The Big Brother Mzansi housemates have long moved on with their lives after the show ended. Many of them who left in the beginning have taken to the spotlight or have faded into the background.
Dinkybliss, a usually loud and dramatic girl of the house, had a vulnerable moment.
Dinkybliss was the second person to leave the Big Brother house in the second week of the house. She often got into trouble because of her careless tongue and into many altercations with fellow housemates. A misunderstanding with MphoWaBadimo revealed she was battling her own problems.
However, her latest action has people concerned. Dinky posted a worrying video expressing her inability to sleep and her concern about harming herself. It was a cry for help and with a caption about praying for her, fans quickly took to her comments to try and console her.
Social Media Response
The video was reposted to Twitter and it had people very concerned about Dinky’s wellbeing.
One user wrote, “I am so sorry @dinkybliss that you have to go through this pain. Suicide has never been an answer. It’ll cause a lot of distraction, especially to your child. Leave it all to God and meditate on His word everyday. God got you ♥️”
While another user wrote, “Our prayers are with you Dinky. Depression is very serious and sensitive condition. May God intervene in your life 🙏🏽”
Personal Thoughts
Depression and suicide are such a sensitive topic especially in a country like South Africa where opportunities are so low and awareness is even lower. I worry that Dinky feels this way and might not necessarily have the support system in place to help her. I hope the right people reach out to her to try and make things right before something terrible happens.
