ztapi:

well...depression is a mental illness where one is not in total control of his mind and actions especially when bouts of depressive thoughts take full swing, though he may seem to be perfectly normal at other times, u could google on "BAD; major episode depression, and severe depression"...whatever made him depressed though, 44, able bodied, gainfully employed, maybe bad debts, maybe other ailments, maybe social issues as well...there are more nigerians with mental health issues than we realise due to lack of awareness

A brave man... For ending it on his own terms...

If you are suffering in this life and you are enduring it.... It is cowardly.

The only reason you are afraid is because you don't know where you will go when you die... Let me tell you this... Heaven or hell is a myth.


No one remembers where there were before they were born.... Don't expect to remember where you are after you die.....

You just simple stop existing simple....

Don't ask me how I know..... It is a long story.
