Veteran Nollywood actress Bukky Wright has shared her struggles with depression and how she overcame them, crediting her children for helping her through the difficult journey.

She expressed her deep love for them, acknowledging that their love for her is equally strong. She recalled how they urged her to focus on herself and find happiness outside of her responsibilities as a mother.
"There was a time when I was depressed, and I had to take antidepressants. But my children helped me wean off them. They have always been my number one critics. I would say they are my pillar of life because they know I would do anything for them. But one day, they told me, ‘Iya, you’ve always lived for us, now it’s time to live for yourself. Enjoy life and have fun.’"
