Erica Nlewedim, a former Big Brother Naija lockdown housemate, has narrated how she healed from the disqualification trauma one year after the unfortunate incident.
Recall that Erica’s journey in the Big Brother season five edition last year was cut short after she was disqualified after receiving her last and final strike.
However, Erica in a post on her Instagram account on Monday gave details of how her journey has been ever since she was disqualified from the show.
According to her, she forgave, applauded herself and promised to do better.
“In the past one year, I’ve been working, almost like a robot. Not thinking of how far I’ve come, I was just focused on my goals, trying to outdo myself and make everyone around me proud.
“My life has been on fast forward and it was a lot. It took its toll on me and I had to take a break to heal.
“I couldn’t understand how I had successfully avoided thinking about any of the traumatic experiences that had happened to me in the past one year.
“It was a struggle to think back to those moments of fear and sadness but I did. I spoke to Erica, forgave her, applauded her and promised her she would be proud of herself in a few months.
“I’m healed and I’ve come so far! I want to thank God, my loved ones, my Elites, Management and fellow housemates. Words can’t describe how much I appreciate you all. Thank you,” she wrote.
