The way people will quickly say they are depressed is what I hate. Small thing person go say s/he is depressed as if it's a good thing. Let's be clear, all of us are going through something. A depressed person doesn't know they are depressed. Having suicidal thoughts doesn't make you depressed. We have all wished we die at some point in one predicament or another

Women easily get tired of hardship than a fowl incubating it's egg for 21 days. Before you know it now, she will start disrespecting the man as her depression get-off scheme. Then next is to threaten to leave him for one baba olowo

women are emotional beings. It's part of whom they are and that's what makes them better humans.
What I don't like however is the talk about depression as if it's a trophy

Emotional and enduring hardship are different bro.

Some women are dogged and strong encouragers

who come this world to come suffer. The way women are raised here gives them an entitlement mindset. A fifteen year old girl already has thirty years old men buying her gifts her parents can't afford. Now when she meets boys her age, she would expect same but we know that 80% of the twenty five years old are still struggling in Nigeria

Your plight is dire and I feel for you!

I wish I had the capacity to immediately assist but what I can offer you for now is this

1. Focus on the positives i.e you have life and are in good health.
2. List what your qualifications are here someone may be able to assist
3. What petty business can you do? Selling snacks, pure water?
think deeply and i assure you, you can squeeze water out of this rock

Suicidal thoughts are a major symptom of depression that shouldn't be joked with.
Stop downplaying it.

Hello madam, you can do private lesson for students. Start from talking to your church people. For God's sake, you studied English. You can look for tutorial schools and drop your CV.

Also, you can cook food and sell. Look for study centres for universities or polytechnics and take permission to sell food. You can also make solid pap in large quantities and supply to people. Corn is not expensive. Think of Okirika business, fairly used clothes. You can buy kerosene in drums and sell retail.

Brainstorm with your husband nicely on the things he can do to raise money. If you have a car, you can use it as a taxi. Tell Oga to forget salary for now. Both of you should encourage each other and step up. Miracles work better when you start doing something no matter how spiteful it is. God bless you.

I beg to disagree with you. If you get a job, bless God but how long will it wait. Then set up a small scale business like making solid pap and selling to your friends and neighbors. Selling food nko. How long will you wait for a job. If you keep waiting, does that mean you will do nothing else on a small scale.

I feel for you seriously. Please you need to strategize. How many people in Nigeria have a job not minding having a job they like.

Remember you have to pay rent for your house, NEPA and water bills, feed your children and pay for their school fees.

Truth be told, you are one of those who have been deceived. People know when they are depressed and it is not for you to decipher for them.

OP, you can only hold on to that which you believe and be hopeful.

Re: Am So Confused,urgent Advice Needed by Nobody: 8:30am On Jul 30, 2019
Getting married without a means of livelihood is a death sentence! Having 3kids with no planning ...how did you do it? Your matter weak me

Sometimes when I read some posts, it just breaks my heart. You carry your two legs waka enter poverty, come drag 3 kids wey dey their own jeje for heaven to come join you again... But hey! The deed is done already.

Issokay... My 2cents...forget that certificate!

Nobody dey find job for anybody o... Forget that thing! Dust your ass and enter the street of PH.. . search for menial jobs... Waitress, cook, cleaner, housekeeper, restaurant.. Etc.
Hunger no sabi shame o.. And you see those kids so, them no send una.. Small hunger hold them and they'll 'announce' to the world.

I hope single ladies read these posts on nairaland to get sense and not just to wakapass.. If you think you want to escape poverty by hiding under the umbrella of marriage... My sister you lie!!!!!! Except of course you shine your eyes!

See, let me tell you the blunt truth no one has so far on this thread. Some of you went to school 'cause others are in school. How is it that you spent 4yrs in UNIPORT studying English, but can't make a sentence void of errors? Would you employ yourself if you were an employer? You people sort and forget that after sorting, there's another world out there. That said, the course you studied doesn't really have opportunities in our clime. That could be another reason why it's hard to get a job.

My advise to you is, there are people in worse situation that are not depressed. If you don't have a skill, go learn one. You can as well meet some of your family members to raise money for any business of your choice since you're with kids I am sure they'll listen.

I am sorry about what you are going through. However, you are better off than several out there.

Someone talked about private lessons, I will also advise you look into that opportunity.

From your comments, it's like you don't want to do business.
No problem, dust your certificate and get a teaching job. This is the time
to apply. It's very likely you will get a school that will need your service for summer lessons.
An added advantage is that your children will attend without paying a dime.

Take advantage of that and start applying.

When d job becomes permanent, you pay subsided rates for school fees, you get paid monthly and you can
engage in extra classes if you are not lazy.
You will definitely pull through if you think and do enough.
