I'm incredibly blessed to have so much to be grateful for that even my complaints are a privilege.

@SeverinoTheWolf Receiving letters from the police with the mentioned words even makes it worse.

[Dr. Jackson Shawa @officialshawa]

It's 2026, yet Zambia's Penal Code still uses the words "idiot" and "imbecile" in its legal text, despite the enactment of the 2019 Mental Health Act.

If it's that disabling you need to get professional help, but I can see you work up therapists.

What do you suggest we do with the anxiety doc

[Dr. Jackson Shawa @officialshawa]

No one should fail an exam because of anxiety.

I'm disappointed Shoprite doesn't. People who use TEMU and SHEIN, any comments?

[Dr. Jackson Shawa @officialshawa]

Any platforms where digital gift cards/vouchers can be purchased online and used by someone in Zambia?
Thanks

[Dr. Jackson Shawa @officialshawa]

@RobsonKanyama Okay, thanks. Any stores you know apart from those?
I actually wanted Shoprite, but they don't do it. I want something for mass purchase for different people.

Trust your instincts and do not overcomplicate things by asking yourself lots of questions.

Sometimes, the things you think you would die without, are exactly what’ holding you back. 🤔

This applies to people too.

[Dr. Jackson Shawa @officialshawa]

Also, this is not advice. Learn to strike a balance.

The struggle between YOLO and delayed gratification is real.

Anyways, YOLO.
