Aisha Bubah, Counselling Psychologist, Network for Psychosocial Support, Africa (NPS-Africa), has advised the world to take care of their mental health to avoid depression.
If one is in a happy state means less of troubles, stress and better well-being; if one is unhappy there will be depression, suicide, anxiety and stress disorder.
“Depression is a significant problem that has affected some youths which has made them to be drug addicts.
“Drug addiction is being experimented due to the poor state of mental health and seeks temporary pleasure and satisfaction,” she said.
Ms. Bubah said there cannot be health without mental health, saying one should be surrounded with positive people for well-being.
Besides, she urged Nigerians to share their thoughts with positive people to enhance their mental health.
“Constantly surrounding yourself with positive people will help manage stress. Buying expensive clothes, jewelleries will not bring permanent happiness.
