omoharry: I may not be the best person to advice you, but i'll tell you the little i know. The world has never been fair. But don't lose hope, once you lose hope, that's when Satan rejoices. You may think I'm not in your shoes. But trust me, I had been depressed to the point of suicide, thinking of suicide every single day. You may think your friends are ahead, because that is the reality you see. Not what God see's for you. I have come to tell you that God hasn't forgotten you. For the promises of God in him are Yes and Amen. Always remember, its not over until you win. Don't lose hope yet. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Arondizuogu: Where are you located? If you're in the US, please consider all options. Forget the poverty of your past and focus on what you can do now. Suicide by Tylenol is a VERY painful death. Please don't do that again. I'm praying for you and will be checking your posts from time to time. |

FortuneTeller: Thanks, currently in Las Vegas but I live in North Dakota. Getting a nursing degree but it has not been a good ride. Surely gonna be in debts when I graduate. I am trying to be happy with my life. And I am not trying suicide again, my sister is pregnant, the baby needs a good uncle so I will try and stay for him/her. 2 Likes |

Arondizuogu: The medical area is not good for people with ADHD. There are too many changes and precision is required. People with ADHD do better when they work alone or with repetitive tasks. Pleaae adjust your goals and look into teaching or computer science. Thank God you are no longer considering leaving us. |

Arondizuogu: If you go through with it then lose your license later due to negligence, I fear for your mental state. If you lose too many jobs, you won't be hired by anyone again in that field. The good news is that there are office and telecommuting jobs for nurses. Please be careful and keep a positive state of mind. I wish you the best. |

bbeautylik:I applaud you for having the courage to stay at his family house. You're a strong woman. I wouldn't want you to get depressed over this, instead look out for possible solutions. Why not get a small apartment, so you both can stay away from the family |

Hello people, I'm wondering if there's any support system especially psychotherapy in naija? Support groups / help lines for people who feel low? Or even psychiatrists who can prescribe antidepressants and some guidance for stress relief? Being suicidal is rock bottom and dangerous ,this is the point where you may need to see someone to at least get therapy for this rough patch. I hope things get better.. 1 Like |

Depression is real, so real. The feeling of being worthless, undeserving etc. A point where everything seems bleak, you can't even see the end of a tunnel talk more of silver lining. So much pain, fear and uncertainties behind the smiles and laugher. I'm worried and scared too, but suicide is out of the question. It's well |

question is what Do we Do? Staying in Nigeria is hard leaving the country is harder. Been looking for how to apply for a visa no luck. The government keep singing it be self employed how much do I make a month. God should just come down and let all this end. My thoughts exactly. The world should end already. Nigeria is too depressing. |

I just cry and cry and cry most time when I think of my inability to be able to fend for the family like I used to do years back. I have mixed Sniper with Powerhorse to swallow many a time but I see my children's faces smiling at me during these episodes and I feel I come back to the reality of what will become their lot after I am gone. it's a cruel world, a place where you work so hard and yet no reward for your labour, a place where you help and when it's your turn to get help people turn their back on you. Now I do not have friends, not even a phone call from anyone and it's unlike before when you have resources to throw around. Most times I feel it's just only me.............. 2 Likes |

Depression is a very terrible thing.. There are sometimes I get off but when I think of my parents and how they've struggled to get me this far, i shake it off . I keep praying for my siblings, I'm way younger than them but the wayy they act is nothing to write home about.. I feel for my parents, after all the godly upbringing and trying to fend for us, they still have to put up with their silly attitudes.. Hmmm God help us.. |

Phargbemmy: Oh dear. Think about how your children would feel if you killed yourself. I agree with you that the world can be cruel. But depression makes the world seem even worse than it is. A lot of people are suffering, but there are moments they are able to enjoy the pleasures of life. Think of your children. You say you are no longer able to fend for your family as before. It is understandable that this would make you feel bad. But please do not make the mistake of believing your children would feel better if you were gone. My father used to constantly complain and get down about how business was bad, meanwhile I wished he just let go of his pride a little and see that we appreciated him as our father, regardless of how much money he made. You need to remember that. You are not your job, your worth is not determined by your income or your education or how many friends you have. Even if you were lying under a bridge with no clothes on your back (which is not the case for you!), you will still be a worthy human being. Even if you had to move to a bad neighborhood and lose your car because money was tight, you would still be a worthwhile person. God has created every person with worthiness that cannot be taken away. Remember that you are worthy, regardless of how much money you have, where you live, what school your children attend, etc etc. Is there one person you can talk to? Surely you are not completely alone. You don't need to have multiple friends - even just a spouse, a coworker, somebody at a place of worship, your neighbor. Don't let your depression magnify the bad things in your life, so you don't see the good. Take heart. 1 Like |

sesan24: Depends on what you are smoking same here I can't quit smoking I keep thinking about my age and things I haven't achieved I always feel low so I smoke a lot of marijuana esp Arizona. Only thing that keeps me sane is working and reading, and playing games to take my attention. |
