Wadau this nation is facing serious and rapid increase in the number of mental disorders. Turbulent times and harsh economic climate isnt helping either. Cases of mental illnesses:suicide, alcohol& drugs misuse, depression..name it all are on a worrying trend. Saddened by cases of adolescent suicide cases being reported.

Almost every family is affected, strange how I thought of posting this today, more like asking for suggestions and how yo assist someone going through depression.
Nimeongea naye mpaka nimeshindwa... Painfully seeing them slip into useless state, yet they don't want help and suggestion, since they feel you're looking down upon them coz you're a bit successful or have a life. So you're forced to pull away to reduce tension and pressure on them.
 
I don't think it's an increase, it just that we're more informed of such cases in this decade. People had it worse economically and socially during saitan surrogate moi's time but not as connected as today
it is disrespectful ...and two, incorrect to say Moi's time was harder than now.

I think you are desperate to validate the two presidencies that latter came from your place of inclination

when i was through the ringer, I took death pills and was admitted to the hospital and rehab for 4 months, luckily i survived but without the benefit of a good memory.

sometimes i forget my name, i cannot communicate properlly but it comes and goes..,i have been training for quite a while but i think i will catch up.

I dont even remember the cause of my depression yoh but i do know that Time changes and every cloud has a silver linen.
You will just have to endure until you feel your head is about to explode.
in due process you will know what maketh strong men is steel hearts.

For me whenever i am about to go down with depression i know.. switch off my phone... and get away from everyone ..and just live a different life for some few days... you wouldnt see me here

Some of the freedoms we enjoy today were not possible during moi's time. It's no secret the guy participated in looting this country and stagnating its development both economic and societal. So yes, whether I like the guy or not, the fact of the matter does not change.

Also, the internet is the great connector. We're now much more aware of things going with people that we don't even know of, instead of relying on the carefully curated news from the state broadcaster. Illnesses and diseases such as cancers and mental health issues, it's not that they did not exist, it's just that we didn't know much about them, or hear about them as often as we do now.

I have a lot of questions and I don't even know where to start.

Jazzman the two presidents after Moi are the worst than him.. if the two were given 24 years to rule we will eat stones

In as much there's better coverage and reporting of incidences of suicide, how often did we hear of teenagers...particularly school going kids committing suicide some 5 or 10 years ago? Its very disheartening.
