According to Dictionary.com ''depression means aconditionofgeneralemotionaldejectionandwithdrawal; sadnessgreaterandmoreprolongedthanthatwarrantedbyany objectivereason''.
Depression comes from different ways. It can come through rejections,
abandonment, failures, disappointments, inner battles, self-esteem
issues, constant criticisms, bottling things up, comparing your life
with others etc. Depression is something people don't really like
talking about or choose to ignore its presence or sometimes are not
aware of its presence.
Depression is a slow but a very deadly poison. As shown in the picture
above it comes without one noticing its presence and if care is not
taken it gradually consumes a person's life. As a result of this, many
believe that the last result or the best option is to either to take
away their own lives or many begin to have psychological problems. To relief oneself from depression, the best solution
most times is to talk to someone. Talking to someone doesn't just mean
talking to anyone. Talk to someone who cares. Talk to someone who
understands. Talk to someone who will encourage, inspire, motivate and
strengthen you. Cry to God for help...Above all, seek for help.
The truth is, the first step to seeking for help is to talk to someone.
Just talk. Let it all out. You will realise that the more you talk, the
more you fight this slow but deadly poison. The more you talk, the more
you free yourself from it.
Please don't keep things to yourself. Please don't let this slow but
deadly poison overcome your existence or reason for living. Life is
beautiful ,please don't let or allow anything or anyone take away your joy,
laughter, smile, happiness, peace of mind and/or reason to live.
You are more than a conqueror. Choose to live. Choose to kick depression
to hell where it is meant to be. Choose to fight cos in the end, you
will look back, smile and say ''Thank God I didn't give up, now I know
what means and how it feels to win''.

The last things are death, judgment, heaven and hell.
Death is the separation of man's mortal body and immortal soul. It comes to all
men as a result of original sin. It is a temporary state, for at the end of the world, all
men shall rise again to be judged by Christ. Thus the whole man, body and soul, will be
rewarded for the good or evil that he has done, body and soul, in this life.
At the moment of death, each human person is judged by God based on his conduct
in this life, and goes immediately to his reward or punishment.Moreover, at the end of the
world, Jesus Christ will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead. At that
time, God's whole plan for the world shall be revealed, and his mercy and justice
demonstrated.
Heaven is the eternal state of perfect happiness resulting from the face to face
vision of God, which is the reward of those who have served Him in this life.
Hell is the eternal state of torment and despair which awaits those who, in this
life, have freely rejected God and the happiness which He offerse.
Before the end of the world, there will be an intermediate state called purgatory.
There, those who are bound for heaven, but whose love for God is still marred by some
imperfection, undergo a temporary period of purifying suffering. When this purification is
complete, they are fit to enter God's presence and are admitted to the joys of heaven.
