I grew up like this.

I just get sad for nothing or stupid reasons. I have tried drugs and alcohol but I always come back to the same spot.

It has gotten worse now that the country is in a bad shape.

I have had suicidal thoughts countless times and am afraid one day I would yield.

My life is miserable. Nobody knows am dying inside, people just think am proud or being a snob.

I need someone to at least tell me if this is a common problem or how to go about it before it gets out of hand totally.

Take it easy on the suicide part. Think about the pain you will cause people around you.

What did you do pls?

Depression usually has causes. One of the causes being a loss or lack of a job. You know why you are depressed but if you don't know, try to find it. By finding it, you should work on it. But I want you to know that whatever the cause is, things should be better and you need to be alive to see this. So, I urge you: stay safe. Stay alive. As I said, things should be better.

A lot of people have been, at one time or the other, depressed, yet many of them are alive today and have seen that committing suicide would have been a mistake.

In conclusion, stay safe. Stay alive.

Do something new. When you’re depressed, you’re in a rut. Push yourself to do something different. Go to a museum. Pick up a used book and read it on a park bench. Volunteer at a soup kitchen. Take a language class.

"When we challenge ourselves to do something different, there are chemical changes in the brain," Cook says. "Trying something new alters the levels of [the brain chemical] dopamine, which is associated with pleasure, enjoyment, and learning."

10. Try to have fun. If you’re depressed, make time for things you enjoy. What if nothing seems fun anymore? "That's just a symptom of depression," Cook says. You have to keep trying anyway.

What You are passing through right now is only but a *phase* and u will sure get over it.
I was once depressed especially wen I had no job with loads of expenses to take care of.
What I did was ,I try as much as possible to keep myself busy by attending chch services, I strolled out just to catch a glimpse of the outside life ,I frequent nairaland almost on a daily,listen to music and ofcus watch movies.Before I knew it,I got over it.I know it ain't easy but just try and loosen up a bit.

Do u have low self esteem?
Do people around u always say derogatory things to you.
Do u feel worthless at times.
Do u spend most of your time bothering about what your future will be like?u need to identify what cause depression and then u can do d out how to help yourself.
U need to appreciate yourselfbevenbif people around u do otherwise.
Your life is precious and u must not be like others. Look at the mirror and appreciate what u see.

Depression is very real. But one thing I can say about how to overcome it is to speak out to people around you. Sorround yourself with positive people. When in state of depression, never he scared of speaking out to people around you. Sometimes, Internet can't help. Only people around you can lift and put you back on track. Avoid staying to yourself, it won't help, it will only bring negative thoughts.

Alcohol/drug will never help. You will always be back to that same zero state of mind when alcohol is gone

Be rest assured, you can always turn it around to positivity. All is well bro

Stuffs you mentioned up there are true. I just feel different things might have contributed to the cause making it so huge for me to tackle.

i understand what u feel bruh... some people always think depression is just some kinda feeling you can just pull out of easily..... its way beyond that...

no one can help u bruh... yu are the only one that can help ursef.... because for anyother thing yu might wanna try, it will always be temporary because u will later come back to the default state of depression except you pull out of that shell of negative thinking..

Let me tell you... you are not the only one going tru waheva yu might be going tru..
some people situation are much worse but they survived....

take this last kobo... Try not to stay alone again... this is very important..
finding a gurlfrnd will go along way too...

Think of those you wud send to their early grave if yu die

Hi a lot of people don't know this but if you grew up like this then you're probably bipolar (probably stage 1).....its something a lot of people don't really take into consideration in nigeria. ..
My friend has the same problem. ..He was on meds before but he stopped now ....He learnt to take control over his feelings. ...its quite complicated but easy. .are you the only child?
Ps- he was treated abroad
