Mungai Eve Opens Up on Depression, Burnout, and Renewed Faith

Content creator Mungai Eve has given her fans a rare and honest glimpse into her personal journey, opening up about her struggles with depression, burnout, and her evolving relationship with God.

Battling Depression

In a candid Instagram Q&A, Eve revealed that between April and June 2025, she endured what she described as the darkest period of her life. She admitted that depression left her emotionally drained, physically weak, and unable to carry out her normal routine.

“I spent most of my days in bed, barely eating, and constantly feeling overwhelmed by life,” she shared.

Eve credited her recovery to prayer, professional help, and the unwavering support of family and close friends. “It was the darkest period of my life, but I thank God and the people who stood by me. Healing is a journey, and I’m slowly getting better,” she said.

Stepping Back from the Spotlight

Eve also addressed her decision to pause her celebrity interviews and podcasts, which had been her signature content for the past five years.

She explained that the routine had become draining and left her burnt out.
“I realized I was chasing other people’s dreams instead of focusing on my own growth,” she confessed, noting that the break was necessary for her mental health and personal development.

A Stronger Walk with God

Beyond her career and mental health, Eve spoke openly about her spiritual journey. A follower asked about her faith, and she revealed that 2025 has been a turning point in her relationship with God.

“I’ve always been God-fearing, but this year I’ve become more intentional. I pray more, I trust Him more, and I consciously make time to walk with Him daily,” she said.

According to Eve, this deliberate effort has given her “the best peace ever” and helped her rebuild strength after her struggles.

Grateful for Healing

Reflecting on her experience, Eve emphasized the importance of seeking help, leaning on loved ones, and allowing healing to take time.

“Depression scars you, but it also teaches you who really stands with you. I’m grateful to be in a better place now, stronger and still healing,” she told her fans.
