20million are in politics. From president to PA. In both opposition and ruling parties. All mad. If it is not obvious that Nigeria has been infiltrated by people needing to be locked up tight in mental institutions, I don't know what can be more obvious. Especially the ones always fighting for political extensions or positions.

Mental illness could be depression. Nigeria and Nigerian should start utilising her psychologists and psychiatrists. So many Nigerians need mental care. Some people are unconsciously influenced by negative childhood experience,people like this can be helped through psychoanalysis. Mental health should be taken seriously.

FFK must be occupying position 1 to 10 of this number whilst Fayose takes 11 to 20. A large chunk is on Nairaland and you can spread the rest on other politicians in the PDP and APC.

Why do some pple reason like they ain't educated, mental illness doesn't necessarily mean you're insane... anxiety disorder is a mental illness, ptsd and depression is a mental disorder which is also known as psychopathology

What's your story? You seem to know much about mental illness...

Hon, I'm studying psychology,I chose that course because its evident that Nigerians need us. And I want to be able to help. So many mental problems are taking to clergymen instead.

I intend to also create awareness for the importance and utilisation of professional mental health care givers,psychologists,counsellors e.t.c.

The right mental treatment can change a lot of things like self esteem,self worth,right career choice e.t.c.

That's a tip 'of my story'. Thanks for asking...
