TheTeen Mom: Family Reunionstar, 30, announced Tuesday that she’s taking a break from social media while she enters a 28-day program at a trauma treatment center in Austin, Texas.
“I just wanted to share and be open, since that’s what I hear so many say, is that no one really shares their care for themself or their mental health,” she said in thevideo.
“And I would say our healing is a true way of showing our wealth and our success,” Abraham added. “So, I am taking time for my healing, and I have ignored people for over 11 months, after having a sexual assault and having my whole body break down, my whole brain break down.”
Abraham said in the video that she’s “looking forward to understanding more medically what I can do for myself,” adding: “I look forward to a brighter future for my family, for my work colleagues and for my career.”
“It’s been a journey to get here, and sometimes it’s very hard to step away from work because I’m a workaholic, but it has really affected my life and I don’t want that anymore,” theCelebrity Big Brotheralum continued.
Her video also comes after sheclaimed she was “physically” attackedwhile filmingTeen Mom: Family Reunionin December.
“I think I could walk through the door and like, drama is going to happen, sadly,” Abraham told TMZ at the time, noting that what she was going through in her personal life was “more overwhelming” than anything on the show. “I just warn others to keep their hands to themselves. Do not sneak attack a woman, and do not gang up on a woman, because I don’t handle that too well. So that’s kind of what happened to me.”
Abraham first gained recognition after joining16 and Pregnantin 2009. She was later cast on the spinoff showsTeen MomandTeen Mom OG.
