‘I feel like I’m doing everything right in my life,’ Wilkinson said. ‘I’m raising my kids and putting them first.
‘I’m doing everything good – I’m a good person. It’s just such a struggle right now.’
Wilkinson detailed issues she had been dealing with, including ‘fighting people that work with me, getting fired [and] people being rude and mean.’
In a subsequent story Wilkinson posted, she appeared to be in better spirits as she showed gratitude toward her followers for the kind sentiments they responded with in reply to her initial message.
‘Hey, guys, I want to thank you so much for the prayers, and the well wishes, and the thoughts, and everything, and all the positive messages I’m getting,’ Wilkinson said.
She said that after the ‘rough’ day, she ‘put in some eye drops, put on [her] face, and [was] ready to take on a new day.’
The resilient star continued, ‘Got to get back up, right? I do have to brush my hair.
‘But it’s time to fight a new one, and live and enjoy, and be grateful for the things I do have – I love you guys; thank you.’
