Treasure17:

Not necessarily how. There's something about it that doesn't feel right. You see someone everyday and before you know he/she been buried. Sometimes when I rationalise it, I wish I wasn't born. The pain and agony that comes with it is unbearable.

The solution is simple, just look for more depressed persons than yourself, make them happy. For instance, you need money, u r broke, look for broke people than urself, share whatever little u have at that time. You will see how happy your little can make someone hopeful.

Depression1011:
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!!!!!

I support the person above me.
Anyday I feel depressed, I just turn on the ps4, eat a whole meal, smoke my loud and smoke again and again till I pass out (good sleep is far better than staying await thinking about fvked up situations)

EmahnueelGold99:

Not really a kid per say clocked 23 of recent
You made mention of being in the same situation as mine but with a difference.permit me to ask sir please have you made promises never to go back to your habits and still went back??

EmahnueelGold99:

Thanks for your input sir
Am an introvert by the way
Keeping friends or talking to people is not really my thing
In all honesty am always in need of money because I am a student so starving the addiction by limiting the amount of cash in my hand is a near impossible mission

EmahnueelGold99:

I am deeply alone
Am afraid to speak out to people close to me regards my addiction or even seek help from them because majority will use me as an example or a reference point

ChildOfDoom:
Addictions like drinking, betting (baby), womanising, drugs etc is hard to moderate, no matter how one may try.

Staying totally away from it is best. Note, to every one his or her addiction. One not addicted to betting, may be addicted to another thing

stevonics:
This is Africa where the childless suffer at old age due to unavailability of elderly care centers, no enabling infrastructure and other amenities to support the elderly. Where there is no law to protect the childless and aged and they suffer intimidation. There children, mostly the men, becomes their future caregivers and support.
The African system, makes it easy to secure your future through your children rather than the government. While raising your children to adulthood ( at least 18yrs) just assume you are serving a temporary period of punishment.

OldNairalander:
Hmm interesting thread
I had access to the corridors of power as a LG deputy speaker between 2007 and 2010.
I have shook hands with the governor, met many people that matters in politics.
My greatest mistake is not taking advantage of the privilege then.
I contested house of assembly primary election under PDP and lost. I was promised a slot in the incoming govt. if I remain in the party but I refused.
I spent millions and bought ACN ticket (the candidate stepped down for me).
Spent the little savings I made from my tenure and borrowed heavily to finance the election in 2011 with assurance from my god father backing me up (who died before the election)
Unfortunately, I lost the election and sold all my landed Properties to pay off my debts.
My political god father's death cut short my political journey seriously
Those days as an incumbent in a major oil producing local government, the money was flowing. To cut the long story short, I ended up with 7 official baby Mama's now but no wife. I didn't toast any of them for one day, they simply made themselves available.
The story too long abeg

Haaa

Exedyne:



Same here. Went from grace to grass, its not been easy trying to get back up, and trying to make up for lost time.

jeslom:
If I start to talk I won 40 million with 40,000 Naira on sportybet , I felt invincible . I started carrying all the prostitutes I could think of, send money to all those begging me , bought a car and living the lavish life put 20 million Naira back to betting and I can categorically tell you that I lost it all . Now all the friends I gathered in the win days has left me and my rickety camry alone..
