MC Marcinho's daughter makes an outburst about fighting borderline, drug use, and hospitalization: 'I am the owner of my own destiny'

Mareé, the daughter of funk singer MC Marcinho, used her social media to make an outburst about her trajectory fighting mental health issues. She revealed she was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder at 18, but the battle began in childhood, when she suffered bullying and developed an eating disorder. During adolescence, she went through depression and was hospitalized, in addition to abusing medications. Years later, after her father's death in 2023, Mareé stated she resorted to drug use amid the suffering from the loss. In her account, she highlighted that despite having a financially comfortable life, she faced judgment from family members who considered her just "spoiled," reinforcing that she is "the owner of her own destiny."
