We’ve all seen how the  COVID 19 pandemic has affected us in so many ways. I mean we’ve been ordered to stay in since March. After more than 4 months of being in the house there’s only a number things you can creatively do inside.

Most of us result to social media for entertainment but how entertaining has that been with everything else that has been going on? Seeing the many fatalities that were caused by or in relation to the pandemic, the horrific events that led to the sometimes not so peaceful black lives matter protests, watching the bad reports on the news, people loosing their jobs, financial issues along with your personal matters can be mentally draining.

It was reported that Tamar Braxton has attempted to commit suicide. According to TMZ Braxton was found in her Ritz Carlton hotel room unconscious and her boyfriend David Adefeso told officials she May have overdosed on pills and alcohol. While the details on what led to the suicidal attempt are still unclear we know that Braxton had threatened suicide earlier that day.
