    1. You are exempting yourself and your family because you’re stigmatizing mental illness. In other words, you think mental illness means madness. Unfortunately, that’s a very ignorant way to look at it.

      This information is very believable. Let me break it down for you:

      Anxiety and depression are mental illnesses. If you’ve lived in or still live in Nigeria, the chances are very high that you’re experiencing anxiety and depression. The environment has been designed to do that to you, especially in the workplace.

      Some people haven’t been able to recover from past traumatic events like the death of a loved one, pregnancy loss, car accidents, difficult breakups or divorces, domestic abuse, witnessing violence or death, etc. Others are constantly angry at every and anything. Can you see yourself or anyone you know in what I’ve just described?

      So to avoid any display of ignorance, you should get yourself/family evaluated first and then get more awareness about mental illnesses so that you’ll know how to help yourself/others who are suffering in silence or living in denial.

  5. Lies from the pits of hell. He is saying one in about 3 Nigerians have mental illness. If that's the case, then at least 10 people in his family have mental issues. He should start treating them as a psychiatrist. Let's start from there.

  11. As for me, I know my place of work has affected my mental health seriously. I wish I could post the message one of my colleagues that just resigned sent to our MD. The guy had a serious mental breakdown and was crying like somebody died. At the end, he said he would rather resign than mad. I have a feeling that he was suicidal at some point. Best believe a one-man business is the "worstest" place to work in this country, they will overuse you and pay you meagre salary and still expect you to say thank you for paying us. I

  17. When people hear mental health, they think it's madness we are talking about. Anxiety disorder, depression,panic attacks,schizophrenia, OCD etc are all mental health problems. Let's pay attention to our health pls and know when to see the doctor pls.
