How To Cope With Depression As A Student
Greetings Hive student connect community.
Today, I will be speaking on the topic how to cope with depression as a student. It's a nice topic to write on, and I would want you to go through it carefully.
When I talk about depression, I mean those things that could divert a student's attention. Believe me, it's not a nice experience, but yet, it could lead to a better life if you're able to cope with it.
I'm a Nigerian student, and I know what other students are going through. I've been depressed, not once, and not twice. But how I managed to cope with it, remains a mystery to me.
A lot of students are depressed because of a lack of funding, especially those who are self-sponsored. Believe me, it's not easy to sponsor yourself in school.
This could cause depression. Especially when you're told the portal would be closed, I can relate.
Aside from funding, failures in exams could result in depression.
As a student, you're not expected to be failing all your courses. But no matter how people talk about this, it keeps occurring. Sometimes I feel bad for them.
Some struggled to pass a certain course till their final year, but they kept failing. It's not their fault. Maybe they were forced to do that.
This kind of depression could make someone commit suicide, because they believe they can't make it anymore.
Believe me, these are terrible experiences that lead to depression.
But you could cope with it, and as time goes on it would become your history.
Never let depression weigh you down; it didn't come to destroy you or make you feel inferior, but it came to strengthen you, so you could face the future.
Thank you for stopping by.
I remain @joyben.
