“I knew I was ready, I mean the pain was Excruciating. Today was a perfect day to die I said, 🤦♀️ SMH God spared me, God showed me how much love he had for me that day.”

Dikeh added that suicide has and will never be the answer as she advised those going through tough times hold on.
“There is always light at the end of the tunnel, I can’t over emphasize how much Self love can save you. It’s impossible to stop the bullies but you can stop the ripple effect of their bully WITH TRUE LOVE FOR ONES SELF. Suicide has never been and will never be the answer, Don’t give any situation so much power over your life,” she wrote.
Life isn’t duplicated, mistakes can be corrected, Life can be better, that pain wouldn’t last forever. Love yourself so much you get IMMUNE TO BULLIES… Spread Love Your mind is a battle field, you must continuously guard it.”
“Take charge of your life, optimism is the key. Learn to care less about others opinion about you, because that speaks more of who they are than of who you are!!”
