VIDEO: WATCH VIDEO OF A CHICKEN LICKEN EMPLOYEE UNALIVING HERSELF ON A FACEBOOK LIVE
MAMELODI GIRL GOES LIVE ON FACEBOOK WHILE UNALIVING HERSELF
A heartbreaking incident recently shook social media when a young woman from Mamelodi went live on Facebook in visible emotional distress. The young mother, who reportedly works at Chicken Licken, appeared overwhelmed and deeply broken as hundreds of viewers watched the five-minute live video unfold.
In the video, she was seen crying and speaking very little, clearly carrying a weight that words could not fully explain. Many who joined the live immediately sensed that something was terribly wrong. Comments flooded the screen as viewers begged her not to harm herself. Friends, acquaintances, and even strangers pleaded with her to hold on.
Although there were no visible physical injuries during the broadcast, the emotional pain she displayed was evident. It was the kind of pain that reaches beyond what the eyes can see — the kind that makes people wish they could step through a screen just to offer comfort, a hug, or reassurance that things can get better.
As the video circulated, social media users began tagging people who knew her personally, hoping someone nearby could reach her in time. Many reminded her that she has a child who needs her. Others urged anyone with her address to call for emergency assistance. The sense of urgency was overwhelming, with communities coming together in real time in an attempt to save a life.
At the time of writing, it remains unclear how the situation ended. What is clear, however, is how deeply this incident affected so many people. It has once again highlighted the silent battles many individuals fight behind closed doors — battles that are not always visible on smiling photos or daily posts.
Depression is real. Emotional pain is real. And sometimes, the people who seem strongest are the ones hurting the most.
This tragic moment serves as a reminder to check in on those around us. A simple message, a call, or a visit can make more of a difference than we realize. Let us also remember that seeking help is not a sign of weakness. Speaking to a trusted friend, family member, counselor, or mental health professional can be the first step toward healing.
If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of self-harm, it’s important to reach out for immediate help from a trusted adult, healthcare provider, or local emergency services. You are not alone, even when it feels that way.
Our hope is that she survived and that she receives the support, care, and compassion she deserves. May whatever darkness she was facing be met with light, understanding, and real help.
Let this be more than just another viral story. Let it be a wake-up call to take mental health seriously, to show kindness freely, and to remind one another — every single day — that our lives matter.
