You tried but gave up because you wanted to . Life is all about never giving up ; especially on things worth holding unto . So go back and pray to God in all sincerity to help you.

You should try and see either a psychologist or a psychiatrist. that was what i did when i was depressed and today I feel a lot better than before. just like you i also prayed, read the bible and even fasted for days thinking that would help me but honestly speaking it didn't. things even began to get worst if not until I went to the hospital and saw the psychiatrist that things began to change for the better (tho mine was more of a medical issue). i m sure that that guy telling you to read the Bible do not know what it feels like being depressed that's why he's giving you such an advice. so finally my brother just keep hope alive, do not bow to that suicidal thoughts(if you have any) and believe that God can also work through the doctors take care!

Wait!

Send me a message let's talk. Most depression is financial and I can show you how to make money for free. You don't need to pay me and I won't charge you.


Modified: After what I read on the other thread about this whole suicide thing being a scam, I retract all my statements in trying to help.

After all, 50% of Nigerians are probably depressed since Buhari took over. Even Mr. Buhari is probably depressed.

Let us enjoy the next level in peace. All the best to anyone who is depressed — God will see us through. Amen!

It's not everything that is about money. some people can be 'clinically depressed', not all those social media depression. Like there's a chemical imbalance in their brain. Only medication can treat that kind of depression, not money.

That's true, but with money, the treatment becomes easy because you can afford to travel to any country to be treated. Also, when you use that money to travel abroad, you'll see how sweet life it.

If you see the world the way it happens in Nigeria, you'll think it's not worth living, but travel out and see peace and calmness in countries like Singapore, Denmark, etc.

Ever since Buhari took over in 2015 — a huge percentage of Nigerians took suicide as a hobby. It hurts me.

The rate of suicide from 2014 down was so low, but now, APC has achieved its dream. Currency is high, suicide is high, poverty is high, armed robbery, rape, kidnapping, etc.

At the same time, they are still punishing freedom fighters and tampering on freedom of speech.

With money, you can easily relocate from Nigeria to a country with good healthcare to take care of yourself.

There are more depressed people in advanced country than there are in Nigeria. But I do agree that money can help him get treatment, but at his stage, I doubt he has any drive left.

It’s well with you bro. The poster has been through a lot going by the date he opened this thread - September 2018.
It’s a terrible thing to have depression, It’s not a condition that can easily be overcome.
Depression causes suicidal thoughts and only the strong willed people can avoid succumbing to suicide. Don’t take your life @albinoflash, drop your account number here and let’s help you financially with what we can afford so that you can take care of yourself.

Not having faith in God is not an option. Please reverse that decision, at least for the sake of your family. They are happy to see you alive.

So many who have made it today have been down that road. Why not follow their lead and take a determined stand to live and defeat whatever the problem is.

But you need God to make this work. The Lord is your strength.

Depends on the cause of the depression. Identify the cause. What is making u depressed. There is smtn.. Focus on the positives and address the negatives then put them behind u afterwards and move on, move forward. The best way to fight depression is wth knowledge.

Tell me about it I would love to help u. Life is beautiful if u understand and appreciate the simple things and focus on the bigger picture.

When you stop having expectations life is trianscient. Some people lived in 1664 some 1866 where are they now. If an shoe maker from niger can be happy with his 500 earning in a day why cant you be happy too.

Single and not married
No job
Got dumped.
Not doing well when compared to mates etc
Should not get any one worked up. In the end life has no meaning just enjoy it. By year 2780 all of go don die throway

Re: How To Fight Depression by OkCornel(m): 12:56pm On Sep 26, 2019
Dear OP, first off you have to be conscious of what flows through your senses into your mind. Happiness or Sadness is a choice.

The mind is like a fertile soil, and the thoughts that dwells in there are seeds. If the thoughts that flows into your mind is not consciously checked, your mind will be like a garden with plants choked out by weeds and thorns.

1. Focus on positive and inspiring thoughts.
2. Learn from setbacks, rather than sulk on them. Learn from the past, enjoy the present, prepare for the future.
3. Pre-occupy your mind on how to get the best out of your talents, and serve humanity with it.
4. Surround your self with funny friends. Laughter is a good medicine, but a broken spirit dries up even the bones.
5. Understand what motivates you, and seek out activities and people that nourishes your motivation.
