your healing.
ReplyDeleteThank you Chacha for bringing this to the limelight and educating the public.
ReplyDeleteSo many Nigerians are going through different forms of mental illness but they term it jazz.
Most times, mental illness is genetic and sometimes trauma or stress can trigger it.
Mental illness that Nigerian parents hide their kids as a result, chacha is talking about it freely, kudos to her. I wish others can stop hiding and go for treatment.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of chikito
Chikito how is that your brother now? Hope he is fine now?
It takes a whole lot of courage to speak up on mental illness. People need more awareness on it. Welldone Chacha for speaking up.
DeleteEezi
It is well with you Chacha.
ReplyDeleteThank God she's financially stable, she would have been on the road walking naked by n.
ReplyDeleteAre you now OK?
ReplyDeleteIts good she is talking about it. We need more awareness on this.
ReplyDeleteThey are "yawning" and writing "internet never forgets" because their agenda of the husband being the "evil person" didn't agend, someone that is suffering from a serious mental disorder is airing out her issues so that people can learn from it and maybe be more understanding to some people that might be close to them and also suffering from the disorder but blockheads don't want to learn.
