Thank you, this is an awakening thread for me. Also, thanks to the MOD for moving it to FP.

I have someone around me going through a similar situation but I have been nonchalant about it. So happy it is not too late, I have to help in whatever way I can.

Thanks to original poster for makin' this thread.

Part I think in not acknowledgin' depression may be cus heritage, hell mental illness was every so often seen as a curse from the higher powers and needin' treatment from people that dependin on where one's from, may not even be available, r as knowledgeable Elders were taken cross the ocean & knowlege got greatly scattered. Other part may be cus depression is just unacknowleded/untreated kind of everywhere, or shamed as personality problem where it ain't one. And then there's ofc - havin to worry about 'more important life things', like yeh, said malaria. Sadly depression doesn't let go that easily, it's a BRAIN illness like any other and very fucking deadly if untreated.

So thanks for bringing attentions to this, bro.

Story for the gods, Kanwulia. And I know u know I know my onions. But I very much understand, the internet has its way mixing chaff and wheat. Maybe, just maybe one day you'll jam me for road and we'll see if you'll be saying these exact same words. Stay sweet dear. wink

I think so many Nigerians suffer depression. There're loads of contributing factors in Nigeria.
I heard of a study that by 2015/2020 depression will be the highest cause of death.
I'm working/studying to be a psychologist.Hope to help someday.

Excelboi: Depression is real
Some people get over it through therapy, while some others are put on prozac (one of the best drug for fighting depression, though very powerful) and cognitive therapy to fight it. .

Pls how and where do I get Prozac here in Nigeria. I have been scouting around for it for a while now

Very good and helpful topic and initial post. I believe many people are suffering unnecessarily. Depression and similar conditions are stigmatized and not taken seriously due to lack of education. This is an excellent effort to create awareness and get people talking about it.

Yes, the drug is not like any other drug you just buy and use. Seek medical advice from a doctor trained in that field.

Please don't self-medicate. It is HIGHLY unlikely that you will succeed in hitting the right combination of drug, dosage, and frequency. Not to mention, there will be no one to monitor your symptoms and side-effects, so you won't know what is normal and what isn't. Some drugs can have bizarre side-effects. And something you think is normal might be very dangerous.
