Breaking News: Liberian On Air Personality Shares Heartbreaking Childhood Trauma

Monrovia — In a recent social media post, Rickslyn Myers, a popular Liberian On Air Personality, opened up about the traumatic experiences she faced during her childhood. She described the last three months of her life as the most difficult period of her adult life, filled with regretful decisions.

Myers also expressed her deep-seated pain and hurt caused by her aunt, Juah Myers. Despite her gratitude towards her aunt for providing her with education and care after her mother’s death, Myers revealed that her aunt’s treatment of her and the other children in their care was traumatic and abusive.

“You taught us civilization and how to be decent human beings but you didn’t give us any love. No love at all! Today, I still long for true motherly love because I never got any from you who said you were going to be my mother after my mother passed! You accused us of being witches and so many other things I can’t write down right now, but your daughter?

There was never a day when you even thought she could hurt a fly. Which means you understood what was right and what actually love is but you just decided that the children who lived with you didn’t deserve any,” Myers wrote in her emotional post.

She went on to describe how her aunt’s actions had affected her and other children in their care, leaving them traumatized and emotionally scarred.

“You taught me I was a second-class human being and it stayed with me. Which is why I live the way I do today (humbly). I’ll never feel too big or important for anybody because before I could even establish a personality of my own, you told me without words that I DO NOT BELONG!” she added.

Myers also expressed her disappointment in her aunt’s daughter, Puchu, who runs an NGO for peace despite her family’s history of hurting others.
“Your entire families are hurting because of your mom but you’re a peacemaker? That’s the biggest fraud of our generation,” Myers wrote.

Despite her pain and hurt, Myers acknowledged that she still tried to maintain a relationship with her aunt and even talked to her daughter, Puchu. However, she noted that it was difficult to move on from her traumatic experiences without a genuine apology.

“The day you say sorry, I hope you really mean it so I can be able to use that to find some peace!” she wrote.

Myers’ story is a powerful reminder of the long-lasting effects of childhood trauma and the importance of addressing it. It also highlights the need for genuine apologies and accountability for those who have caused harm.
