Is Depression Real? How Did You Handle Depression? by Depression1011: 7:50pm On Nov 20, 2022
Looking at the comments on front page about the oko poly student that kill himself because of her girlfriend and I discover that an average Nigerian don't know the power of depression, mental health challenges and probably thinks everyone laughing outside is a actually happy inside.
Have been in serious depression and anxiety for a good 10years that make me drop out the university, I walk around hopelessly, I'm in pains everyday, I can't think straight, everything in life is meaningless to me, my own life is meaningless to me at that time that ending it all is the best solution, I can't concentrate, my brain is hijacked.

But whenever I feel like ending it all, I always pity my mother, that woman have tried for me, she have suffer for me In life, she did everything for me, she go through pains I can't pay her back this way and the is just is the only thing that keep me holding on.

But the day I started challenging my emotions I fought in pains with a lot of the determinations.

Depression is not easy u will always try to hold on to something as a source of happiness if u are even strong enough. That girl is probably the only source of happiness Left for him!!!!
Being muscular doesn't mean u cannot have depression
Being rich doesn't means u can't have depression
It doesn't show on face
That lady/guy always laughing.anf feeling confident doesn't mean she/he is Happy inside

Mental health challenges is real!!!!!

Most times, it seems to me life is pain all through. You just wished you weren't conceived in the first place.

And yeah, I'm a pessimist.

After you finish masturbating the depression we get worse. Masturbation always kill the vibes in you after the act. So many youths are addicted to masturbation and that's where the real depression came from you will never be your real self until you leave the act for weeks again. The easy access to he internet has enslaved so many porn is just at the tip of your finger. Unless back in 80s where you find it difficult to access porn

Depression is real asf. My secret is weed. Please don’t try to masturbate when depressed coz it worsens’ it.

A good indica will help alter or drift your mind away from your scr*we’d up life, at least for that moment.
Weed is therapeutic to the soul, sadly lots of folks don’t know this.

▪︎ You are better off holding on because of your family than because of some girl you are dating or some man who gave you hope for a period.. undecided

▪︎ Also, to beat depression back so you can have back some control of your mind, you have to turn your battle inwards. You are bombarded with negative emotions such as guilt, shame, sorrow every moment, but what you can do is try to list all your guilt and your shame and work to forgive yourself for each of your shortcomings even before your mind brings it up. Forgiving yourself for not being perfect is a good way to beat depression back. undecided

▪︎ Boredom and Anhedonia are equally not so easy to beat but you find some workarounds to help you still engage life even with those two. For instance forcing yourself to see beauty and fun where you ordinarily won't is a good start. Engaging in activities you would not regularly engage in is also a good way to push past those walls put up by the condition - cycling, volunteering to help those in need, cleaning the park or environment, gardening, etc. No guarantee you will begin to have fun or find it all of meaning but as you begin to accept that even the meaningless has its place in your life, you start to see yourself stepping out further and further out from under the shadow that is depression. undecided

▪︎ Realize commitment to change is longterm - so do not expect change to happen overnight. You are attempting to alter your lifestyle and that could take years but each step in the right direction is how you make it. undecided

▪︎ Getting professional mental health help is a great way to ensure success in your journey towards beating back depression and improving your quality of life. undecided

If you are depressed, do not listen to the commenter above that you should masturbate, it will only lead you to further depression.

Can anyone that's broke afford this?
There are two types of depression.
1. Monetary Depression
2. Psychological Depression
Though the 2nd one is the greatest but most times, people ll first suffer monetary depression especially those from developing countries like Nigeria.

Monetary depression is not a depression.....

You can only have monetary depression when you believe you can't make anymore money in the future and you have lost all believes in yourself....

So for someone like that grin he can go hang himself

Monetary you may call it ...... But it's only monetary cause there is a financial crises happening around them, this can only cause them to think of Abstract things to do when they let it get Physiological and for that to happen they must have given up on themselves and everything around them.

Monetary depression is a natural part of life.... A billionaire is monetarily depressed about a want and same goes for a poor man.

We are all individually depressed monetarily but by grades/class of wealth.

Yes you are right, though money it's an Earthly problem but it get's worst when the government of the land does not care about the welfare of the people.....

There is a lot of money in the country, but we naturally do not care about ourselves and our neighbors.

Smoke better arizona and loud

Visit brothel/ better ashsanti

Don’t do girlfriend it will make you more depressed especially if you stay in owerri and you wooed her yourself , stay away if she's materialistic and better be with the one who likes you for who you are

Try eat well

Try play football or try swimming

Try talking to a lady or girl your familiar with

Try talking to your parents , siblings and close friends

Attend to the task at hand and try your possible best solving them

Before you know you’ve solve 80% of your problems , the remaining 20% you can rollover the problem while smiling and solve it

Depression comes from intimidation and oppression if you can learn to be on your own and be lowkey you will over come it

That how I survive
I no they reason anybody or life again
Am just surviving and enjoying the little I can do so someone will not spoil my mood

I am afraid depression is not necessarily brought on by low self esteem even though low self esteem is a symptom of depression. undecided

It seems what you lack is self confidence and once you have that issue resolved, you will be on your way to living a fuller life there. undecided

Even with millions in my account, I was still depressed, that's when i realized that money can't actually give you happiness. Depression is very real my people and it's not funny, I was looking for people to talk to but im the kind of person that doesn't keep friends, few people I was able to talk to didn't actually help. I seeked help from both online and offline but nothing works. I was actually fighting a beast but lot of people doesn't know, nothing in life was interesting to me anymore, couldn't eat, I even fell sick but thank God I'm still standing strong

the only antedote to depression is looking for someone more depressed than you, try and make the person smile. You won't know how urs left. We give what we hope to get. Looking for relief,? Give relieve. Looking for happiness, give happiness, give out whatever u looking for. That's the irony that solves depression.
