Popular Nigerian content creator, Jarvis (Elizabeth Amadu) has revealed her bitter experience.

Speaking during a recent interview, Jarvis recounted her experience.

She said: “I grew up with my grandparents. My mother lived with bipolar disorder, which made my childhood stressful and, at times, traumatic.”

“Growing up with her was very stressful and depressing because sometimes the disorder could be extreme.”

“Today, she would be nice and good; the next minute, she could become violent, destroy things and insult us. She would say things like, ‘Oh, you stupid child. What are you doing here? Your father is mad.’”

“I didn’t grow up with my dad because I don’t know who my dad is. So, I don’t know anything about my father. But she would keep saying, ‘Oh, your dad is this, your dad is that.”

“Growing up without a dad was not easy, especially because my mum was not mentally stable.”

“I grew up with my grandma and grandpa, and they did their best to raise me well. They were very educated and strict. That strictness was what tamed me, and I appreciate them because it really helped shape my life.”

“We were always hungry.”
