Depression in African Homes: When Rejection Feels Like Culture
In many African homes, depression is often seen as weakness, prayerlessness, or even a Western idea. But for millions, it's a daily silent battle.This is my story — growing up in a culture where vulnerability felt like betrayal, and where asking for help was met with judgment or silence.Rejection didn't just come from people, it came from traditions, expectations, and a system that never had space for mental health.If you’ve ever felt unseen, unheard, or dismissed in your pain — this video is for you. You are not alone.💬 Let’s talk in the comments.📌 Like, Share, and Subscribe to help spread awareness and normalize these conversations in our communities.—📢 Resources & Support Lines (Kenya/Africa)Befrienders Kenya: +254 722 178 177Africa Mental Health Foundation: www.amhf.orgMental 360: www.mental360.org
