RE: Clinical Depression|| How Strong is Your Advocacy?

The thing about getting depressed is that on the surface, you look fine. And that’s the problem people have with understanding it. They’re finding it difficult to look past the facade you’ve put up behind the suffering you’re telling them you’re going through.

Man, where are you traveling to tomorrow?

Health-wise, depression-wise. I look okay on the surface, but I'm not. The first misunderstanding comes directly from my extended family. All they see is a a person who is okay, even with all my attempts in explaining what's going on.

Man, where are you traveling to tomorrow?

Eastern Nigeria. I have an inevitable commitment I need to handle.

Yeah man, it’s especially difficult to explain these types of things to the old. Depression was not really considered a thing in their era, so I don’t really blame them sometimes. I just wish they evolved with us.

Alright. Try to have a bit of fun when you go. I know you’re tired and stressed out, but still. Problem no dey finish.
