In the post, Kudzai claimed that he battled depression after being isolated from his friends and family by his controlling partner.

He said he could not live his privileged life fully because he was scared he would disrespect his partner and cause problems in their relationship. He said:

"For 1.7 years I had a fixed daily routine. Work 18 hours a day, sleep and repeat, and maybe go to the barber. I had very minimal contact and communication with the outside world and my mental health started falling apart.
"Each time I tried to step out, it disrupted the peace in my relationship, so I chose to stay home, and only went out when she was home with me and that was maybe after 4 months for a few weeks. I started losing my ability to communicate well with others socially.
