Health / Surviving Uncertain Times In Nigeria: Stress-busting Strategies For Thriving by vengedre(m): 8:51pm On Feb 04, 2023
Staying Resilient in Nigeria: Navigating Uncertain Times with Effective Stress Management Techniques
Nigeria is facing several challenges, including a cash shortage, nationwide fuel scarcity, and an upcoming election. These uncertain times can be stressful and overwhelming, but staying resilient and maintaining well-being are important.

This article aims to provide practical tips for managing stress and navigating the current challenges in Nigeria. From difficulties withdrawing cash from banks and ATMs to navigating fuel scarcity and preparing for elections, life in Nigeria can be a source of stress and uncertainty.

However, it's possible to stay positive and carry on despite the challenges by developing resilience and utilizing effective stress management techniques. In this article, I'll explore the current challenges faced in Nigeria and offer practical tips for reducing stress and staying resilient.

The Challenge of Cash Shortage
The cash shortage in Nigeria has made daily transactions more difficult for many people. Banks and ATMs frequently run out of cash, leading to long lines and frustration for those trying to withdraw money. Despite the challenges, it's important to remain positive and look for solutions.

One solution is to utilize digital payment options, which are becoming increasingly prevalent in Nigeria due to the government's push toward a cashless economy. Digital payments offer greater convenience and efficiency and can also help reduce the stress of worrying about having enough cash.

Managing financial stress in uncertain times is also about being proactive and organized. This means creating a budget, sticking to it, and being mindful of spending habits. Taking control of your finances can reduce stress and make you feel more in control of your situation.

In addition to practical solutions, it's important to maintain a positive outlook and focus on well-being. This can include spending time with supportive friends and family, and engaging in activities that bring joy and a sense of fulfillment. Despite the challenges posed by the cash shortage, it's possible to stay resilient and maintain a sense of well-being.

Coping with Fuel Scarcity
Nationwide fuel scarcity is another challenge faced by many Nigerians. Long lines at petrol stations and rising fuel prices can be a source of stress and frustration. But despite the difficulties, there are steps you can take to manage the stress of fuel scarcity.

One solution is to be proactive and plan. This means keeping an eye on fuel prices and filling up when prices are low, as well as exploring alternative modes of transportation where possible. Carpooling, using public transportation, or biking can reduce the stress of constantly worrying about finding petrol for daily activities.

It's also important to practice stress management techniques, such as deep breathing, meditation, or physical activity, to help manage the stress of fuel scarcity. Engaging in activities that bring peace and relaxation, such as yoga or reading, can also be beneficial.

Finally, it's important to remember that fuel scarcity, like all challenges, is temporary. By staying positive and focusing on well-being, you can maintain resilience and continue to go about your daily activities despite the difficulties posed by fuel scarcity.

Preparing for Elections
The upcoming elections in Nigeria add another layer of uncertainty to an already challenging situation. Political tensions can run high, and the election's outcome can significantly impact the country's future. But despite the potential for stress and anxiety, there are steps you can take to stay resilient during this time.

One of the most important steps you can take is to exercise your right to vote. Participating in the democratic process can help you feel more empowered and in control of your situation. It is also crucial to ensure that your voice is heard and your values are represented in the election outcome.

In addition to voting, educating yourself on the issues and the candidates is important. This can help you make informed decisions and ensure that you are casting your vote in a way that aligns with your values and beliefs.

Taking care of your emotional well-being during this time is also important. This means avoiding exposure to excessively negative or divisive news and social media content and seeking out sources of support, such as friends, family, or mental health professionals.

It's important to remember that elections are just one part of a larger process and that the country will continue to move forward regardless of the outcome. By staying positive and focusing on well-being, you can maintain resilience and navigate the uncertainties of the election season with grace and ease.

Building Resilience
Navigating the challenges of cash scarcity, fuel scarcity, and elections can be stressful and challenging. But by staying proactive, practicing stress management techniques, and taking care of your emotional well-being, you can maintain resilience and continue your daily activities with ease.

It's important to remember that these challenges, like all difficulties, are temporary. By staying positive and focusing on well-being, you can overcome the challenges posed by uncertain times and come out stronger on the other side.

In these trying times, it's more important than ever to unite as a community and support one another. Whether through volunteering, offering support to friends and family, or simply being there for one another, coming together as a community can help everyone overcome the difficulties of uncertain times and build a stronger, more resilient future.

Conclusion: Building a Better Future
As Nigeria moves forward, it's important to remember that these challenges are temporary and present an opportunity to build a better future. By caring for ourselves and each other and working together to overcome the difficulties of uncertain times, we can build a stronger, more resilient country.

It's time for Nigeria to unite and create a brighter future for all its citizens. Whether through volunteering, offering support to friends and family, or simply being there for one another, every small act of kindness and generosity can make a big impact.

So let's roll up our sleeves and get to work building a better future for ourselves, our families, and our country. With resilience, determination, and a commitment to working together, we can overcome challenges and create a brighter future for all Nigerians.

Family / Re: The Biggest Mistake In Marriage Right Now For A Woman by vengedre(m): 4:57am On May 23, 2020
KingSatan:


As a man, a father and a grandfather. I have lived life to an extent and this is my view on this subject.

The previous thread was simple and concise, "Never marry a woman who has no means of income".

But that is the truth!

Gone are the days when people marry "Obiageri's" according to the Igbos.
Back then, things weren't this bad. Considering the family setting in those days, women had no other role than to cook, birth, raise children and clean the house.

So their parents prepare them for marriage, teach them how to cook, satisfy a man and raise children. They also spend alot of time grooming their hairs, taking care of their skin (Some parents send their children to fattening rooms) and waiting to get married.

When we got married, we married to keep them at home and show off to our friends. Only a few of us married because of love. Some of our partners were not our choice but our parents.

So when you marry, your wife and children should always reflect your wealth and networth. Most especially, YOUR WIFE.

I repeat, back then things were not this bad and everyone knew their roles.

But in today's world, so many things have changed.

Women should bring to the table as much as they expect from the man.

Raising children costs alot of money and shouldn't be the responsibility of the man alone.

So many marriages have crashed on the alter of poverty or "One stream of income".

We must learn to tell ourselves the truth always.

Back then, you don't spend so much to raise a child. If he or she wants to go to the community school or follow the white man's way of life, you send them as a punishment. But those humble and loyal sons, follow you to the farm and when they come of age, you give them farmlands and wives if possible. But that's not the case anymore.

Apart from formal education abroad, I also encouraged my children to learn sellable skills. One of my son is a fashion designer and that is what puts food on his table in the UK. His college degree only reflects on his call cards.

I told this to my children (Daughters inclusive) never to marry a man or woman who has no verifiable means of income.

Money is needed to run a home in the 21st century. Alot of money!

We no longer live in mud houses or drink from pots.

As for "Entitlement", I think every couple should have that mentality depending on the context.

The man is entitled to his wife's emotional commitment. She is his wife and this also applies to the man.

I am tired of typing.

To be truthful, i warned my son's against mingling with an average African woman. They simply don't want to know the truth. They hate the truth with Passion and that is why true feminism failed woefully here.

In the Diaspora, most men who want peace of mind avoid African women because of their "Entitlement Mentality" and how exploitative they are.

Many of these women don't work but enjoy proceeds of child support from numerous partners. You think it's a coincidence? No it not. It was deliberate.

They just want to seat at home, get fat, enlarge their butts and walk up and down the street like a pussy cat that resides in Buckingham Palace.

Should I talk about Nigeria, where you meet an average Nigerian lady and realise that;

1. She is a college graduate because a "Man" sponsored her in school (Both of them are no longer together as a couple).

2. She has a roof over her head because a "Man" made that available (She has no intention of marrying him).

3. She uses the best smartphone because a "Man" bought it for her (Just another random man).

4. She has clothes on her body because a "Man" gave her money for shopping (Obviously he is "One of those mugus"wink.

5. She has food on her table because so many men send her money.

This same woman has no other skill but sexual skills. The only thing she can offer is "Sexual Intercourse", "Birthing Children" and "Companionship" but she expects the man to "Mark her birthdays with a brand new Escalade", "Buy her parents a new house and train her younger ones in school". Is that not exploitation?

This same woman hates her mother inlaw because she sees her as her rival. Anyway, women have always hated themselves from time immemorial, don't get moved when you see them shout in solidarity, it's just for a few seconds.

When asked about their contribution in the relationship or Marriage, some will say "I birthed children for him". But that's your natural default woman!

Even if you sleep with a sexually active mad man, you will get pregnant and birth for him.

Some will even say, "I satisfy him sexually. I gave him my body and soul". But that is same thing you did with your numerous ex lovers.

According to Pastor Sam Adeyemi, he said "If a woman does not help her husband financially, then how else does she want to help him".

In this age and time, it takes two adults who have a verifiable means of income to build a healthy family.


Cheers!

Omo peeps get strength sha o

AceHood once said: "A w.hore will always be a w.hore". Come to think of it, you have kids for your husband, imagine growing up to realize your mom used to fuc.k her colleague at work till your dad sent her out of his house... You heartless though but I don't know really, maybe your husband should forgive u (1.) Cos y'all have kids together(which nobody knows if he's the true father) and (2.) Cos you regretted your actions and told him, without him even suspecting anything, though that doesn't mean you won't still fuc.k around, since "a w.hore will always be a w.hore"... I wish you well though, everybody makes mistakes at some point and I pray he forgives you.

These so called men are giving the good ones bad reputation. Imagine one fool begging for airtime!
Connected with an Ode who claimed to be working with an oil company o, off course I knew dude was shady so I told him about withdrawing 1000$, this scum didn't even wait for 2 hours before asking for airtime. I refused o and the mofo blocked me. (Never asked him for nothing o)

Its so bad we have to many leaching men out there, many of them claiming to be what they are not. This mofo probably saw the thread where I gave out airtime and thought I'd be an easy target for free airtime. Make una dey reduce una lies, we know its tough but trying to milk a lady is so low.

Hanty airtime, me sef I need airtime o
