Napaul✞@Napaul_·“The truth is people who commit suicide must have tried many ways to come out of depression, but can’t find none. And the best alternative way that can end the suffering is suicide. But as my sister will always tell me; just keep on fighting. Na who give up fuck up.”
Small girl big God @TheOnlyKemi·Replying to @Napaul_Eeryone is fighting depression lowkey.. Noone is totally happy nor have it all. Life itself is a depress world. find ways to make yourself happy at that time of sorrow, personally I talk to God, cook and come on twitter. Twitter has and is still helping me overcome depression.
Zaddy @YemiDiji·We all are emotional right now about the demise of Dele. By tomorrow, y’all go back to trolling & bullying everyone on & offline not minding their mental health all in the name of savagery for few likes & RTs. Many are battling depression. Be kind. RIP Dele.
