I feel everything feel as I read this. I am a man, but I know how to put myself in other people's shoes. I am too calculative and observant, reason I understand what my wife went through. I felt every pain she felt. We carried that pregnancy together. She doesn't complain about house chores, but I complain. Sometimes I ask her, if don't sweep house today, what will happen? Lol. I used to do those things before I married. So I know how tedious they are. And I will not complain if she fails to do any. Women have every reason to be depressed in our African culture, not Western world because they easily call it a quit. Here may be more depressed in life if your marriage a quit.
tnkGod u know....we need to sort this out one way or the other...fin group trying but not enough
I am so happy that you have let out your burden, @heartbitcoin. It's so important and I encourage more women to do so. @ceepee just told me about you and immediately I saw two words,''women and depression, I stopped what I was doing just to drop a few lines to encourage you. Like you stated FIN group is really trying. I am a member, although since I joined steemit 5 months ago, my activities on facebook have reduced drastically. I like it that way, though. I am a Nigerian woman, who is married, so I can empathize with you.
Ooh sis,thank u for stoping by am feeling real loved this moment and am goin to do all i can to be out of this. i wish more women can express this so dey can feel real loved again @ceepee oh mai God u are my steemitangel tnks girl .
You are welcome, dear sister.So happy that you feel loved now. Honestly, @ceepee is your steemit angel. Thanks to her for being there. I have my down times too, so I understand. All you just need when you feel depressed is to talk to a trusted loved one. I'm not a physician, neither am I a psychologist, but as a public health professional I believe that I can be of some help. At least you can talk to me (voice chat, not text chat). Please, feel free to text chat me first on https://steemit.chat/direct/maryfavour , after which you can leave your mobile number and I'll call you. My regards to your 6 soldiers. Lol! Have a fun-filled day, dear!
Her soldiers are 7 actually...lol. although i am still not believing she has 7 soldiers.My mum has 3 and i can say we were "easy" for her, talkless of seven. Oh ! Just saw she said they were 6, she used to tell us 7.
I have a niece ...that i love as much am my kids .i may not be her real mother..but she got all the love she needs . shes part of the family and shes part of the 7 soldiers
Thank you @ maryfavour, my dear sister. Thank you so much for supporting her. Am glad she feels better. Ladies always having each others back.
