<p>I watch a lot of foreign movies so I know people can be depressed or homesick and get treated for it. Also some people when under alot of pressure suffer from panic attack and take medications to cope whenever the have an "episode".</p><p>But on this side the world 🌍 we hear things like: depression is a state of mind,it's not real,it's all in your head,an African mother even went as far as saying her son who attempted suicide while overseas did so not because he was depressed but because he hasn't been eating well. So she said all would be well if she feeds him.So,the questions behind this are ?</p><p>🖋️ Is depression just a state of mind</p><p>🖋️Is it medically recognized as a condition</p><p> 🖋️ What are the factors behind Africans refusing to accept or come to terms to the fact that "depression" is real</p>
