Since I was a little girl, I struggled deeply with my mental health. As I grew older, I searched for healing in all the wrong places. I turned to drugs and alcohol, unhealthy relationships, even romantic love from the same gender. I chased false idols, witchcraft, and anything that promised comfort, but every path only led me deeper into darkness.

​

I ran away from everything. I isolated myself from my family and eventually ended up in a mentally and physically abusive marriage. My life spiraled until I felt completely empty and alone, convinced that the only way out was to end my life.
