What pained me is that someone complained about suicide iyaebethegreat the wicked monster came to offer an advice . How dare she ? She has no right to do that because people suffer so much because of people they support .

They say OBIdients are these and that in a unified country the masses would have entered the aso rock and chase out those entities but when u complain they tag u names for just complaining.
Keep trying harder , you no reach who will make me wear my iyaebe regalia on this forum. Go to court if you feel cheated, it’s that simple. After every dust and whirlwind comes calmness, it is high time you Obidients accept your defeat and rest. I repeat give it a REST

I opened this account because I want honest opinions. I also posted this in this section because I believe there are more matured people here even though no thanks to this election period, it is flooded with all sorts.


I'm 30 years old. I have nothing. I mean, nothing. Nothing except my family's love. That would go away too if I kill myself. I would throw them into disarray and perpetual sadness because I'm the first child. Since 2020, I've not had 20k of my own money. Be like say I'm under some kind of curse. I I have been depressed since my early 20s because anything I do with or without effort never yields good results. I can't even point to any successful endeavor I've had in my life. If I go on social media and check all my mates from primary, secondary and college, at least 90% are doing well. I attended top class schools so it's natural for you to see a lot of success when you check your mates. Two or more have been so successful, they've made front page on Nairaland for successful endeavors in their respective fields. Here I am without a university degree (not for lack of trying), with a history of selling drugs to support my family and siblings. I even regret stopping that because the people we did that together, today they have built their own houses and drive their cars. I've never made 500k of my own money at once ever. I am currently living with my parents and siblings in our room and parlour apartment which is a fall from grace because I grew up in a 3-bedroom flat in one of the most expensive neighborhoods in Lagos mainland, visiting my dad's under construction duplex at the time which he ended up selling along with all his other properties just to meet up. I'm looking at my siblings and there's too many similarities with what I passed through. Only difference is they never turned to the streets. They're what you'd call Ajebo by face but pako by situation. I see my mates with families of their own, running successful enterprises, and loads of people proud of them. When I sleep at night sometimes, I don't want to wake up because everyday is the same. I'm afraid I will never be anything anyone will be proud of. I sold weed and crack and got out of the game as easily as I got in... something a lot of people cannot say. I guess I was too chicken because I wouldn't commit murder like drinking pure water. (If you know, you know). I know it seems like I'm rambling, I kind of am. I'm tired of everything. Nothing makes sense to me anymore. I'm a liability to myself and my family. People see me and think I'm having a good life. Women see me and smile because I'm good looking but I'm not interested. Infact, I've not been with a woman in like 3 years and it doesn't bother me. I don't go to parties, I don't do drugs, I don't socialize because of this prolonged depression.


If you understand what I'm going through, what do you think is best for me right now. Matured responses please. Id hate to bring pangs of pain to my parents and siblings due to my suicide.

Like I said, I don't have any university degree. I didn't learn any skill either. I feel I wasted my 20s which should have been more utilized. It part of why I'm very depressed because I feel ashamed of myself. I do some art. I have a dream of having my own bbq spot. I've watched more than 100 videos on YouTube learning different recipes and procedures from different countries....but if you don't have the capital to startup, telling people this just makes you sound unserious

I was reading meticulously to see if there was a place you wrote about something profitable that you have done, either starting a business but failing, loss of jobs, being deformed or having a bad parent that was not there for you, but I saw none.

So you are healthy (the ultimate wealth) and have a loving family (a solid background), but just materially poor. In other words, if you become a millionaire tomorrow, all your life problems are solved, right? How can you see yourself as unfortunate then?

In life, we have to push ourselves. Things will not fall on our lap. If you wait for fifty years doing nothing but complaining about your life, nothing will change. You will just become wrinkled, with white hair and brown teeth. You will get old in your suffering, that's life. It doesn't care.

I mean, I can sit here articulating how I am a victim, from being born a Nigerian to being born black in a white hegemonic world, to not being born wealthy, and even worse, I will die after much suffering, and so forth, and my complaints will be very valid, but does anyone cares? NO.

But what I can do is emerge victoriously from my despair. To become a hero in my story. To prove to myself that what is in me is greater than what the world throws at me. That I will look at myself and be proud, and others will look at me as a model to look up to. I will let strength win.

A lot of people do not know how tough they are because they have not tested themselves, and don't know their capability. They have gone through life on easy mode, being taken care of by parents that they grew up in comfort, but won't downgrade, start from scratch, and scale up. That is the problem.

Do not go down the path you are going, a path of nihilism, it's a one-way street to hell. There is nothing good that will come out of it. If you look around you, you will see people you are better than still living and not contemplating suicide. Give hope a chance, let life happen. You are too young to think about suicide. You don't even have your own family responsibilities yet. Dont be weak. It is not okay to be weak.

I wish you well.

If you understand what I'm going through, what do you think is best for me right now. Matured responses please. Id hate to bring pangs of pain to my parents and siblings due to my suicide.

1st advice: Go see a psychiatric doctor if youre for that route
Or if that doesnt work
Go see the street doctor....im sure you know how to find one

2nd advice. Get a skill in a field you like (sorry about your not finishing university but you got to move on and from your explanation getting a skill is way cheaper than a degee) and would like to work then get a job with your skill.

I think idleness is a big conributing factor in your depression but the main thing depressing you is your loss of social status....overcoming this kind of depression isnt easy reason i ask that you see a psychaitrist ASAP
Re: I've Been Thinking A Lot About Suicide Lately by Bridget95(f): 7:22am On Mar 15, 2023
Let me advise you..

God to mountain of fire and miracles ministries. Enroll in their one week fasting and deliverance program and you will learn how to battle the evil powers suppressing your life and destiny.

You are talented and of a sound mind but satan is working on you but if only you can take my advice, deliverance will come.
Re: I've Been Thinking A Lot About Suicide Lately by CaveAdullam: 7:54am On Mar 15, 2023
1. It is the male situation to feel depressed and suicidal when his expectations are not met. Hence, men commit the highest number of suicides.

2. We are in a fast world. Meeting up is not easy. If you don't have the legs to run faster, you'll be left behind.
This fast nature isn't what our evolved instinct is suited for. But thanks to the superpower of the human brain that brings changes to its environment, while leaving the body behind.

3. The economy is poor. Politics is war. The social system is dry and superficial. The family network is thin. The worst scenario: being an African.

So, there is nothing good to point at on the whole. We can only console ourselves to stupor. But when the intoxication wears out, we arrive at the doorpost of depression and suicide.

4. You may think many of those people you speak of are free of problems. However, when you stir deeper, they are groaning behind closed doors, searching for help. No one is free of problems or sorrows. But you must master negative emotions and situations to stay afloat. You must bring joy to yourself albeit difficult.

5. Now, what if a well-known man tells you that you'll inherit his wealth in the next 5 -10 years? What will you do? Which preparations will you make to be a worthy heir?

This is just an illustration that lacks weight. Aside from cynicism, what makes you think you can't be favored by chance?

This is a stupid gamble and hopeless wishful thinking. But can a man build himself for good 5 years and not become a changed being?

6. What value do you have to your family and neighbor?

What skills do you have?

How many times have you tried and failed?

How many miles have you traveled?

How many people have you come in contact with? You can't be poor and stay indoors all day. You must force and beat yourself to go outside and withstand the polarity of the human environment.

7. Someone must have appreciated you for doing something good in the past. Why not improve on that act so that through it you can become a better person to a larger audience?

8. What if you are destined by fate to become glorious in the 10th year from today? Will you commit suicide, or show great endurance and persistence?

9. The rich people you sing their praises, have you asked them how they succeeded? How many of them have you come in contact with or through confinements of bookshelves?

10. True, it is not easy starting from scratch. Humans need assistance from one another. However, in conditions like this where help is far-off and your dreams melting like a candle stick, will you just conclude suicide? Even wax is useful, but here you are, making attempts to extinguish your life.

11. Form an alliance with your siblings, and put efforts together to get out of the mess.
Help will surely come, but don't wait for it, but work for it. Along the way, you may even become the help and beacon of light to others.

12. Miracle in the religious sense doesn't exist. Hope is vain without efforts and trials. However, moving from a place of pernicious poverty to glory is a miracle.

13. Don't commit suicide, my man. You'll be fine in the end. Wear your jacket. Place your feet inside a boot. Put on a hand glove. Go outside and repeat the process in newer dimensions and see yourself shine.

Thanks.

Let me invite the madams: persephone1, IyaebeTheGreat, bullythebully et al.
