" I believe that there isn't enough attention given to one's mental health in Nigeria . I also believe that in order to achieve ones goals globally one needs to start locally. As a Millennium Fellowship member I would be able to learn skills that would enable me to make substantial improvements to my futurework on SDG 3 and 4 and improve my network. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Go For Life, You Matter
*'Go For Life, You Matter'*
Our mental health is one of the most crucial parts of our lives that must be protected. If it becomes affected, low self-esteem, peer pressure and negative mood swings are birthed, among other things.
Affected mental health can also lead to depression — which gives room for suicidal thoughts, that is, wanting to give up on living.
This is why our initiative urges people to take care of their mental health as well as offer support to those battling depression and harbouring suicidal thoughts.
We are saying to anyone out there who's hurting to ask for help. It is not a sign of weakness to ask for help. It is a sign of strength.
Suicide is never the remedy. Hence, we implore you to always remember that not so many get to choose to live. The life you have is priceless and valuable.
Therefore...Brace up, choose LIFE: Face the pain and keep the hope that you will OVERCOME.
