Hitmaker finds new ways to heal after NPA dropped case against Sjava
According to the City Press, the Collide singer said the decision taken by the NPA to withdraw the claims has made things very difficult for her. She has managed to confront her mental health issues after being diagnosed with compound PTSD and depression in 2020.
She also said that her break from music has somewhat helped her deal with the trauma of the abuse. She added that she'd seen psychiatrists and psychologists who made her understand that the ordeal was not her fault:
"I’ve forgiven myself for being ignorant, for not realising that a lot of people are bad people. I’ve forgiven myself for not being confident in myself. I saw that I could stand up to everybody and the monsters around me.”

"Taking care of your mental health should stay your number one priority even in this season of festivities, laughter, dancing, music, food and fun… have a happy and safe December everyone ❤️."

@Lady_Zamar baby girl just stay strong and take care of yourself. You are older and wiser now, so just take care of your mental health. The past is the past, look to the future, no one is perfect, not even life judges."
