I am still alive.

I have learnt a lot from this thread. ONE- There are a lot more devils in this world than there are saints. TWO- Some of the devils have shitty lives, and it would make them feel better to know there is someone worse off than them. THREE- Whether it is one in a million, be patient, the saints are always out there. FOUR- No one is responsible for making you feel better when you are depressed or suicidal...you are On Your Own. FIVE- Nigerians are very bad at handling people with suicidal tendencies.


So, let me really talk now. Before I go on, let me say I REALLY WAS SUICIDAL, but I really wanted to be talked out of it. Instead, I felt like really ending my life for real. The reason I have always held back from ending my life was because I always thought of the stigma I would live my family members with, and the fact that I know that if I could live through all this harsh times, I would be one of the greatest men of my generation (you don't know me personally, so you can go ahead and laugh at that statement).


So, after reading a series of very discouraging comments on Wednesday, I made up my mind to go through with it. I had already planned how I was going to kill myself, so I didn't have to go through any major planning or anything. My plan (for about ten years now) had always been to jump off the Third Mainland bridge, this is why I never learnt how to swim. I would drown, and the Govt would carry my body out or leave it to rot. So, I left a note with my username and password on my laptop and left the house. My house is close to Oworonshoki, so it took me about 20 minutes to get to the foot of third mainland bridge. But when I got there (around 9:30), there was still traffic on the otherside...and my mind that was made up at 100% had come down to like 70%...coupled with the fact that people were looking at me weird from the cars on the other side. Well, maybe I was just paranoid, and they weren't looking at me.


Anyway, I just couldn't get myself to jump. I know now that If I had a GUN at the time I was ready to end my life, I would have pulled the trigger without hesitation. So, I din't jump, but I did something afterwards that night...I don't want to bore you with that. But I didn't go back home till yesterday night.


In closing, I want to speak on another reason why I started this post.


I actually had a friend that was Bipolar like me. I met him on Nairaland. He was always talking about killing himself, and if i was in the right frame of mind, I would talk him out of it. So, one day last year...I think in April or so, I can't really remember...he put up a PM that he was going to kill himself. He said and I quote- "I am not going to be the first, and neither will I be the last." That day, I was with a girl (doing that thing), and I just brushed off his message like one of his bluffs. But when I contacted him after my guest left, he didn't reply. A couple of weeks later, a girl started using his BBM. When I asked her about my friend...I found out she was his sister, and she told me they found him hanging from is room fan the day he left that message on bbm. TRUE STORY. I felt so bad.

pls send me a PM

I'm glad it worked out at least for now, there is always an exceptional circumstances in every rule, you can only get those by writing or calling the authorities. It's not always published because people will abuse it.
Good luck though

you're right, thank you. hope you saw the more detailed post (just above the one you quoted smiley )

Ok i get that now, she needs get a letter from the organizers indicating that the conference has been postponed and a letter from her company authorizing her to stay back for the seminar, both letters will be sent to embassy for change of circumstances. She can do it or her company.

you were right about this.

There was much confusion at some point. In addition to the information we got here, we asked people around, some people said it's IMPOSSIBLE or extremely hard to extend. That is very true - which we confirmed.

Some people around also said it can reset if she returned to Nigeria (or exit he schegen boarder) for a few days, some said it won't reset. We can't confirm this, since we did not use this option, but I have a friend who recently left Germany for UK and back, I am trying to confirm if there was a reset. Hopefully, if I find any information, I will update as well.

In all of these, #God-win

Thank you friends.

First of all, na God do am! grin

Just before the duration of stay expired, she already got tickets to return like you advised and her company also recommended she returned. sad

Although, her company had intervened and trying all they could to fix the issue, it proved impossible and returning was certain. We kept praying tho... Remember there was no guarantee that if she returned to Nigeria, she would be allowed to reset the stay. So returning to naija was the last minute option. grin

Ok, about 12 hours before the return travel time, she called to inform me that her company instructed her to stay back! cool

Risk of a ban? Three days later the duration expired and she was waiting to get further instruction on what to do. shocked

As God would have it, she got an appointment with an immigration office in france and the following day got the extension stamped till three days more than the end of the seminar. grin

See dancing!

This was confirmed an impossible feat and we don't know yet what transpired yet but we thank God He intervened.

Hopefully, if we get more info that can be helpful to others, I will update. But for now, the most important information is that with God all things are possible.

grin #Godwin

I appreciate you all for your efforts, advice and ccontributions. I will definitely like to be of help too, however possible.

Technically, yes... but she needs to spend sometime out there, probablly like 2 or three days.

Good info, thanks.

Again, do u think the trip should be made before completing the 30 days duration or wait till the 30 days are complete?

For your information, a Valid Multiple entry Schengen Visa can get you into some non EU/ non schengen member countries like Bulgaria, Romania, Turkey, and Ukraine.
For instance Turkey issues a visa upon entry if a Valid Multiple entry Schengen Visa is on the travellers document, all you have to do is pay for it at the P.O.E.
So if you say she has a multiple entry Schengen visa, then entry into Croatia is not an issue as she is very eligible.

Thank you for this info. To be clearer for me, if she leaves the Schengen border, and returns the days in duration of stay will reset?
Travel / Re: Extremely Urgent Visa Advice!!!! by swtchicgurl: 8:15am On Jan 30, 2015
optimusprime2:

If you have a valid Schengen Visa, you will be stamped in to Croatia.
But I have a question; is her visa multiple entry?

Yes, so just a stamp plus multiple entry schenghen visa is enough to get into Croatia?
Travel / Re: Extremely Urgent Visa Advice!!!! by swtchicgurl: 5:56am On Jan 30, 2015
optimusprime2:

actually its cheaper travelling to Croatia from France than going to Nigeria and returning back. How? by train; You could get a direct train, from Zurich Switzerland to Zagreb Croatia- (of course Switzerland borders France, so one could use a bus to Zurich from France)
For the train, There are cheap fares from just €39 with
couchette, €69 with bed in a 2-bed sleeper, if you pre-book.
So its not expensive at all, to me, its even fun. asides the fun/adventure involved, the Visa is Maximally used, once one starts going in and out of EU border zones, the stay duration (days) is recapped upon return.

What kind of visa is required to go into Croatia?
Travel / Re: Extremely Urgent Visa Advice!!!! by swtchicgurl: 6:05pm On Jan 29, 2015
@justwise, lalavita, the extension process is still on-going, I will update as soon as there is feedback (good news, I pray!).
Travel / Re: Extremely Urgent Visa Advice!!!! by swtchicgurl: 6:03pm On Jan 29, 2015
optimusprime2:

What I would advise is for her to travel out of the schengen Zone in Europe probablly Croatia, Slovenia or Ukraine, hangout there for a day or two then return back to France, upon entry, her stay duration will be reset again, giving her a bit more time to stay and accomplish her purpose. That's basically how you use the Schengen Visa maximally- Move Around with it.
As for extending the duration... daang! thats Gonna be a very hard m
croissant to chew in France.

thank you for the response.

the first plan is an extension and we hope it will work out.

the second plan, as discussed earlier in the thread, is to leave the schenghen area (e.g. return to nigeria, because she does not have another visa), but we are not totally sure if it will reset (like u mentioned) for a multiple entry visa.

Swtchicgurl based on the info provided by lalavita I think extension will be difficult, and they have made changes to their duration calculations going by the link above. It will be interesting to know what their reply will be, update us when they get back to you.

Ok, I will.
