The movie diva recently spoke with The Sun about her horrible experiences with men and how she overcome them.
According to her, she was sexually abused as a child, and when she confronted her abuser as a grown woman, she was stigmatised.
She said the experience made her hate men for a while, but she has now healed and moved on.

“Sexually abused as a kid? Yes. Mental health victim? Yes. In the society we live in, people don’t talk about mental health issues; they expect you to visit your pastor and you will be alright. As an actor, it is not easy. First, you will have to embody the life of different characters and personalities, the good, the bad and the terrible.
Despite what you are going through personally, you have to wear a smile and keep entertaining people because that is what people expect from you. I think there should be a special therapist for entertainers, because it is not easy. Giving out joy to people and lacking where to fill up from. Most people are broken; they’re carrying about baggage from the past, if you don’t talk about it so you can get help, you will keep carrying it about until it destroys you. By sharing your problems with your partner, you can get help.
Last but not least, trauma is a mental condition that requires therapy; it is not a spiritual problem. One day, I’ll wed the man of my dreams. Prior to healing and moving on, the sexual assault had a tendency to make me dislike males. Now, I feel a lot better. She spoke. Sandra Okunzuwa shares
