Ghanaian Highlife musician Kwabena Kwabena has revealed he experienced periods of severe depression during his life.
Sharing his musical journey, he expressed how such occurrences made him feel like giving up.
Speaking in an interview with Doreen Avio on Daybreak Hitz, the artiste mentioned how the intensity of the depression made him indulge in certain actions he regrets.
“I’ll share this to inspire every individual out there who’s going through any form of depression or any situation that has actually gotten you to a point where you feel like giving up. Yes, I must confess, there was a period in my life when I went through a serious moment of depression.”
“Very serious, I mean, those who are close to me know. I went through it to the extent that certain posts that I made Today, I look at and I ask myself, oh my God, did I make such a post?”, he said on Hitz FM.
He also stated that the phase allowed him to understand the whole concept of life.
“People also read all kinds of meanings into how depression has distorted my figure a little bit. It distorted my looks because I have videos and photos of those days and I look at photos of recent times. It gives me a clear understanding of what I’ve been through and it gives me a clear understanding of what depression does”, he said.
However, he admonished individuals to be prayerful, while highlighting that it was the key used by his mother to help him out of his depression.
“I will encourage everybody out there that the key to getting out of that situation is only one thing and it’s prayer. On that note, I would like to say a big thank you to the woman that carried me, my mother. My mother has been a great pillar behind me in terms of prayer.”
“She will call me every morning and ask me if I’ve prayed. So, there’s a song on my EP called “Enso Nyame Y3”. That song actually is a whole story about everything that I’ve seen in life and how you can always render everything onto God and in His time, He will make things beautiful,” he added.
