Kim Kardashian Fears Becoming ‘Emotionally Detached’ Like a ‘Full Robot’ After Trauma

American reality star Kim Kardashian has opened up about her growing concern over feeling emotionally detached, describing herself as becoming a “full robot.” In a revealing conversation during a recent episode of The Kardashians aired on July 18, Kim candidly discussed her mental health struggles with her sister Khloe Kardashian.

Kim shared insights from her therapist, who suggested that her remarkable ability to stay calm in stressful situations might be a result of becoming desensitized from past traumas, leaving her in a state akin to being “frozen in fight or flight.” This emotional numbness, while protective in moments of extreme stress, has raised concerns for Kim about her overall emotional well-being.

Khloe pointed to the 2016 Paris robbery as a significant turning point in Kim’s demeanor. Before the harrowing incident, Kim was known for being emotionally expressive, often displaying her feelings through tears and tantrums. However, the traumatic event, during which she faced a gunman and was bound in her hotel room, forced her to remain composed under duress—a decision she believes may have saved her life.

Reflecting on the robbery in a private interview, Kim recounted the chilling experience. “I had to stay calm; I felt like it was the only way to survive,” she said. Her ability to maintain a facade of calmness during the robbery was crucial, but she now fears that this coping mechanism has led to an unhealthy detachment from her emotions.

Kim’s introspection highlights the delicate balance between the protective calmness that served her during a life-threatening situation and the need to reconnect with her natural emotional responses in everyday life. She worries that relying too heavily on this emotional detachment has left her vulnerable to exploitation and has diminished her ability to feel and express emotions naturally.

The reality star’s candid discussion on mental health underscores the long-term impacts of trauma and the challenges of navigating emotional resilience. As she continues to work on her mental health, Kim hopes to find a way to balance her protective instincts with a healthier, more emotionally connected life.

Nigerian music icon David Adedeji Adeleke, widely known as Davido, has opened up about how his father, Adedeji Adeleke, influenced his unwavering faith and resilience during life’s trials.

Speaking on the Rollingout Podcast, Davido reflected on his upbringing in a deeply religious home and the lessons his father instilled in him.

“My dad is very successful, but he’s also an elder in the church.

“I grew up as a Seventh-day Adventist and even attended a Christian college,” Davido shared.

He admitted that he initially struggled to understand his father’s steadfast trust in God, especially when faced with life’s challenges.

“I used to ask, ‘Why do bad things happen to good people?’ And my dad would say, ‘You can’t question God.’ At the time, I didn’t get it. I’d think, ‘What do you mean I can’t question God?’”

This perspective, however, began to resonate with Davido after enduring the heartbreaking loss of his son, Ifeanyi.

Despite his grief, he soon experienced a series of blessings that transformed his outlook.

“A year later, we had twins. I released the biggest album of my career, and I got my first Grammy nominations.

That’s when it hit me—sometimes you don’t see the full picture until later,” he explained.

Davido credits his father’s teachings for helping him find strength in faith and resilience in the face of adversity.

“People go through different struggles, but one thing I’ve learned is that God always has your back,” he said, offering words of encouragement to others facing tough times.

Through his journey, Davido’s story underscores the power of faith, family, and perseverance in overcoming life’s challenges.

A Federal High Court in Lagos has dismissed a ₦1.2 billion lawsuit filed by popular crossdresser Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju, widely known as Bobrisky, against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), and the National Assembly (NASS).

 

Bobrisky sought ₦200 million in damages from the EFCC, alleging psychological trauma, and ₦1 billion from the National Assembly for purported violations of his right to a fair hearing.

 

He also requested an injunction to restrain both parties from harassing, detaining, or declaring him wanted.

 

The case was rooted in allegations that Bobrisky paid ₦15 million to the EFCC to drop money laundering charges, a claim that surfaced in a leaked audio recording by social media influencer Martins Otse.

 

In his judgment, Justice Alexander Owoeye ruled that Bobrisky’s claims lacked merit and were unsupported by evidence.

 

“Having evaluated the evidence before this court, it is evident that the applicant failed to provide credible proof to justify the award of the declaratory and injunctive reliefs sought,” the judge stated.

 

The court also declined to award any damages against the EFCC, with the judge noting that no fundamental rights violations were established. Dele Oyewale, spokesperson for the EFCC, confirmed the ruling, emphasizing that the judgment validated the agency’s stance.

 

This development represents a significant legal setback for Bobrisky amid his ongoing controversies involving the anti-graft agency.
