Abeg lemme jare

We are talking about suicide and depression. U are more focused on my looks.

Pls am not in the mood. My brain is more focused on this disaster that happened to dj

Bye

This discuss is far from over. To the suicidal tendencies... Don't believe those seemingly cool pics on social media.... Including yours. This is one reason my pics are never on social media. Be real.... anyways I am still interested in why so made the statement even with your looks...

BOOMnaija:
For this new year naim this one kill himself because of woman.

Ko raye wa!...simple.

What a good nice to advertise one's stupidity in the new year ..Bros stupidity is flying all over your body and continue ooo .don't stop

mrjaydee:
Depression is real. It takes real gut to take your own life. Let's spread love this year. You have someone in your family or friends who doesn't have a job..pls spare 5k and send to that person if you can. It can go a long way.

will you send to me,I don't really have a job.

victorian:
In the past when I was so depressed, lonely, sad and hungry. No one reached out to me, even dating then was like, am dating myself. Yes even with my looks, I was damned lonely, guys coming my way were wolves in sheep clothing , they appear as calm as a lamb but later I realised they were wolves, I was dealt with terribly emotionally. I was so depressed, then I didn't have these awesome female friends I now have. Back then I was aloner but the wrong guys were wooing me, just to destroy me at the end. They almost succeeded, I almost tried to commit suicide but the voice of my late mum rang into my head, Victoria don't disappoint me, no man is worth dying for. You are all I have remaining, pls don't do it. I sighed.

I cried, like have never cried before. Then I made up my mind, shelve guys one side Biko, focus on God. Always attend church service, so your mind and soul will be filled with the love and words of God.
My Worship time in church and at home and work is like Heaven to me. As if am in paradise.

Then later good female friends came into my life. Their jokes, their humour, their seriousness at time makes me wonder and marvel on how different all my female friends were. I felt better, happier, at peace and more stable than ever before.

Na me, sef dey give them hope, and strength these days

Especially when they complain about what's going on in their lives emotionally. When they ask Vicky when will u marry your man. I will say Biko, leave marriage one side abeg. I don't have the strength for it. I can't go through what u guys go through emotionally anymore. Have been through hell and back. So just leave me as I dey like this, biko. . When time to have kids come., I will have kids.

Am in a peaceful, happy and grateful state. Can't let no man destroy it for me again. That's the truth.


And I told myself one thing: Nobody, I mean nobody owes me anything in this life. If you believe it and let it stick into your brain, you will be fine.

I say that, so that I don't need to depend on anyone or hope on anybody for anything. Except on God. God is all I need. When man fails, God shows up. That's the truth about me. With such knowledge, I don't feel any sense of disappointment if anybody says no to any request I make. But when my female friends go all the way to d things for me, I feel so touched and most times I hug them and playfully tickle them and say thank you.

So depressed and suicidal people out there, should STOP depending on anybody! Stop waiting for people to save you. Cause none will. Everybody is focused on their daily hustle. So don't depend on people.

Depend and focus on God. Breathe and live in the presence of God. Attend a church that gives u peace and teach u how to be strong during good times and bad times. A church that brings positive change in your life. Accept Christ , talk to him whenever u are confused and sad. He always listens if only you come to Him.

That's my advice o. Cause have been in such scenario before.

Rip to dj

Yea whenyou were depressed were you waiting for somebody to save you These deppressed fellows dont wait for anybody

Have a rethink!

This word is the real key... Which is the fact.

When will you guys get that not everybody is as strong as they appear to be,

just pray to God depression don't remember you... Have been their and I know what it means.

Yea whenyou were depressed were you waiting for somebody to save you These deppressed fellows dont wait for anybody

I wasn't waiting for someone to save me but I was thinking of everything I went through. My life was just playing like a film inside my head, with tears falling down my eyes, my heart became painful, as if someone was squeezing it, I didn't want to end my life, but I felt I and no choice. One automatically feels so very tired and old. a
Then I didn't believe anyone can barge into where I am and save me, cos no one knew what I was going through except those demons in human flesh , I dated in the past.

I know two of them in my past will be surprised am still alive and doing OK for myself. They thought they left me empty , bruised and dead inside but Smiles they were wrong, I bounced back!
My late mum try.

What a pity! People are facing more difficult challenges and they are not even falling ill.Why kill yourself?

Smart Guy, he took the easy exit.

He should have just overdosed on crack-cocaine to make his journey ecstatic.

Lolz.

Even animals were not built to take there own life. They strive to survive. Why must our case as humans with complex brain be different.

chai! How can I curate this your comment. E make sense wells!

Pity he took an ignorant position based on lack of knowledge. He will soon find out that death does not exist in the proper sense. There's no escaping from the mind which is always there

SPOT-ON!

kkkossy:

Being more intelligent than other animals gives us the tools to contemplate the absurdity of life.

When you find yourself in an unpleasant situation within a dream, the first thing you do is try to awaken – to, in a sense, commit suicide within the dream.

What is the point of it all: our struggles, achievements, dreams, goals, longings and accumulations?

Why do we even bother?

Now, you're king of the hill and then what?

You build an empire only to grow old and die in the end.

And even when you achieve the "success" you've worked so hard for, you might be deeply disappointed that it doesn't offer the fulfillment you had hoped.

Tbh, If not for the assumed religious consequences, and the broken hearts left behind, a lot more people would consider it.

If there were no religions, there would be mass despair.

Now, I am not writing to encourage suicide or anything, but we should also kind of see their point. And only then can we be able to help in any meaningful way.

The way I personally deal with it is to look at life like it's GTA.

There's no grand reward or punishment in the end, so you just have fun and enjoy the journey anyway.

The journey is essentially the destination and there is no grand meaning.

Joromi12:
He could not cater for his family . The nigerian parents and society go force pple to marry even even when they cant feed themselves. Nonsense

People like you can cause others to commit suicide, imagine a comment?

[quote author=OluwasureGig post=74393233]
sir please I'd be very grateful if you can spare me 5k

I think what leads to this suicide is feeling of hopelessness. It is of the devil. And what perpetuates it is being far from God.

People may not know this but there is a comfort that God gives. A comfort that drives out your fears, worries concerning life's troubles and challenges. And this comfort I am talking about surpasses any comfort that man can give you.

But the only way one can access this comfort is when you operate in God's wavelength.

The devil is real. Whenever you are having thoughts of that you are hopeless and worthless, and that life is meaningless. That is the devil. And the thoughts will be loud. But another thought will be coming to your mind, that you are not worthless, that all will be well. This thought is not loud like the other thought of hopelessness. That is God speaking to you.


What perpetuates those negative voices is because we don't have a personal, intimate, relationship with our maker.

You might be messed up, junkie, etc still God has not given up on you. Don't let anything drive you from God. Even when you mess up, don't run away from God. People will condemn you and talk bad things about you. But God has never condemned you.



In conclusion no matter what you are going through, don't run away from God. God cares for you. Run to Him, He will always be there for you.
And in no time, the sun will shine again and you will smile again!!! It is not yet over at all.

Suicide

I studied for ten hours in a day
I never skipped any classes of the week
I examined myself every month
I failed at the end of the year
I then realised that I've been reading to get F

When there was nothing to eat I had to borrow
I failed to settle the debt I became sorrow
Bitterness today, sadness tomorrow
My problem is higher than Kilimanjaro
How I wish someone shoot me an arrow

No one cared about my life
I lived a miserable life
Never once I laughed
I was so tired of being alive
I regretted coming to this life

To relieve myself from this burden, best option is Suicide
I looked for the time when no one is inside
I quickly drank the pesticide
I got myself satisfied
And I found myself at a strange site

I was standing in front of my Lord
I realised I've committed a great sin
I was tortured & the pain is more than the one I felt in the world
I faced a brutal scene
Suicide means suffering continues

Stop suicide, save a life & choose to live
Suicide is not an option
It will never be an option
Say NO to suicide

unfortunate

theophorus:
...Writing Waec and Jamb several times though some people how to persevere,
Working and saving up for several years before building a house and buying a Car thought older folks patience and process,
Knowledge of God, morals and parental training thought holders folks the law of cause and effect.

Unfortunately in this Generation younger folks Subscribe to Special Center of Waec and Utme;
MMM, Bitcoin, RAGP, Sport Betting etc for quick 'Money';
Yahoo+ and other fraudulent schemes;
Codiene, and other chemical are used for highest etc...

Fact is if we don't check the Problems now... very soon we may have a handful of this...


DEPRESSION IS REAL. BUT THIS GENERATION IS NOT PREPARED FOR IT.

you got interesting points



BUT

How can one be ready/prepared for depression?

one is NEVER prepared for depression (that is if many of you Nigerians actually know what the word means)

people just deal with it.

derrydinny:
the problem with people now is that they think everything is about social media, what if his family didn't see it?


a lot of people form depression just for attention, this is the biggest reason why nigerians don't take them serious again


lastly, anybody that wants to commit should be allowed to do it, an adult should be able to take decisions on his own

This is the messed up mentality in that zoo that I complain often about

How can someone "form" depression?

Do you guys even know what it means? ?

mcquin:

It's getting to the people, and that is why many of them are acting like animals

Couldn't have said it any better bro.. A lot of Nigerians are hypocrites and posies to be what they are not... I pray he finds Rest.. AMEN

fasho01:
There are valid points contained in the rant of the op


Truth is we Nigerians don't take non-physical ailments seriously. Depression is damn real and can lead to one seeing suicide as the best alternative at that state if mind.


We need to be very sensitive to others and people around us. That could help save a life..

EXACTLY so.

We really need to address these things

oluwakayode25:
Nigerians are not their brothers keepers, we are self centered and arrogant pricks... Na only ourselves we dey bothered about,,, I cry when people take their life hours after posting of it on social media... Some people go even like the post and Abscond without trying to do anything... Depression is real af... Na person wey the hit dey know as the thing be...... But what do you expect of people that are divided by tribes and religion.. Smh....

true that

Self centred, arrogant and wicked people


What I have seen over the years moving from place to place have convinces me that Nigerians no dey try.
