BBNaija 'Shine Ya Eye' alum Queen Mercy Atang has recounted how she almost gave up because she was running mental during the airing of the show.
Queen's recent disclosure comes following the conclusion of the BBNaija Reunion event where old wounds were reopened and past issues brought to the fore once again.
Speaking via her Instagram page, Queen shared a video of herself and narrated how she cried while on lockdown before her entry into the BBNaija house.
She said she came close to giving up on the show but fought back her anxiety and fears, choosing to participate in the popular reality show.

"What a journey it has been for me, I’m filled with so many emotions. I’m happy and thankful to @bigbronaija @dstvnigeria for the opportunity given to me to be on the show.
"First as you all know, I came into biggie’s house 2 weeks late. I stayed in the lockdown house longer than others did. One full month in there, God’s grace kept me there…
"...I can recall my stay in the lock-down house. All I did was cry, pray, work out, look out the window, and wish I could step out.. unfortunately I couldn’t.
"That was when I realized what freedom really meant. I was literally running mental. I was losing my mind. My anxiety was dealing with me. I wanted to give up.
"I wanted to go back home to my mom. But then one thing kept ringing in my head. Who will believe my story. That I was close to getting into biggie’s house but I opted out. Literally No one lol.
"Secondly Queen do you really want to give up after coming this close, do you want to do this next year? The answer was No.
"So I fought my anxiety, I fought my fears, I fought the noises in my head that kept telling me to quit and I made it to the house", she penned.
