Tell yourself the Truth.

in #emotion6 years ago

Someone said that 90% Nigerians are plunged into depression; and that if you are living in Nigeria and have never been depressed then you must be a superhuman. These Nigerians receive what is thrown at them but still shove the negativity aside and choose to be happy. Like Job, they await the ‘scent’ of water to bubble back to life. They believe that no matter how dark the night is, there must be daybreak.

What are you saying to yourself?

Do not become a victim of your circumstance. Whatever happens to you, take positive approach to get over it.

When you are depressed you have consciously shut yourself off every scent of water that can make you shoot forth again.

Unsurprisingly, many people claim to have genuine reasons to be depressed. They may have been molested or raped by loved ones or strangers or experienced worse fates in the hands of those they trust. Your fate may be similar or worse but you cannot change the past, but you can do something beautiful with the scars and create a memorable future. Do not go into competition with yourself; many people are depressed because they fail to celebrate themselves and their accomplishments thinking they can never be good enough when already they are the best of themselves.

Remember,
It is with Love!

Where did the person get such statistics from? Nigeria may not be progressing but Nigerians are very good at adapting to any situation. being angry or displeased with something doesn't equal depression. Despite the happenings in nigeria, nigerians are among the most happy people in the world because we know how to find our way in shitty situation. So i don't agree with the statement that "90% of nigerians are plunged into depression "
