Today, I logged on Facebook to check the profile of Chukwuemeka Akachi, the 400 level student of UNN who committed suicide. Maybe I shouldn’t have, the pain is too much to bear. I checked the activities on his profile. The words, the pictures, the comments, the links, I checked until I decided it was enough. He wrote frightening words, shared fearsome pictures, almost every activity on his timeline raised an alarm. The boy was slowly dying. The growing menace of depression was ripe. It didn’t start now. He asked for help in 2017 for a therapist, I don’t know how it turned out. He submitted an entry for a literature contest in 2018 where he wrote about his suicidal thoughts. He tagged it “16 notes on how to end a life.” The confusion in him was jamming, but it seemed no one could treat it as urgent, after all, we all have our different battles. People, Depression is real. The deep questions we ask ourselves sometimes mess up with our minds. “Who am I?” “What is my life about?” “How do I find fulfillment?” “What is my tomorrow going to be?” Etc. A lot of these countless questions have streamed through my mind and there were times I almost lost my mind. Today, if all you did is survive, then I’m super proud of you! No unnecessary pressure again. Thank you @mariechidi for being an angel ❤️ #yvonnetalks #depressionhelp #live #depressionisreal

Note to self: Just like the game of darts, you need FOCUS to succeed in life. Focus on your journey. Focus on your path. Focus on whatever makes you unique. Focus on whatever you choose. Just Focus! #yvonnetalks #nigeriablogger #focus #game #life #inspiration #youtubevlogger

Hello people, What does it mean to be authentic in the age of social media where almost everyone is interested in building a personal brand?

If you find me on my journey of self discovery, don’t attempt to tag me by the actions you ever see me display. Don’t label me by my mistakes or compose lyrics to sing about my confusion. We’re all on this journey. Own your journey while I own mine. Walk on your path while I walk on mine. Don’t define me.

This journey, my journey is a story. Even though I have the idea of a perfect ride, I’m learning to embrace the imperfections. Maybe, there isn’t a perfect ride. We learn from our experiences and these lessons are ours to guide us. With this in mind, I started Dear Graduate. With this,other individuals can learn while I learn too. We’re on the journey together although, I understand the differences in our journeys. My career is another aspect of my life that will be narrated in the first person point of view when I’m eventually ready. Wait for it! Why am I saying all of these words? I have a new post on my blog (www.yvonneokoro.org). I shared “Five pieces of advice for every undergraduate and fresh graduate.” Read post by clicking on the link in my bio. These are pieces of advice I give myself on this career ride. I’ve made some good career choices and some bad ones. Not withstanding, I’m still learning. Read the post. Share and comment. #yvonnetalks #careerblogger #bloggerlife #career #careeradvice #learning

Be you! #yvonnetalks #evidenttruth #beyou #inspire

Find yourself. The question: “did you lose yourself?” I’ve realized that I’m the kind of person who constantly needs to check on myself, my sanity and state of mind. I’m the kind of person who needs to continually stay updated about who I’m becoming else I lose my sense of self. It’s just who I am, everyone is who they are. Who are you? #yvonnetalks #nigerianblogger #heartthoughts #beyou

CAREER RUT If you’re currently stuck in your career, there’re countless other persons who are in the same boat as you are. In a job market saturated with unemployed graduates, people who are dissatisfied with their jobs sometimes never resign; they persevere. Career ruts are easy to spot. It renders you unmotivated, unappreciated, or just plain unhappy. Whenever I experience a career rut, these are five ways I break out. I used to believe that the first way to break out of any career rut is to immediately quit my job, but I’ve discovered a fresh direction to handle this challenge.
