These are the number of men that die by suicide.
Happy Men's Mental Health Month.
To every man reading this: you are not a burden, and you do not have to carry the weight of the world alone. Speaking up is real strength.
Prof Ogunlade taught me blood and CVS physiology in preclinicals in OAU. One of my favourite lecturers.. he's style of teaching, his gesticulations 😅
He too sabi that ECG thing, they used to send him ECG from overseas to interpret
Children are abducted, teachers are attacked, one reportedly killed and another brutalized, yet political actors still move around celebrating primaries and power games like the country is functioning normally. People expect leadership to at least acknowledge pain publicly. Silence feels cold.
The President spoke today and said nothing about these children. That silence is painful.
And honestly, when a union’s response to violence is mainly “keep going to work and fast,” people will naturally ask what collective bargaining and solidarity are for. A union is supposed to protect workers materially and politically, through pressure, shutdowns, legal action, public outrage, negotiations, strikes if necessary; not only spiritual appeals.
The old labor principle, “an injury to one is an injury to all,” means the attack on one teacher should concern every teacher, because fear spreads through the whole profession. If workers continue as normal after extreme incidents, many members begin to feel abandoned.
This doesn’t just apply to relationships. It applies to friends, family, even your parents.
Start giving your parents a monthly allowance and stop later because you’re broke, they’ll resent you. That gateman you give money to every day, the moment you stop, he’ll resent you too.
A gift is not supposed to be steady or predictable. Once it becomes expected, it stops being a gift and becomes an obligation.
Don’t start what you can’t sustain. Even good intentions become harmful in excess.
If my lovely wife leaves me today for any reasons best known to her.
You won't see me come online to cry.
I did not pay her school fees.
I did not pay her rent while dating her.
I did not buy her phones while dating her.
I did not give her money for hair while dating her.
I did not give her family shishi while dating her.
I did not send her tfare while dating her.
I did not halt my growth or career while dating her and even in marriage.
Everything that I have ever done for her, I did them because she invested in me and sacrificed for me.
And because she's raising responsible children for me and taking good care of me as her husband and father to our children.
So I'll not have any regrets that I wasted money.
Because I didn't put the cart before the horse.
And I'll co-parent with her in peace because she's a good mother.
I don't even mind willing some of my assets to her, even as an ex wife.
When I tell you that I am blessed by God with a wife, I am not joking.
I know who I married, and I cannot deceive myself for public validation.
She's not a perfect woman, but she's a woman that I have embraced her imperfections wholeheartedly.
End.
Here’s a piece of unsolicited advice for Men with money entering relationships:
A lot of your relationships fail because you started with an unsustainable version of you. Sometimes when we love someone, we try to secure that love through too much effort, attention, gifts, or availability too early.
“You can kill a new plant by watering it too much.”
The problem with doing too much too early is that your initial effort becomes the standard. A relationship that starts at 100 has nowhere natural to grow.
When you give too much too early, the relationship skips the stage where you 2 gradually learn to love each other in a realistic way. Your effort becomes your identity in the relationship.
So when you reduce that effort later, it feels like less love to the other person whereas you’re just dealing with life.
When you have money, it’s tempting to do too much too early. But it’s usually a bad idea even if you can afford it.
I completely agree and it's even evidence backed
Exercise-related sudden cardiac death in young people is most commonly from undetected structural or electrical conditions, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, anomalous coronary arteries, or channelopathies like long QT syndrome. Silent until the worst moment.
Pre-participation screening catches these.
I don't know how feasible it is for Nigerian gyms requiring baseline screening before enrollment
"You're a doctor, you should know."
Medicine has 12 specialties, thousands of conditions, and constantly updating research.
No. One. Person. Knows. Everything.
That's why referrals exist. Respect them.
@i_am_justjames@itohan_olat However, liver transplant is usually most beneficial when liver cancer is detected at a very early stage, before it even progresses or metastasize (spreading to other organs)
@i_am_justjames@itohan_olat Exactly,... The liver has that unique ability to regenerate
So if a transplant is done from a living donor, the donated portion in the recipient can grow, while the remaining liver in the donor also enlarges over time.
Guys, if you have a successful marriage, it is grace given to you by God o. It’s not because you know how to do it. You can only do your part to be good. You can’t legislate for the other party. Just do your best to be a good guy and pray for grace.
