Month: May 2019

Daily we awake to posts saying no one has the right to take his life. These people dying by suicide know this but the mind is sick. They are sick and need help. If we can show love more maybe some of these guys would still be here because their illness may not have had to degenerate to that level where they see suicide as the only option.

Just like malaria and every other medical condition which if left untreated will progress into something severe and which may or may not have a cure, mental illness is also a progressive illness. Early detection is key. Treatment is key. It will help a lot of things.

It goes beyond just saying don’t take a life you didn’t create. The illness must be treated otherwise we have the problem lingering until it eventually gets worse. It takes treatment to make a sick person well. Let’s not stay and only judge without making a move to help.

May God heal every grieving heart and give hope to the broken hearted. Suicide will never be the solution.

One of the worst feelings ever is dying inside with no one else seeing what you are going through. It is especially tough to go through the dark road of depression because oftentimes people don’t even know you are ill. Common word people tell you is “you don’t look sick”.

Depression is not an easy thing to live with and deal with and a lot of support will help people who are experiencing low moments. Being kind to someone isn’t too much to ask for…it isn’t too difficult to try…it is doable and will go a long way in making our world a better place.

Suicide is on the increase because a lot of people are hard up and they feel like there’s no one else that understands. Society makes it particularly tough for people to even share their struggles and pains because of stigmatisation.

Mental wellbeing is just as great as our physical wellbeing. The fight to stay alive should be our common goal. Show love to someone today.
