Depression is becoming the greatest problem among youth in Africa. Because we are not well prepared by lessons or bit-sized infographics to face depression, most youth go through it without even realizing. Due to the rise in depression cases, some hospitals have turned to giving free advice on depression, but this is also manipulated by the patient-hungry hospitals inorder to provide market for their bulky medicine stock.
The changes occuring due to depression have worsened the way people are viewing it. As youths, the risk of being bogged down by friends realizing that you are a depressed youth and the recent advancement in technology through picture and video sharing apps like Facebook and Instagram have left some guys with no other choice but to end their own lives.
If the number of youth commiting is increasing, then that leaves one and only one choice "to look for ways to hack into the weaknesses left by depression".
CAUSES OF DEPRESSION
The main cause is loneliness and feeling left out. This happens for guys who feel complete when they are around others. Life is a team-based fight, but learning to stay lonely is a skill that has mostly been developed by grown ups and very few youths.
Owing to the desire for someone to motivate you each time, you end up developing high levels of stress if no one does so. This in turn affects how you react to different situations. The life at such a point makes you reflect on all your life, criticizing most of the things you did wrong.
Once you are in that trap, you'll feel guilty and as a fundamental rule that all guilt is punished, you become yourself's most ruthless prosecutor.
Depression also affects those who search for perfection. These are people of religion, philosophers (searchers of knowledge), prodigies (guys who want to know everything in life) and guys in the entertainment and social media bracts of life.
When these guys realize that there is no perfection on earth, they get to choose between two things: to continue chasing for perfection or to accept life as it is. An example are the religious guys. The ones who hold their faiths for long are those who accepted that there are rules to follow on earth,but sometimes temptation can grow greater than resistance letting them learn and develop.
Those who push for perfection push themselves with so much belief along the way that once the motivation dies, they'll be as useless as rats in a car company. All their drive in life will go and most of them chock themselves to hell.
Depression lastly attacks guys with a low self esteem. Guys who don't have their own picture of who they are. These are the guys who believe that they are worthless just because someone spat it on them regardless of whether that person gives reasons for his say or not. If we were in a jungle, these would be sheep- the easiest game to gun down. When you look deep into the causes , you see that the reason behind all is desire to have a fixed world , one with peace and unchanging incidents .
