A married mother-of-three has revealed why she left the UK with her family to relocate back to Nigeria.
She shared a photo of herself looking stressed in the UK a few days before returning to Nigeria and revealed that her mental health was a mess and she did not have a support system in the UK. Hence, she decided to come back home.
She wrote on Facebook: “This was what I looked like a few days before I left the UK. Sad, anxious, constantly exhausted, unable to find anything that brought me joy. I was burnt out, my kids were unhappy, and every day felt heavier than the last. I was living on autopilot, going through the motions, but truly struggling inside.
“I had reached out to the NHS crisis team for help, and as you can imagine, I was placed on a waiting list. Meanwhile, I had neighbors who constantly reported me, adding even more stress and anxiety to an already overwhelming situation. I struggled deeply, emotionally, mentally, and physically.
“Most people don’t understand why I made the decision to leave the UK for Nigeria. I left not because I failed or gave up, but because I needed to breathe. It was during this dark period that I realized moving to Canada was no longer the right choice. I chose to return home, somewhere familiar, where I could finally get the support I desperately needed.
“I left behind comfort, familiarity, and what many would call security, but I refused to let my life and my children’s lives be defined by unhappiness. I returned to reclaim peace, to wake up with a smile again, and to give my kids a home filled with laughter and freedom. Sometimes, coming back is not a step backward; it’s a brave step toward healing and genuine happiness.”
In follow-up posts, she added that she now has peace after moving back to Nigeria with her family and she is no longer living in debt.
