All about Tamar Braxton’s personal struggles

Neither Tamar Braxton nor her representatives have spoken publicly about how she came to be injured last Sunday. While the cause of her ordeal remains unknown at the time of the writing of this article, this is not the first time that the singer has suffered from injuries and personal struggles.

Back in 2020, Braxton survived an attempted suicide. The reality TV personality was found unresponsive at her home in July and was hospitlized after she suffered a “possible overdose,” as per Vulture.

A few days later, Braxton opened up about the incident on social media, and confirmed that she had attempted to take her life, noted Los Angeles Times. As per the publication, she referred to her experiences in the reality TV industry as leading to her breakdown, and in the since-deleted post, wrote,

“I believed that, that as a black woman, as an artist, an influence, a personality I could shape my world, and with whom I believed to be my partners, they could help me share my world…Over the past 11 years there were promises made to protect and portray my story, with the authenticity and honesty I gave. I was betrayed, taken advantage of, overworked, and underpaid.”

A year after the suicide attempt, Braxton opened up to People Magazine about the incident and shared that she had chosen to take the path of healing. The Braxton Family Values star said,

“That time of my life was so dark and so heavy. I didn't see how I was going to come out on the other side. I didn't even know that there was another side. But I chose to change my life.”

Braxton also revealed to the magazine that her breakdown was related to how an incident of child s*xual abuse surfaced without her consent during the taping of a show in 2018. She added,

“I thought I had successfully buried that part of me, but it was manifesting in different ways.”

Nevertheless, Braxton shared with People Magazine that the aim of being the “best mom” to her son brought her back and helped her cope with her problems.
