Skolopad says she was rushed to hospital on Tuesday after a heated argument with a colleague at work‚ which the star adds led her to take an overdose of anti-anxiety pills.
In an exclusive interview with TshisaLIVE Skolopad said she was receiving counselling and insisted that the incident was not a suicide attempt. She said she took the pills because she wanted to "rest for a long time".
The entertainer‚ who burst into the spotlight last year as 'the lady in the yellow dress‚' has been trying to make a name for herself as a singer‚ but things have not been going her way.
Skolopad‚ who is also a registered nurse‚ said that things weren't going smoothly at work either and it was just all too much for her to handle.
She said that after the argument with her colleague‚ her mind went into overdrive and she decided to take "a couple of pills" so she could just sleep.
"When I got home‚ I took some pills. Mostly anti-anxiety pills but pills that I had. It's pills I usually take when I am angry and need to calm down‚ so I took a couple of them."
