FantaCee Wiz, a well-known advocate for human rights and social justice, has announced a temporary hiatus from her activism work to focus on her mental health. The decision, detailed in a heartfelt open letter, comes after a series of recent events triggered traumatic memories from her past, including her experiences as a survivor of sexual assault and rape.
Wiz, recognized for her dedication to the rights of vulnerable women, particularly survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence, revealed that the emotional toll of her advocacy work has become overwhelming. “Reliving these painful memories has been incredibly challenging,” Wiz wrote. “The weight of the trauma, both old and new, has become too much to bear, and I’ve found myself in a place where I need to prioritize my own well-being.”
The advocate did not specify the length of her break but emphasized the importance of this pause for her mental and emotional recovery. “It’s often said that one cannot pour from an empty cup, and right now, I need to refill mine,” she stated.
Wiz reassured her supporters that her absence would not impact ongoing efforts to support domestic violence victims, urging continued contributions through her official page. “Your contributions are making a real difference, and I am deeply grateful for your ongoing support,” she wrote.
The announcement has sparked a wave of support from her community, with many praising Wiz for her transparency and courage in prioritizing her mental health. “I promise I will be back, stronger than ever,” she assured her followers.
