Nigerian man named Toyyib Adewale Adelodun has used his life to encourage the youths with his X platform. The young man explained the reason why people get depressed seeing their mates move faster than them and how his first 30 years never made sense cause things was slow and difficult. Today he’s based in the UK and successful.

Read his post below as shared on the X platform:

“One of the main cause of depression in young people is the feeling that your mates are doing better than you, and you have been left behind. The first 30 years of my life didn’t make a lot of sense.

My mates were doing Masters/Phd, and I was just starting a degree programme after several challenges. It was not because I was not smart(I was the best student all through Primary School) but things happen in life that can change your trajectory.

Money, Environment, Lack of opportunities. You have to accept facts as they are. You are not here to compete but live your life on your own terms. Always remember that everyone has their own time. Remember how far you have come. Be proud of yourself. Also, no matter how bad you think things are, you would be surprised you are a prayer point for some people.

This is where gratitude comes in. When I was in the hospital for 5 months, I just wanted to get out. That was my only prayer.

The best part of your life is yet to come, be patient. Delay is not Denial. God will bless you. Your efforts will not be in vain”. ❤️🙏
