Hi, lovely friend. This is my first time posting here and I trust you for warm welcome 🤗.
I want to write on the ways of survival through depression.
Depression
Hmmm, depression is a situation when one do not only test tears of sorrow but drinks it to the point of satisfaction. It is a period of pains, trials, sadness, frustration, bitterness, resentment, torment, anguish, misery, to mention but few. Which may be emotional or physical. Sometimes in the time of depression in the life of an individual, what normally comes to that individual mind is hopelessness and meaningless of life. At a point, the person may even be tempted to take his or her life by suicide. It is indeed a negative side of life.
There are certain things things or situations in life that can lead one into depression.
Below are some of those things/situations and their remedies:
Poverty-
This is mostly the major cause depression in the society today especially in my dear country where the poor are becoming poorer and the rich are becoming richer. The high cust of living is getting out of hand that one hardly feed. Even our social feature hope (the youths) are not seeing the hope, let alone bringing it to us. Things has fallen apart. Gone are days when one can enter market to buy things and come out with a smiling face, instead one will come back and recalculating the things he bought to make sure he didn't misplace or lost some money. Many Nigerian youths has set or made a better plan for themselves a better feature by enrolling themselves through formal education in other to secure a better job for themselves with there first class results but end up jobless while the rich kids with third class are sitting under an air conditioner in a better offices. Many are so depressed in life to point of joining bad company or making wrong decision or choice in life. Many young ladies that are prostituting today do not just wake up and make such decision. Many has gone through the eyes of a needle in life, some has been the hope of there family training them through university to secure job and help the younger ones but at the end the so called job was no where to be found.
REMEDY
In all the above stated problem or situations we still thank God for life, for once there is life for sure there is hope. A living dog they say is better than a dead lion. Thank God for being a way maker, He has blessed our country with agriculture and many Nigerians are already into it now. Apart from tilling soil are also into rearing of animals like chicken, agric or local which is even less expensive and stress, fish pond, pigs and other domestic animals which one can sell and make some profit from them to keep life moving. Also one can also learn a skill like technical works . Try some online activities and so on . Just start somewhere no matter how little it may look or earn , little by little it will grow. Avoid all these dirty business and games it won't bring any good result, though it may look helping for some time but end up worsting the situation.
Sickness- this may also bring about depression especially terminal one. Such person only people who can show them love and care in such condition and always pray for them for God's intervention for there may still be hope for them.
Others may be betrayal, disappointment or heartbreaking. The remedy may be leaving the environment if possible relocating to a different environment to move on with life. Also visit interesting places and hanging out with friends if still available.
So don't give up no matter the level of depression it will end some day for there is light at the end of the tunnel. Once there is life there is always hope.
