Salamina shared that she continues to go for consultations whenever she feels she need to.

One aspect of adult-hood that can also drive one into depression is issues like finances.

In a past interview with I Do magazine Salamina once shared that she and her husband have grown to learn how to treat each other whenever they face finance issues within their marriage.

"Money has been a difficult issue in our marriage in the past. There have been times when we were both out of work, or when one of us didn't have money. It is the nature of our industry. We had to learn to be gentle with each other, and to keep reminding ourselves that we didn't get married because of money, but to make a life together.

"It is important to me as Tshepo's wife, to make him comfortable during periods when he isn't working, and to be mature enough to manage my expectations of him." Said Salamina
