Popular social media influencer, Ama Burland, has disclosed how she nearly committed suicide after ‘fake’ nude images of her went viral online.
In an interview on Headless YouTuber’s channel, Ama Burland said she felt she had disappointed her mother, who had invested heavily in her education.
“I wanted to take my life that day when it was trending. I felt like I had disappointed her. Like, why does this have to happen to me? I didn’t want to face my mother. She had brought me to school, and this is what I had brought home,” she shared.
She explained that her decision was rushed and driven not only by the fear of her mother’s reaction but also by the fear of public scrutiny.
“I don’t think it was just about her, maybe it was also about how society would view me. That’s why I almost ended it all,” she stated.
Reflecting on the traumatic event, she now regrets not confiding in her mother earlier, stating, “I should have given my mother the benefit of the doubt that she would have listened to me.”
