"Most of us ladies were broken on the inside and that's how the crazy got in and got stuck.

That baby died and I'm still so pained. Chidielebe, I'm sorry, we lost her. 18 years gone but I never forget. Many years later, the doctors slash my belly and pulled out four little humans.

All of a sudden, I'm people's mummy. How do I do that with mental illness?" she said.

The actress mentioned that her mother and grandmother were also crazy and has she too is crazy, she fears that her daughters too will be.

Chacha is known to have three daughters and a boy.

She said; "I didn't ask for this life, I was born with this. I got it from my mama. My mama was a crazy woman, she told me her mama too was crazy. She talked crazy and treated people crazy.

"Right now, here I am being a crazy little miss. My daughter will probably grow up and be a crazy little lady. But it won't even matter because we're all crazy."
