So you are certain beyond any iota of doubt that her problem is an endocrine one, you diagnosed this via the Internet! I hail thee! So endocrinologists now treat depression. I am sure the Prof. didn't send you this message you're spreading.

I look forward to chronicle my journey towards my healing to help people who see suicide as last resort to depression. As said earlier, depression is real; it can be caused by many things ranging from nutritional imbalances, detoxification pathway problems, hormonal imbalances, toxins from environmental pollution among many other reasons. The most important thing is that it is treatable.

My visit to the mentioned center was where I got the underlying reason for my problem. The rest is now story.

I want to advice you that once information like this is posted, you can do yourself good by using Google to authenticate such information. Did you read about the detoxification center? Did you read about the works of the professor at the center? Did you read what other people have to say about their own story or experience at the center? Did you put a call through to make an enquiry of how they can help you with your health condition if you are depressed.

We are in the Information Age. Please look for fact and authenticity of information before you bring people down. Thanks and have a good night rest.

Sorry, if I may ask? How is your sleep pattern? Do you feel fatigued or tired all the time? Do you have flu- like symptoms? Do you react to smokes, perfumes and its likes? Do you feel tired early in the day but start to get your groove back towards the evening?

Lack of motivation or disinterest in life things or matters is an hall mark of depression.

I often advice people to start to fight depression from their diet. Hypoglycaemia and carbohydrate intolerance will cause depression in some people and simply controlling your dietary carbohydrate intake will help some - I mean some.

As per diet too, eating a food you are allergic to will cause depression in some people. The major culprits include egg, groundnut - if I eat this, I dehydrate like hell, diary product - milk, wheat because of the gluten present in it - coeliac disease, corn, food colouring and additives, caffeine and other stimulants, acidic foods or some other classes of foods.

Start with your dietary changes first and see if there is any improvement in your mood.

Hello, what does anyone here know about blocking of memories. I think I have blocked this memory involuntarily. It was a child abuse memory. I remember it but not well, and some other abuse memory that I have seriously forgotten except I think hard.
Also it's not easy being African and gay or bisexual. Sought spiritual advice on the bisexual but it's not working. Someone even said demons, and to pray but that has not worked. With the daydreaming and this bisexual orientation I'm so bleeped up now. My sis is unto me, monitoring my movement and social media activity. If she finds out about my boyfriend, I'm so gone.
Ahh, stupid life. When is bros J coming abeg, it's just so much to handle. I'm not trying suicide again, but it's just so much.

Hi Good people.
I have something bothering me since 2days ago,... It's about my boss, we've been having issues lately because he is the "i no go gree type" and me self no dey like make someone infringe on my right,... fast forward to 2days ago, i went to his office to remind him about our discussion concerning my pay rise, but he said he cannot do what i was asking for, and i told him that i will not continue working on my old salary. I then turn back to leave his office, as i approached the door, he rushed out of his seat and started pulling my cloth that i will not leave, but as a Lagos guy wey i be, i pulled him outside his office towards the stir ways, but he refused to leave me until he tore my fine shirt. If not for God i would have beat him and i knew his health condition, so i just managed to get his hands Off my shirt and ran away..... To my greatest surprise he called me the next day, apologising that he has realised his mistake that i should come back and work.....
My problem now is, i have so many questions running trough my head, like what if he is planning another attack, what if i worked and he refused to pay my salary, etc.......
Nairalanders pls help me get out of this..... Thanks

wa oooo....Satan visited me and asked me: "How far?.. I told him: "I thank God for everything..." He laughed me to scorn.. He said what on earth shld I thank God for?... He showed me my mates who are living inside mansions, and I said hahaaa and I showed him my mates who are also inside d grave... He showed me some of my mates who are inside d costliest cars in town... I also showed him some of my mates who are inside d costliest caskets in town... He showed me d fat bank account of some of my friends... And I showed him d hospital bills of some others who are terribly sick... He took me to boutiques, to show me those who are dressed with d most expensive designer clothings ... I took him to d prisons and cells scattered all over d country..and I showed him guys who were accused innocently who have been there for many years...Even their loved ones has forgotten dem there... Satan felt broken and wanted to leave me alone... But i told him to follow me to just one place... I took him to d mortuary and I now showed him many of my mates who are lying down there naked and dead ... He could not say anything again... He left me and ran away... Friends, don't let anything get u depressed...u are not a mistake,u are not an accident no matter what has happened to u or how bad u think u are faring in life... There is always something God is doing in ur life that ur enemy are envying.... U can't withdraw ur own money from ur bank without ur ATM card or bank slip... The Bible said that with joy we shall DRAW from d wells of salvation... There are many things to draw from God...and thank him still for in ur life...JOY is ur ATM card ... Without JOY,u will draw nothing... That is why Nehemiah, in d midst of battles, he was able to say: "The joy of d Lord is my strength..." Beloved God might not have done everything... But he has done many things... If only u knew how much evil and shame that the Lord has spared you from in the past 10 months you will appreciate God for what you are today... To him that is joined to the living, there is hope....For a living dog is better than a dead lion. Be thoughtful, be thankful... David understood this and he said... "If it has not been the Lord who was on our side, they would have swallowed me up quick when their anger was kindled against us... But our souls as a bird has escaped the snare of d fowler..." Today, if u are really grateful just share this chat and let others know that its true that God has shamed the devil in his/her life. Remember what are today is not the final.....God is preparing something bigger always......Rejoice!!!..

Good day my friends, I'd like to remain anonymous because a lot of people here knows me personally but don't know what I'm going through.
I'm a young lady, with a first degree certificate, searched for a job but to no avail, I've been doing one petty business or the other, trying to make ends meet, I had a child while in school, my parents and family feel that because of this, I deserve to receive nothing from them. Long story.
My problem is that I want to open a little fast food shop in my area, I'm squatting with a married friend. You can imagine... I need a little assistance to be able to open the fast food shop. My calculation gave me a budget of $300. So I can raise cash for house rent and pay my baby's school fees. She's going to register for her Waec, and they said it will close on 16th of next month. I really don't know what to do. Please, do this for the sake of humanity, and God will reward you abundantly. I'm ready to work hard to raise my baby, please help me.
I'm going to drop my btc wallet address for a little token, as little as $2 will go a long way.
God bless you abundantly. Amen

I don't want to bad mouth anyone, but this sure sounds like a scam.

You are requesting for Dollars, looks like you are in the US. Isn't it proper that the government take care of your child? Or perhaps Father offers child support payment.

My problem is that I want to open a little fast food shop in my area Do you even have license to open a fast food cafeteria ?

This post os just shady!

. You know, I doubt that. The only reason I'll be missed is because of their own personal gratification(I am an only son and that will make them regret a lot of things due to cultural beliefs). My mum who u'd expect to be by me, sides with them every opportunity she gets even when they're wrong just because they're older. I care so much about others that I begin to wonder where to draw the line and care for myself. I get ur point though. Thanks

Cool 10 and Azandiogu, I felt just like you yesterday and day before, to make matters worse for me, the people that I'm living with traveled for the weekend and I was left alone in their house, the house felt lonely and strange, I felt I don't belong there, that I don't belong anywhere, I sent a terrible text message to my mom and my dad, accusing them of using my destiny, which I regret immediately, I was feeling that terrible. But I had to draw myself out of that deep, dark place. Told myself it will all be a testimony someday.
Suicide is never a solution to anything, you will only deprive yourself of the chance to be happy in future.
I'm not going to preach the count your blessings thing, but I'm going to say this, no matter how deep you find yourself in depression, only you can bring yourself out. Stop thinking about others for once, ignore people's opinions about you, form your own positive opinion about yourself, at the end of it all, your life is yours, and only yours. God bless.

life can really be unfair. i dont know but i just want to confirm, is there anyone out there who has never felt loved but used, both by family and everyone they ever decided to be friends with? what i am feeling is far more than depression, that is if there is anything like that. there is this feeling of invisibility when with family or friends everyone just seem to be selfish when it comes to me. not sure if anyone will notice even if i end it all: one thing is for sure, i will find peace and rest from all of this horrible horrible feelings. been trying not to resolve to that, but that seem to be the only option left to someone "like me"

This is technically not possible. Often times when people complain of not being loved (at all) by anyone. The problem is usually with them. You need to look inwards. Everyone cannot be wrong.

Even if you are a contact assassin or black sheep of your family, you would still have friends who would show you love (friends of like minds) who are assassins or black sheep of their own families too.

Everybody cannot be using you, Atleast there should be one person who loves you.

sweetmaami:
i am posting this on behalf of a friend, she has been on nairaland for years but she's the shy type she hardly post a comment, so i told her i was gonna post this on her behalf and she agreed.

This pretty young and endowed lady is a very good friend of mine, she's a graduate of agriculture from one the Nigerian universities. She's from Ghana but was born and brought up in Nigeria.

To cut the long story short this lady was diagnosed with fibroid a malign type that affected her ovaries. She had previously had an operation to remove the fibroid but doctors could only scrap it off and not remove it totally because it was on her ovaries three years later the fibroid grew back aggressively causing some other infections and was almost turning cancerous, doctors had to do another surgery early this year to remove it, but this time around they removed it completely together with her ovaries and uterus. Now it's clear that she can never concieve

She's really depressed sometimes thinking about taking her life, she's this kind of girl that's big about the "marriage thing", she's worried that no man will wanna marry a woman that can't give birth. I have tried convincing her that der are men out der who don't really want children probably because they have already from past marriages and the likes (if you that kinda guy and you are interested pm me).

I have ran out of ideas to console her with, i need advice or suitors for her.
.

Hey, sweetmaami, I felt moved by your friend's issue and I would gladly get to know and be with her if she's really sweet, independent, liberal, teachable and lovable..

I don't think I have any problem with my life except for one thing. "The kind of money I want" when I eventually send you my link on LinkedIn . I am the understanding, non judgmental type, I had to create the new moniker to show my interest. Trust me lady, you look like me"sister". Now, let us go to my school of thought concerning "family and love'. I live a foreign life here in nigerian. would only want one child in this life after that get a vasectomy. It's obvious i could have that child with another woman as the case may be. We can continue the discussion through this number.whatsapp Or text: 08026580173.
