Pls i have been depressed for over 10years now,even though i live like i aint worried,but its obvious i can't take it anymore.anyone who has been here should pls post how he fought through

Please do you socialize....as in hand out with friends.....?

Tough time never last but tough people do.

Live for the now, don’t let the future or past bother you, live your life to find happiness only. My thoughts with you

Religion, money etc does not help...

The only thing that i know that helps and has worked from me is exercise. Keep fit and stay active.... Exercise has a positive chemical effect on the brain that you don’t get to hear of.

Sorry OP. Hope you feel better soon

Have you tried improving your diet and taking up some exercise? It may improve your mood.

Do you have a particular issue that is proving difficult to overcome or you just feel drained with everything?

Do have any individuals in your life or relationships that make you feel bad?

I would not recommend taking any type of anti-depressant drug if you can solve the issue organically

But if you find that you truly need them after consulting a psychiatrist then it's ok

Please think about your love ones who you're going to put through pains sorrow. Rethink about your mum siblings. Please don't

I don’t recall him or her mentioning having suicidal thoughts. All they said was they have been depressed for ten years and need help.

1. Go to church
2. Read the bible
3. Hang out with friends, lovely friends
4. Go shopping, change ur wardrobe and eat well with a lil bit of alcoholic drinks
5. Visit ur relatives, old time friends.

6. Listen to love songs a lot. Add some gospel
7. Talk to white folks around u. Make friends with other races and learn more about their cultures.

Life is too short to worry too much!! Peace

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.

Pls I need ur assistance too pls teach me how to make money too

Love yourself, be good to yourself, appreciate every little thing about you, see the good in you, and let the love you feel for. Yourself touch people coming around you, then cling unto God, not unto Men.

Because men will always fail and dissapoint.

Don't let your joy be tied to another man or woman.
Don't give people the power to mess you up in anyway. Because u hold the key to your heart and mind.
Choose your crowd, everyone cannot be like you and everybody cannot and will not love or like you! In fact nobody is like you. Choose likeminded people as friends, and see how life becomes easy and bearable to live.
Don't envy anybody Because nobody has a perfect life. We all have one K leg or the other, we think and ponder on.
Then lastly try and be self dependent , work more on yourself , your skills or career and mind. For our mind is a very powerful tool

Just love yourself Biko. That's all you need, with God standing as your Rock!

Then life is tough with rough edges around some corners of it. nobody says it's easy. So be strong and wise. And no situation last forever.

If negative people come around you? Withdraw from them immediately even. If they are family.. You don't need such negative aura or people around you.

Don't ever let anyone box you into a corner. Don't even place yourself in a situation where u can be cornered to. Do what u don't like or want.

Don't give yourself on a platter to any man or woman. It's suicidal.

And above all, pray to God. He listened, He hears and He's ready to provide your needs in due time.


I hope these tips helps.

That's what I use for Myself .

practice contentment. do not try to keep up with the joneses. your depression will disappear

https://www.thrivetalk.com/vitamin-deficiencies-depression/
Buy supplements, Ranferon, Liquid Iron etc..
Your depression may b due to low vitamin consumption or low oxygen in ur system..try breathing in with ur mouth 4 10 seconds, drink water a glass

But at least the responses to this thread are encouraging.

Even 10 years ago depression and mental illness wasn't taken seriously in Nigeria, even by doctors. The only one people recognized was the "raving' type shown by homeless people

At least people are more sympathetic now, that will lead to more people opening up and asking for help.

Albinoflash:
i tried that for long but it only got worse,now have lost faith in everything.religion,friends,family,Nigeria and even life itself.can't focus anymore.am at the extreme,just trying to buy time

same here, mine is just 6 mnts now. Thinking of quiting sef. How will debt of less than 500k hold me down

Just know it part of the norms of life ...
See ...
Those stuff called word and opposite ..

There is no good without bad . vice versa..

Just keep on surviving .. After all that what we can only do in this life.. Play and enjoy when you feel it have leave you . when it comes again just battle it .. Take it .. Don't say you can't take it ..

Lastly .. God can remove all .. And all u think it doesn't becomes worth it .. Pray .. Love God .. Live in normality ... Pray for grace ... Just don't be too extreme with everything

Am interested too bro

Antidotecasmir:
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!

Pls can I get the psychologist info, I need one and I’ve got no idea where to find one

I wasnt depressed but was greatly bothered until watch documentaries on historical monuments and realized there was nothing new under the sun and 100 years from now what you have or don't have will not even matter . That was how i got over my worries. Might not be the same for you,but that was my moment.

What you need is know the exact reason why you are depressed,if you dont know why ,then it will be difficult to get over it.

This is cool but shopping (with which money exactly) and listening to love song?? For someone depressed. Trust me, it will kill him entirely.

I love love songs. I can die for love songs.

To start with, why are you depressed?
If we can solve this, you have solved everything.
