LIFE AS IT IS: HEAD ABOVE WATER

HEAD ABOVE WATER

Hey you, 

Is your head game? 

There's this record that says Nigeria is the 15th country with people having mental issues and that over 30% of Nigeria population suffers from this, making us the highest in Africa. 

People are quick to associate this illments to a traditional occultic source. They feel any bad that happens to them is because of one person or another which is not true.  And yes, I do believe they are lots of bad people in this world but do you really think every single thing that happens to you is because someone else wants it to. 

How powerful are they? You make yourself believe someone really has powerful over you that you fail to see how small you have made yourself.

Mental issues is associated with anxiety, panic disorder, depression, schizophrenia...and I'm sad to say many people do suffer from this.  You hear reports of people committing suicide and you wonder how it came to that point. 

Society is a contributor. Sometimes it puts too much expectations on us that we are afraid to be who we truly are. Family is a part of society and one wouldn't have to think too much on how family can be so loving one moment and suffocating the next. Trauma can be a trigger. Bad life experience and many other things. 

The world can be a terrible place; yes, we know but do we really want our lives to be so tailored. Suicide should never really be an option.You shouldn't cut your life short because you feel there is no place for you. 

Make a place for yourself. Be kind to yourself.

You feel sad and you think no one really understands you?  Talk to yourself,talk to that part that makes right decisions.  Find people who think like you do. Read books. Listen to soothing music and do stay away from people that makes you judge yourself.

The pain would lessen. 

You and I are going to be alright
