Nagisa Watanabe, a former Fuji TV announcer who will leave Fuji in August, announces that she has PTSD and will start a new subasking program.

On October 1, announcer Nagisa Watanabe, who left Fuji Television Network in August, announced on her Instagram Stories that she had started a 400 yen/month subscription.

A few hours later, she announced the name of her previously undisclosed illness: she had been suffering from PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) and announced that her treatment had ended ahead of schedule.

Watanabe wrote a lengthy essay describing the harshness of his battle with the disease.

If it weren’t for PTSD, I wouldn’t have quit Fuji.

《For the past one year and four months, it has been so hard to live, my body and soul have been in shambles.

《I will drink just one centimeter of soup and manage to live. Once that clears, I’ll take five minutes to walk to the convenience store a minute’s walk from my house.

《During May and June of this year, my panic attacks were particularly severe, so I wondered if I could ride a vehicle or go to a place with many people. I’ve been gradually increasing the distance and repeating small goals and experiments every day to see how far I can endure without anyone close to me.

He reveals that if he had not had PTSD, he would not have quit the job he loved. It seems that the symptoms were that severe.

On the other hand, however, Watanabe made headlines this past August when she watched the volleyball match against Japan at the Paris Olympics on site.

After all, many people seem to feel uncomfortable about these things.

How can you go to the Paris Olympics if you can’t even walk to a convenience store one minute away?

Some even asked, “How could you go to the Paris Olympics if you can’t even walk to a convenience store one minute away?

“I guess she was searching for a way to earn money without putting a burden on her body and mind after she left Fuji Television. I think that if you announce the name of your illness, more people will be concerned and support you in the form of subs. It is a traumatic illness that occurs after a very big shock, so I wonder what happened to Ms. Watanabe in the past. ……” (TV station staff)

Concerns only in an age when individuals can earn money through subscriptions and other means

In this day and age, it is now possible to make money as an individual without belonging to an entertainment agency, through subscriptions, online salons, or by “throwing money” through video distribution. However, a person involved in entertainment production says that there are risks involved.

The more famous you become, the more negative comments you receive, such as slander and libel,” he said. If you belong to a company or office like Fuji Television, the company will respond and protect you, but if you are an individual, you have to deal with everything on your own. In Mr. Watanabe’s case, it seems that he has suffered from PTSD, and just reading the comments could be stressful for him. For that reason, I am a little concerned about her resuming her personal activities at this time.

Now that her treatment is over, she may appear in the media again as a “female announcer.

At 27 years old, Watanabe is still young. In her first year with Fuji Television, she was selected as the fourth tour guide for “Moshi Moshi Tours” and was also appointed to “Mezamashi TV”.
