Actress and filmmaker Adanma Luke has shared an account of her battle with depression and su!cidal thoughts following the tragic death of her colleague, Junior Pope Odonwodu, who drowned on her movie set in April
In an emotional Instagram post, Luke revealed that during her darkest moments, she sought solace from her senior colleague, Uche Nancy.
She wrote: “With so much tears in my eyes after so much pressure and expenses in April i reached out to this beautiful soul @uchenancy and she said Ada, don’t worry i dey for you. Just let me know if there’s more to do and i won’t abandon you. She spoke as if she was me and gave me instances of why i should stay alive and strong.
“It lifted my soul even tho i was contemplating suicide at that time and lost interest in whatever was happening and just needed to exit this world because It was indeed a very dark period for me that I had to stop breastfeeding in less than 3 months due so much sadness in my heart, depression,calls and hash words from families of the deceased and online fans.
“To be sincere I was online because my phone was the closest thing to me at that point. My mom took away my child so i don’t feed or breastfeed my child with sadness. I only come online to cry away my pains from the hurtful words being thrown at me and feel a little better from some good friends and fans who choose to love me regardless.
“Whatever i did or posted then was what my mindset was all about. Please help me say a kind prayer for this beautiful soul @uchenancy because she didn’t just help me with the huge finically support but also made sure I’m doing ok till now. I can’t end my 2024 without appreciating you my beautiful hardworking woman @uchenancy may God continue to bless you richly.”
