Nigeria: Chacha Eke, an actress, breaks down the symptoms of mental illness.

Following the murder of IVD’s wife, Bimbo, who was thought to be mentally ill, actress Cha Cha Eke has provided a breakdown of indicators of mental illness.

The actress, who has been a vocal advocate for mental health issues since her own breakdown, has shared her thoughts on her death.

While highlighting the characteristics of mental health patients, Chacha revealed that if Bimbo had sought medical help, she would not have set fire to her residence.

Chacha stated that the deceased suffered from mental illness, since her acts were the result of her mental instability.

The mother of four believes that if you have anger issues, are bitter and saddened to the point of inflicting harm on others, and are disconnected from reality, you are suffering from mental illness.

In her word:

“If you have anger issues, I am talking temper, the one that wouldn’t go away until you take out your vexation on something or someone else, you have a mental illness.

If you feel bitter and saddened to the extent that you inflict injury on yourself, you have got a mental illness.

If you are out of touch with reality, you have paranoia, hallucinations, and delusions and the mood swings never end, that’s a mental illness.

If you recognize one, two, or more of the traits that I mentioned in yourself and for fear of being stigmatized. You refuse to align with the truth.

You will be doing yourself a great disservice. Mental illness can be inherited or acquired. Intense trauma, poverty, and living a hectic lifestyle can give one mental illness. If you fall under this category please seek medical attention”
