Tokyo didn’t want her breakup to become a hot topic.
Tokyo Vanity was hoping she could get through her breakup privately. However, the “Love And Hip Hop Atlanta” star wasn’t able to do so due to her ex BC Jay’s social media activities.
This was hard for Tokyo because she likes to be as private as possible when it comes to her life away from the show. After she told fans that she had been single for months, BC Jay called her out. He accused her of announcing the breakup so she could get attention.
But attention was the last thing Tokyo wanted. BC Jay was her first love and the first person she’s ever slept with. So the breakup was a devastating one for her. As she opened up about the situation, she shed some tears. And she asked followers how to properly move on from the end of a serious relationship.
Luckily, she seemed to figure out how to navigate forward.
Tokyo is in a much better place.
Hours ago, she gave her Instagram followers an update on where she is now.
She posted a screenshot of her Facebook message. In the message, she wrote, “June” I had a nervous break down…And I’m not using that term loosely a real nervous break down. “July” I cut a lot of ties and focused on my own mental health, healing and well being. I stopped letting people bully me into being “ok.” I finally let everyone around me know that I wasn’t ok and I embraced that. “August” I’m happy, glowing, and growing! It’s amazing what 30 days of self care and self attention along with a lot of love from people who honestly care about you can do!”
Mental health is important.
Tokyo also said much more in the caption. She wrote, “Step back and focus on you. Mental health isn’t taken serious enough! It’s ok not to be ok! Everyone who knows me know I’m so private, even with my friends! I hate talking about my feelings. I hate talking about my problems. I’d rather be there for others and help them with their problems because I have such a healing spirit. When God took my granny he took a lot of me with Him!”
She added, “I never properly grieved behind my granny! I’ve loss so many others close to me in these last 2 yrs since my granny past. In 2 yrs I’ve lost 19 loved ones yeah 19 I never properly grieved about that! On top of that I have a mother who’s been ill my whole life who I would die to trade places with because she’s so amazing and don’t deserve to hurt and suffer how she has over these last 20 years…
Tokyo addressed the breakup, “on top of that I had to go through my 1st break up & 1st heart break, that I had been healing from in private that sh*t was like ripping 300 stitches out of a cut from a machete. I had to publicly be made fun of and humiliated by a bunch of women going through worse sh*t… and so much more that added on to my depression… I said all this to say, everyone who reached out and I didn’t respond to I apologize and just wanna say thank you, it didn’t go unnoticed! And to those ignoring your mental health just remember that sh*t can lead you to being dead, in jail, or a hospital!”
