Cori Broadus is getting candid about her mental and physical health journeys.
During the premiere of her new E! special Snoop’s Fatherhood: Cori & Wayne’s Story, Snoop Dogg‘s only daughter shared how her lifelong battle with lupus has affected her psychological well-being.
“Since a little girl I’ve always been depressed, I’ve always been ‘why me?’” the 25-year-old explained in a confessional during the Dec. 5 episode. “Just being young and sick with Lupus, it was hard. Going to the doctor’s all the time, taking blood pressure medications. So, once COVID hit, I was just in a dark, deep space.”
Cori went on to recount how she attempted to end her life during the pandemic.
“I was in a mental facility because I tried to commit suicide, I think, in 2021,” she shared, before adding how fiancé Wayne Duece was a pillar of support during the difficult time in her life. “I am so lucky to have Wayne, but still, we’re all going through something. It will be okay, and it does come with time. I feel like, when we’re in a certain space or place, it feels like the end of the world.”
