Musician Tshego opens up on battle with depression

Tshego has come out and opened up about his battle with depression. He used to seek validation through his music, but was left feeling empty many times.

He returned to social media revealing he had stayed off because of depression.

“I refuse to come on here and laugh and tweet to keep my engagement up when I honestly don’t feel like that inside.”

Tshego previously touched on his depression in a shoutout to Riky Rick last year‚ telling the muso that he helped “save him”.

“A few years back I was stuck in some deep depression – not trying to get out of bed‚ not trying to work‚ in tears for no reason. On top of that I was so involved in hard drugs I’d be up four days straight. If it wasn’t for a text Riky Rick sent to tell me to stop slacking and decide if I want to be successful or not‚ I don’t know if I’d have started the journey to getting better‚” he wrote.
