Prec1ous:
“I don’t know, Precious, things are not like before. Everything has gone wrong and I am not myself anymore”

He continued “I feel I should give up on life, I have lost faith in myself, in life and everything. I mean what am I living for?”

I thought about it so much and I was forced to put pen to paper, I had a feeling someone out there is saying and feeling same thing.

This is not a one off situation where people get dejected and down-casted and with a heavy burdened heart.

It is really not even special in its occurrence, because it happens all the time and everyone or most people might have made such statements as my friend above.

Most people are strong enough to find a way out and push through, others are too weak to escape and before you can blink, they are already on the suicidal path.

This is not a great situation to be in, especially if you are alone and have no one to register how you feel to like my friend above, he had me

But before you lose hope, lose faith and give up, please remember...

YOURSELF

This is really not the kind of life you had planned or had envisioned. If you could make a choice, you will be far away from here and probably lost in your fairy-tale and dream, but hey, shit has hit the fan!

You have to remember all you stand for, all your dreams and aspirations, all you wanted to achieve and all that you can be.

The downfall of a man is not the end of his life. You are crawling today does not mean you cannot fly tomorrow, you are weeping today does not rule out the possibility of you smiling and laughing tomorrow.

As odd and unbelievable as it may sound to you, your life is way better than that of millions that you don’t even know about and yet they are surviving.

Stay away from people who cannot empathize and seek others who can see the light in your darkness, and try to find strength in yourself and in nature.

Don’t let your failed past and setback control the present, march like you have no worry in life, live like the whole earth is yours, and really it is.

Remember that, all it takes is time and you will be where you ought to be, with who you are meant to be and doing what you have always hoped for and dreamt of.

YOUR FAMILY

You did not just fall from the sky, you have a family: father, mother, brother, sister, wife, children, which alone should give you utmost joy.

I mean, what the hell are thinking when you ever thought of giving up. You don’t want to turn out as the sore loser, who was so scared, he ran out of life.

Sincerely, you and I know that you do not have everything but you have got your family to light your life up and you need to key in to that advantage.

Do you realize how much you mean to them? How your presence alone is fulfilling, satisfying and enough for them?

Think about the pain, sorrow and anguish that will envelop the face of your lovely family if you cannot put your life together and decide to take the coward’s way out by committing suicide.

You have to talk to them about how you feel and what your problems are, you just need to draw inspiration from that circle of love called family.

ME

Oh! Yes you have got to remember me. I am your brother from another mother and my survival chance is really dependent on you staying alive.

You are surprised, but it’s true, you are so important to my existence and like air, I cannot do without you.

You could be the doctor who will Save my life, the friend who will always have my back … you could just be the future my country is waiting for.

You could be the reason why I am all smiles, the reason why I am always happy, so why choose to be selfish and throw all that away?

Look around to others who look up to you, do you really want to let them all down? You have got to take a break from the pity party and move on my friend!

SOURCE: Before you think of giving up or losing faith, remember these to stay strong and alive!

I doubt if all the posters above with the comments "great"ever experience real depression.@op thanx for your concerns,but in depression u can't even remember one of the tins u post up there.in fact, reading the post from beginning to the end is a fulltime job.depressed people don't commit suicide because they want to die,they do because they want to end their suffering.

And those who donot have reliable friends nor family?,in all honesty,all you have is you and yourself alone. The harsh truth is the world aint fair, and the world won't stop because you decided to quit and heaven won't fall. It's a jungle, survive you must or get preyed on,a bit of luck and duggedness

It was my believe in prophecies that got me here. Pastor, prophecy, if you don't pay tithe things will be tight. Believe in Jesus ask will be well. Lies, lies. Am dying. No life no means to cater for my dependants. Nigeria is the worst country for a school leaver. God if you really exist help me. Oh is this how I lost hope and lose life. Good people I need help.

This is how I got here believing all this prosperity preachers. Scamners who have put me in trouble. Prophets who claim to hear from God. My life is in shambles. Am depressed can't take care of my family and dependants. Is there God. Am finished. Am dying everyday. I will commit suicide soon. "Somebody help, somebody, anybody"-Lion King. 09027846955

This article is missing the main point - depression is a mental illness, all this psych mess of thinking about your loved ones and all that won't work when you're depressed.

If you are depressed, go seek help, thinking of your loved ones and your life and things around you would draw you in!
