You can be harsh all you want, I'll take it but do you know the reason you think people don't care about person who are suicidal is because they don't speak out. Except you have some supernatural powers there is no way you'll differentiate people who are depressed from those who are not.

So please when anyone is depressed before thinking of even committing suicide speak out and people like us will listen to them.

I'm sorry about what you have experienced and hope you have crossed the bridge to a happy phase of life?

Hmm. Word! Nice you are different. I have asked for help on this forum trice and all turned me down(in fact one cursed me join). I don't know for others, but for me, the most depressing part of life is not the challenge one have at hand(it soothes being around those who care),but being ignored by people after opening up. People don't know that it takes a lot of battling of one's ego to open up; it is like loosing your self esteem. But then you get ignored. That hurts the most. And then you see those same people talk about love and all that,too.

Did you ask for money? Because Nigeria is a not what it use to be and people are apprehensive of helping people online

Iyajelili:
Please if you are suffering or depressed and considering suicide, DM me. I am a talkative and ready to listen to you and help in whatever way I can in my capacity.
SUICIDE IS NOT YOUR LAST SOLUTION!!!

Iya Jelili. That's nice of you. But you should know that most of problems people face is all about money o. Debts, responsibilities etc na wetin dey pressure people be that.

I know and I'm not in a place where I can take on those responsibilities. If there is one thing I am sure of is that someone who is truly depressed and suicidal ( not attention seekers or fraudsters) would jump at any chance to speak out to people who are ready to listen to them and advice them. Talking to someone(who is not judgemental) helps a lot of time

Iyajelili:

Yes,and I equally asked for any other advice. It is a pity though. It is very hard for me,cos coming online to asked of help was never an act I envisaged. But life happens. I just want my health back,and I could work with my hands n head. P.s. I had an accident some 14yrs ago that impacted on my lumbar discs 1n2. Since I was still growing, my body weight puts pressure on the discs. I feel terrible tingling n numbness on left leg,constant migraines n mood swings. It is hell. I am always on painkillers n ointments.

Elliot2:

No wonder they were harsh. Not everyone had enough money to give out, I hope you understand that.

Iyajelili:

Yes,I do. But leaving me with no hope is bad. You need see their replies. But it is fair. If one is not in my shoes then he won't know. Just saying "sorry" is enough.

True.

This thread makes me feel so sad. Something is really wrong with the fabric of our society because whether we want to admit it or not, the rate of suicides have spiked tremendously in Nigeria. What is really baffling is that it is more common with our youths. What happened to our grit? Our backbone? Our tenacity to win despite all the odds?

Honestly I feel like suicide is just a cop out. You took the easy way out. You got scared and didn't want to see the story through to the end. If things are so bad for you right now, did it ever occur to you that maybe, just maybe, it can't get any worse? That it can only get better? That when you're at rock bottom the only other place to go is up?

Think, my people. Think!

And this thing we do where we 'try to understand' and sympathize with people who are contemplating suicide needs to stop. Any little thing, someone experiences a setback and the next thought suicide. What the fúçk? If anyone tells me a sob story and ends it with threats of suicide I just shut down immediately. Go commit your suicide. Nobody said life was going to be one big party full of enjoyment. I'm just sick of people who are afraid of squaring up to challenges. Life is hard o, so we need to brace up.

We are encouraging this thing and it's spreading. I don talk my own.

I have been through a lot. A whole lot in my life. I have suffered and was baptized into the hard life from a tender age. I've suffered gross emotional and physical abuse from parents who love me but didn't know any better. I was slow to learn academically before I eventually picked up, it took a while before I could master the alphabets and 1-100. I was a slow writer, they always had to wait for me before cleaning the board.

My schooling was a hit and miss. I was constantly last position or almost from Js1 - Ss3. I was a truant, I didn't fit in, I was an outcast, no actual friends if I must say. You know those high school movies that have jocks and losers? I was the chief loser. I tried to find religion, it seemed like religion rejected me. Boarding school was hell for me. I dropped out off my first university in 300 level. Why? Horrible grades.

I had about 20 carryovers for a course I never wanted to study (Medicine) in a fùçked up school (Madonna) I didn't want so I did the maths that it'd be better if I took jamb that year, enrolled in another school and did a 4 year oshaprapra course and be done with education altogether. My dad hated me, and why not? All my life I had been a perpetual source of disappointment and a colossal waste of sperm. A waste of money and oxygen. He always looked at me like he wished I came in another package. Like I was everything he didn't want.

Home was hell for me, so I hit the streets and got something doing (a job). It took another 2 years before I would gain admission into another school to study Economics oshaprapra and get out. This time, I really tried hard to put in the work even though I didn't give in my complete best (women and flexing no gree person), and I ended up the second highest graduate from my department by the time I finished. I have never liked maths btw. I just changed my mindset towards what I wanted to achieve from that uni and a little more maturity also helped.

I've only really loved two women in my life but it was my experience with the latter that left me seriously fùçked up. The goddess that she was, she left me mostly cos I was broke, and she was everything to me. I tried to overcome it, couldn't eat, felt deflated, defeated, dejected, useless and worthless. You know when you see food but you can't eat it, when you can't listen to music cos everything reminded you of her. The hot tears that would roll out of your eyes despite how much you try to hold it in?

The damage that would do to your self esteem, the gaping vacuum her exit would have left in your life. What are you going to do with yourself now that she's gone? Years after, faint tremors of my encounter with her and how epic our love was and what she put me through, it still reverberates with me sometimes. That was most likely one of my lowest points in life. I had never felt so sad.

The truth is, I understand when people kill themselves in cases of love and heartbreak. But I cannot accept it.

It's a cop out.

I have set up businesses that have been colossal and embarrassing failures and waste of time. I have engaged in hustles that have required me to swallow my pride and my shame. I have lost over a million naira before, it was hell. I went from hero to total zero. Less than a year later I made that money back. I wouldn't have made that money back if I had offed myself. We need to control our thoughts, it starts from there. No condition is too bad, it is our mindset towards the problem that is bad. And most of us don't take action, we prefer to sit and pray.

Prayer and wishful thinking isn't going to solve your problem or pay your bills. Take action, do something - anything. Get creative. When your back is against the wall you should fight back, that is when the best of you comes out cos you are fighting for your survival. That is why it is called a 'survival instinct'. But now, people take the easy way out instead of staring into the eye of the storm.

Life was never meant to be easy. The satisfaction is in overcoming all insurmountable odds. Does nobody want that anymore?

My sister,please I need help!

What do you want me to do?

Iyajelili:


What do you want me to do?

Abeg, I need #6500 to pay off a debt I incurred to pay for my traditional massage therapy. I tried to raise #17,000 but could only raise a part,so I had to borrow to complete. Now the person has come for it; and I am embarrassed,I am unable to pay. I am exhausted. I am worried about just too many things, and it seems not to get an end.

Please,I don't mind paying back. Please!

BlackPantherxXx:


He sounded mentally weak.

Everyone has a threshold beyond which they break.

For some, a breath can cut them and for others even 100 elephants can't break them down...

Don't abuse him... he's already outta reach. He made sure of that.

He followed the footsteps of the legendary otapiapia hero

tylesh:
