Speaking at the event, Franklin shared stories about his previous suicidal thoughts. He explained the need to avoid creating negative pictures in the mind or attaching importance to specific dates that represent bad moments, but instead use such days or moments as an impetus for success.
“There’s never a right moment to commit suicide. It’s all about the mind,” he said.
“Depression is usually created through silent pressure which will create a negative mindset, perception, or the compulsion to live our lives in order not to disappoint our parents, families or communities.”
Also at the event, Banky W shared a deeply personal exploration of how he dealt with and overcame depression.
The singer recommended a “love yourself enough to try” attitude to life.

DeleteNigerians just use the one depressed anyhow. There's is a great difference BTW sadness, being unhappy over certain things or times in our lives, feeling of not meeting expectations or low moments over certain issues. People who are depressed are on meds and it takes certain symptoms and parameters before a doc diagnosis depression.
DeleteNot all who suffer from depression take medication. Some can manage their symptoms with counseling alone or a combination of counseling and meds.
