Take her to see a psychiatrist for medication. People should understand that depression is an illness and needs medication. Depression is when the happy hormones drops in us when some hormones in the brain drops due to incident or truama and with proper medication she will revive and be happy again just that it comes with cost . talking out of experience I can't open all details here but you can reach me for further discussion onyekakk@gmail.com. 1 Like |

Blackazuma99: Depression is a functional mental health condition and and could lead to suicide or suicidal ideation. Demise of a love one is a known trigger. Unfortunately, in Nigeria mental health is not a priority in our society.Primarily, she would benefit from antidepressant drug but needs to be reviewed by a psychiatrist who can make the prescription. Equally, cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) from a clinical psychologist, and positive activity engagement are important adjunct therapy for depression. This is the standard of care in the NHS (UK) as I work in this setting, please be proactive in getting her a mental assessment. 1 Like |

This might sound absurd to some people here but the truth is that.... If you truly love God with all your heart and you put God first in everything above all other things including your children, husband, wife, Jobs, achievements, finance etc...regardless of religion denomination.......If you eventually lost any of these things have mentioned co-incidentally especially when it is beyong your control and God still stands out in your life, as human you will feel very sad and unhappy no doubt but the love you have for God above all those things will comfort you overtime as he continually comforts you. 1 Like 1 Share |

You need to give her problem to solve to put her on her toes. One of you should pretend seriously ill or in deep problem that will waken the giant in her again. Avoid over petting give her issues to solve cos she is becoming too comfortable n complacent. |

Grand kids is the best way to heal from depression for your mum, take her out along with d grand kids and take alot of pixs and videos. Not just one grand kid like 2 or 3,she would be so busy watchin them she won't av time to think of sumtin else |
Re: Urgent Advice Needed To Protect My Mum From Depression. by bukatyne(f): 9:01pm On Jun 09, 2023 |
Since trading is not helping, a grandchild/ grandchildren would lift her spirits because she would be looking towards her future. Also engage her to understand the source of depression: loneliness? Afraid of death? Tired of life? Afraid that others would eventually leave her? Etc. When you understand, then you can consider seeking a therapist. It is well. |

[color=#990000][/color] I am sorry about your losses and your Mom's. However you might need to do somethings other than console or appeal to. She has been hit with some pretty challenging life circumstances so she might need some medicinal help. You can take her to see a doctor that can prescribe some medications for her or you could try some herbal supplements e.g. Rhodiola Rosea. You can Google it. It is available in Nigeria. Very effective. However, not to be mixed with alcohol or any other CNS altering drugs. I repeat, it is very effective. All the best! P.S. Laraholic.ng stock a lovely brand that I can vouch for. (I am not their agent). Blackazuma99: |

Tell God the changes you wish to see in her and use her as a point of contact to widows facing same plite all over the world especially those of the house hold of fairh... Remember to use bible references in your prayers.. God bless |

Blackazuma99:Depression is not something you can just wish away. It’s actually caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain. Sometimes psychotherapy alone works, but depending on how much it may have progressed, meds may become a necessity. Have you sought professional counseling service for her? That’s where you should start. It’s good to get her something that would keep her busy, but she first needs to be in the right state of mind. |
