Media personality, Betty Irabor has recounted some of the challenges she faced during her 8 year battle with depression.
In tweets she shared, Betty Irabor recalled being hounded till she was ashamed to go out because many thought she was on a death diet. She also disclosed that she was called “anorexic and snobbish” because she lost the ability to socialize thereafter.
Betty further revealed that she’s been out of that hole for 5 years and has shared her experience in a book.
She tweeted;
When I was battling depression & lost weight, many thought I was on a death diet & hounded me till I was ashamed to go out. A News Daily called me Anorexic. I got labelled “Snobbish” cos I lost every ability to socialize….Hmm Things are never what they seem. Let’s be guided.
My battle with depression lasted 8 years. I have been out of that dark hole for some 5 years now & I wrote a book on my experience. I am fantastic thanks to my family especially hubby, God & my therapists. There’s a lot of self effort required on the journey to recovery.
