She said: ‘It was the worst as a teenager. It was so bad that I was suicidal, really.
And no one understood that I did not understand what the problem was. But even though she had family around her, my mother, she loved her so much that she had no idea how she felt.
‘But I used to pray that I wouldn’t wake up. I used to pray that my life would end and I convinced myself that no one would notice and that was in 2014.
