Adesua Etomi has disclosed that there was once a time in her life, she’s wished to be someone else when everything seem suck.

The Nollywood actress took to her Instagram on Monday (June 11) to motivate fans with her story, which she feels someone really needs now and always. Adesua wrote: This message is linked to my faith and the God I serve but IT IS FOR EVERYONE|. I remember a time in my life when it seemed like NOTHING was going right and I mean NOTHING. Everything just seemed to suck. I was constantly being hurt by people I cared about and was good to, my career…well, I didn’t have one and it wasn’t for lack of trying, people I loved were going through tough times, everything wasn’t going right.

“It became hard to pray. I’d stay in my house, in bed for daysss. I never talked about it. On so many occasions, I’d cry myself to sleep. I constantly wished I was someone else. I was deeply unhappy.”

Adesua won the Best Actress in A Drama award at the 2016 Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards, for her role in 2015 romantic drama film “Falling”. The actress got married to singer Banky W in South Africa on November 25, 2017. Adesua continued: “I still go through tough times, everyone does but my perspective has changed. We don’t see complete pictures but I serve a God who does. I know it’s tough and I’m really sorry. If no one has told you before, i want you to know that you’re stronger than you can possibly imagine, even on the days that you can’t get yourself out of bed. You’re beautiful. You’re loved. You’re cherished.”

“You’re forgiven and the world needs you. You’re not a mistake. All these are true, whether you believe in God or not. I don’t know why I wrote this but I feel someone really needs it. Now and always, Sunshine.”
