Suicide should never be an option. Only a loser should consider suicide.

It can never get worse. You have to keep pushing

You are not the best, you are not the worst.

I have always told people. You don't need to go far to look for hope. I am a living testimony.

I have hawked before and the total amount of good I hawked was 12 Naira and guess what, I don't usually finish selling it after spending all day in the sun.

I have done several menial jobs before.

Trekked a distance several times. The day I told my driver I have trekked this path several times, he smiled and told me it was not possible.

I remember how many people contributed for my Jamb Form. Total amount was less than 1000.

I remembered how it was not easy to pay school fees that is not up to 3K per session back then. The blood pressure and fear of not writing exams on Examination Day.

Parents were once rich but everything went crazy along the line, if they had killed themselves they will not be alive to live in the House I built for them in just 6 months.

I am not rich but I am living my dream life without ever CHEATING ANYBODY, 1 DIME FROM ANY POLITICIAN. Pure Hardwork and Dedication. As a matter of fact as i type this, i am working. angry .

If it is a girl, Plenty will come begging for you when you achieve your dream.

If it a guy, plenty will come begging when you finish working on yourself.

I am just typing this to let you know that whatever you are going through. It will soon be history.

Just keep your heads up and believe in yourself.

Have a dream you are chasing and NEVER GIVE UP. NOTHING , I repeat NOTHING is worth 'DIEING' for.


Move close to whatever you believe in and always be hopeful.
Ahn Ahn why na, this guy deserves more than one like. Shey e no make sense ni.

If she was really depressed and feel ashamed now why did she post this on social media. Is it a thing of pride?

Suicide has become a stunt for gaining fame and attention.

leave that girl na big scam, why would you beg someone not to take his/her life if it pleases him/her. she is looking for one NGO to jump in and change her story. Bros if suicide is the way many of my family members would have died and die again if eventually revived.
bro please you need to change your mindset... Humans vary

My Epistle is not for 1million people.

Just 1 person and i have seen the person. I feel fulfilled already.

The "I too know" or probably your inability to read long post is your problem.

The woman they picked close to the Lagoon that day wanted to end it because of 'DEBT'.

So like i said. If the post encourages just one person to see HOPE out of an extreme hopeless situation, I am fulfilled.

I know you may find it difficult to agree. Not only that, you will also see my point in a different angle. I know you are already picking quarrel. Sorry bro. But I am sure this not your field. Why not ask more question may be from me or other experts. All your write up is based on your thinking, not fact and expertise. If you care to know, ask questions, if you feel am insulting you, sorry, just ignore me. I am open to a well mannered conversation though. Thanks

I am not insulting you. I never claimed expertise on depression. I wrote on suicide.

What i simply wrote is the fact that there is light after a dark tunnel based on my personal experience.

I am not picking quarrel with you and like i said, it is meant for just 1 person and somebody already confirmed that.

Depression i presume would have underlining reasons. Love, financial state I assume would form even if it is 2 percent of it.


67 suicide cases in 7 states linked directly to hardship.

u might really not want 2 say tell a depressed person that he or she is selfish. its something they come 2 terms with on their own sooner or later.I had a lady friend who told me several times she always felt like commiting suicide. I told her she was a very selfish person cos that's what she was. I took that risk cos she wasn't depressed. she was just plain spoilt and selfish. everything was always about her.this might not apply 2 all cases though

I already knew that your write up is based on your experience. But let me tell you a simple fact about depression. I will not use jargons here so that you can understand. Please if you understand this, help us to educate people and broadcast it to people so that their understanding of depression can be better. It will help us all.

Depression is a health problem. The way malaria is. If you see a malaria infected person shivering, will you blame him? You already knew it is not his fault. It is his system that is not working well as a result of the malaria. On a bigger picture, if you see a mad man in the street, with condemned wears, you won't blame him because you already know that he has a mental problem. The same way with depression. It is a mental health problem. Think of it, a doctor who has a job, has an SUV car, have a driver, should be comfortable enough. There was no report of debt. But he did it. It is just a mental health problem. For those that have it, they may not know until a condition triggers it. I have more to explain. But battery down. I may continue later if you want me to. Thanks

Suicide is not an option... Though i won't lie, some time last month i was undergoing a lot of financial stress coupled with working 17 hours a day for ten days straight, health among others. Then my fiancee decided to kill our plans in the midst of it all... Looking back, if i was to be walking by 3rd Mainland Bridge that day, i may have contemplated taking a 'swim'.

Next time, read properly before you jump like a fly.

I wrote about Suicide and never claim to be a depression expert.

These are few people that committed suicide as a result of hardship, love. A report shows 67 in 7 states due to hardship or Love.


I love Thesis and Theory but can you analyze the information below ?

1. Link below shows 67 cases of suicide linked to Economic Hardship Love. Some of them owe people and can not meet up. A lady killed herself because she was rejected by her boy friend
https://www.nigerianbulletin.com/threads/economic-hardship-results-in-67-suicide-cases-in-7-states-list-and-statistics.222216/

2. One woman that was rescued at the Lagoon claimed she was duped of several millions of Naira.


3. Femi in the link below ended it because of hardship. He was evicted from the house he lived. He said every women rejected his marriage proposal because he is poor and he started keeping to him self.

I never painted poverty to be the cause of depression.

I only painted a situation I av been that could have led to suicide.

Do u know how it feels to av exams tommorow morning and while others are reading you are only praying they allow you sit for it ?

Also I mentioned love, where I said if it is a guy or girl.

I am not an expert in depression. I only meant to inspire just one person with my story.

The following information on People who actually killed themselves because of hardship / might still interest you.

I've come to realise that most Nigerians don't take depression as a serious illness. They just write it off because they have this mindset that people who claim to suffer from depression are just attention seekers.
I've been there so I know how hard it is to prove that you really need help.
Nigerians know next to nothing about the complexities of mental health,plus our superstitious stance to issues like this just worsens the whole thing.

In Nigeria, suicide usually revolve around Love, Hardship or Rejection.

What I wrote covers Love and Hardship.
