. Yeah you are right. Poverty is actually not the cause of it all. But let's say the truth to ourselves. We all know the primary reasons why people opt to commit suicide in Nigeria . Majority of them are relatively related to high rate of hardship in our country. We are suffering. So some opt to commit suicide in order to end their miserable lives.


You're wrong. What we usually see is suicides caused by heart breaks and other emotional problems like failure in schools, divorce or separation, post mortem depression et al. It's weird because many of us usually think it should be due to financial issues but we are very emotional people here

I struggled to read the writeup. Please OP do well to edit and proofread your post before posting. Most Nigerians are depressed, even the rich. The good thing is that most of us adapt/readjust quickly to reality. Unfortunately, some find it difficult to adapt and opt for the easy way out.
I was discouraged to read too... So came straight to comments

Something that has been studied for many years and backed up with working evidence. Depressed people have been treated or managed without them visiting a church or knowing a pastor.
Dont bother educating them. Then they wonder why they are so far behind the rest of the world.

Your problem is comprehension. Did I mention pastor or church in my post?

Man is a tripartite being. Spirit, Soul and body.

Why am I wasting energy self.
What has this unverifiable information about man being a tripartite being got to do with depression?

Re: How To Fight Depression In Nigeria: What To Do When Depressed by dia4iam(m): 7:37am On Jun 23, 2019
Depression like anger is a normal feeling that anyone could find himself in at one point or the other. It is very normal like I said, and it is how one reacts to it that leads one on to suicide or resets one to stability. There are so many triggers for depression but I think depression will not proceed without a catalyst, which is being over-analytic. I think the first step to combating depression is taking a breather from whatever is making one depressed in the first place and if it hurts too deeply, talking to a more experienced person, or anybody at all within reach.

More importantly, one should always remember that life is not meant to be an army of one, we are here for all of us. So, it is important to reach out for support when we are drowning. Nobody has it all figured out, and a problem shared is half-solved.

But you end up not proffering a solution..yes u actually capture the real symptoms of depression.But what i want you to understand is depressed people don't commit suicide because they want to end their lives,but they do it just to end their suffering..If you have never been depressed is very difficult to understand what the depressed are going through.This year makes it 11years since i got depressed.it may surprise you to know that for this this 11years i have never felt happy for 1 minute..i lost interest in all the activities i once enjoy a lot.so tell me,am i actually living a life? Though i will never commit suicide but such action would never mean ending my life,because the life is already miserable....But like i said,no suicide for me,i have been fighting,i will continue to fight..Anyway thanks for remembering us.
How do you fight yours?
These days fighting is not even easy for me. embarassed

Depression is a spirit that starts with talking to your head. Once you keep quiet, suicide is the last stage

Pls don't let anyone make you feel stupid here, YOU ARE VERY CORRECT!!!
