Ghanaian comedian, Jacinta Ocansey, has denied the perception that comedians are always happy.
She stated that they sometimes get lonely.
Jacinta averred she is lucky to have her family and friends coming to her rescue when she finds herself in such a situation.
“I thank God for family and a few good friends around because it gets very lonely sometimes. Everybody expects that you make them laugh, you’re the happy and lucky one, one without problems but the truth is that sometimes you just really need to have a clear conversation on certain things and people don’t get that,” she said on Happy FM.
“They don’t even believe that I’m not okay so I thank God for family because sometimes you know that these are the people who understand you although some don’t because they feel you’re out there enjoying hence, you’re fine when maybe you’re not,” the comedienne further stated.
She also thanked God for saving her during difficult times.
“Any other person will leave you but God will never ever leave you. Whenever I’m down or whenever anything is bothering me, I talk to my Maker and I tell him you didn’t bring me here to leave me here so do something and fortunately, he always shows up for me and I’m grateful.”
