TONTO DIKE EMERGES FOR THE FIRST TIME AFTER TWEETS ABOUT DEPRESSION

This is what she wore to her Cool FM interview today. The troubled actress shared the moments of depression she went through a while back with her fans on Twitter after a fan sent a mail to her about wanting to kill himself. See her tweets after the cut...

 Hey peeps, I want to take a minute to talk about depression…

1 out of 3 people will face severe depression at one time or the other in life…

For some people, life gets too unbearable and they are ready to trade it all for death, because they see death as an end to all the stress

For others, they re-think and find something in life that can take away the emotional pain; they try to stay positive despite it all…

I got a private message from a fan talking about killing himself, I wanted to help him so I decided to share my own issues too...

We are all vulnerable in many ways. People do not keep to their business/love promises and it can drive us nuts…

But I believe that with all its broken dreams it is still a beautiful world. We can find happiness if we keep pushing on…

Nobody will hand a bag-of-happiness over to you. Not many people care about you, but if you care about yourself it will be alright!

Look in the mirror and say to yourself, “I am beautiful, I deserve to be alive!”
— TONTO W.C DIKEH (@TONTOLET) August 12, 2013

I have my own battles and I have found myself on the edge. But when I get there, I remember all that has worked for me and I stay happy!
— TONTO W.C DIKEH (@TONTOLET) August 12, 2013

I can’t even begin to count my blessings, so I know nothing should make me give it all up- NOTHING! Life is precious!
— TONTO W.C DIKEH (@TONTOLET) August 12, 2013

So whenever you feel the need to give up, look in the mirror and tell yourself, “you can fight this and win!”
— TONTO W.C DIKEH (@TONTOLET) August 12, 2013

The greatest battle in life is loving yourself. If you can love yourself, you have won half the battles in life...
— TONTO W.C DIKEH (@TONTOLET) August 12, 2013

Although we need love from others, we need to love ourselves first.

So whoever you are trying to end your life. Stop for one second and take a deep breath. There is hope only for the living!
— TONTO W.C DIKEH (@TONTOLET) August 12, 2013

Never give up on yourself. And don’t push yourself too hard.
— TONTO W.C DIKEH (@TONTOLET) August 12, 2013

I am well and alive. And I have conquered depression. I have won the battle and so can you!
— TONTO W.C DIKEH (@TONTOLET) August 12, 2013

Celebrate who you are, and enjoy your own successes no matter how small they seem. Yay!!!
