Yiddá Eslava considers that her diagnosis is part of her identity
The ex-combatant recounted an experience that affected her psychologically when she was a child, when they made her repeat the fourth grade of primary school because she was “a mentally retarded person who did not know how to read”: “They simply labeled me, making me feel less,” she said.
“They measured my ability, like judging a fish by its ability to climb trees, not caring that I could live my whole life thinking I’m useless,” she added.
When she left the Combate program, in which she became known for the first time on television, the influencer Yiddá Eslava recalled that producers and acquaintances told her: “How are you going to quit? Are you crazy? You won’t find anything better than combat!” At that moment, she felt that her ability was once again minimized.
