"I am fighting to be genuinely okay, from my hair follicles to the lines under my feet. I was so scared for my life and thought I was crossing over, I knew I had to fight for my life, but I didn't even know where I was in this world, this is the scariest thing any person can go through."

He shared that he is grateful that it happened to him as his life is changing for the better, and he can feel the growth flowing through him.

The late TV host V Mash's son is on meds and thankful to each person by his side when he was weakest:

"I'm posting about this not for pity or sympathy but to raise awareness of how important it is to take care of your mental health, reality is that we only become mindful and conscious of things when we only experience them, but if I can be an example to you, then take it with you and protect yourself, it's a serious thing please," he shared.
