September 26, 2025-Published by Cyril

Nigerian actor Michael Ejoor has revealed how he battled clinical depression and survived multiple suicide attempts over the past 14 years.

In a candid interview with Jay On Air, Ejoor recounted his mental health struggles, including a harrowing moment in the UK when he attempted to end his life by walking in front of a moving car.

He explained that his challenges began in childhood, when he felt isolated and unloved—even by his father, who he now considers his best friend.

  • “Growing up, I was secluded. I thought everybody hated me. I even thought my dad hated me. I didn’t think anybody liked me. I didn’t think anything was going well for me,” Ejoor said.

The actor shared how depression left him hopeless and unable to plan for the future.

  • “I didn’t want to think about tomorrow. The worst question you could ask me was my five-year goal. I didn’t even want to be alive tomorrow,” he added.

Ejoor’s revelation has sparked conversations about mental health awareness and the importance of early intervention and support for those battling depression.
