Yes! It is real,depression is real.
This is a mental health disorder characterized by persistently depressed mood or loss of interest in activities causing significant impairment in daily life. Shocking to know? It has been discovered that there are more than 1.5 million cases per year in Nigeria.
1.5 MILLION cases!!!!
Also shocking to know?it has also been discovered that mostly people under 25 suffer depression and that's why it gets worse as they grow older.
How to know you're getting depressed or you're depressed?
When you notice,
Difficulty in sleeping
Appetite change
Thoughts of death or suicide or even suicide attempts
Moving and talking more slowly
Feeling restless
Decreased energy and many more
Please,talk to someone about it,preferably see a therapist
Also check up on your friends,once in a while(not everyday oh) cuz it gets irritating to call someone everyday tho,check up on your supposedly "close or special" friends.
You never know who you could be saving from doing something crazy to him or herself.
Don't live your friendship based on memories you shared,live it on memories you share.
This is real!

But it can also be cured,if depression gets too bad,you should go for psychotherapy where you will be introduced to antidepressants which sometimes can cause some changes in the brain for the first time.
Please talk to someone today,don't let it eat you up..
(You could share,you would be saving someone's life today)
