Hello lovely people happy Sunday.
Guys I need your advice. I'm the type to always mind my business but this has been bothering me.

My neighbour has been indoors for 1 week and it's unlike him.
And when I went to knock on his door this morning I heard him crying. I'm confused.

Omg, that sounds like someone going through a depressing situation but can't seem to confide in anyone. Please, try as much as possible to speak kind words to him from outside and if it falls, try to contact the caretaker. I hope he doesn't self-harm.

Nice photo, by the way.

Thank you dear.
He is fine now.

Alright! That's good to hear.

Happy Sunday 💝, I hope everything is fine with your neighbor. A good gesture from you.

I don't know. I'm still contemplating on whether to check or not. I don't know if invading his privacy. But I'm worried at the same time. For a man to be crying it must be really something serious.

First of all, your effort to check on him, even when it's an uncomfortable thing for you to do is commendable. It's clear he's going through something which you wouldn't have known had you not made that kind gesture...

Well I still haven't checked up on him.
I'm still contemplating but I'm sure he is not okay.
Guess I will go back and check up properly.
Thank you ☺️

Oh, okay then.
Please do check on him properly.

To address the issue, I'd suggest you try to put some persistence. He's currently in a dangerous state, God forbid but you can't tell what action will be next. Try to persist and reason with him to open up. You can do that with other neighbours. I believe people should have some humanity at least. Or even with close friends, if you need that help. Most importantly, if you know someone close to him, friends or loved ones, try to reach them; let them know what's going on, and put heads and hands together to help that neighbour. Hope this helps.

I don't know anyone o.
Like I said I just watch and observe in the compound. And from my observation was how I could tell he hasn't come out for days. ☹️ But I will try and ask.

Chaii. If you had known someone it could have helped more and be easier for you too, at least. Nevertheless, you you can, Zali the bee.
Good observation though. Okay, try and do that then.

Alright thank you 😌

You're welcome.
Let's know how it went.

I went back and he opened up to me 😔
He almost drank snipper because he couldn't get a job.

What? Thank God for your intervention. He must have been really frustrated. How's he doing though?

He is fine jare I decided to stay with him for a while before leaving.

That's nice of you. Well done.

Will that even solve anything.
Nawa o.

What's that?

I mean taking snipper na. It won't solve the problem.

Oh, okay. Sure, it won't.

Wishing you a happy weekend.

You too

He didn't respond when you knocked on his door?
The fact that you stepped out to check on him already shows how caring you are. I hope he opens up to you or gets through with whatever life had thrown at him 🫂.

I was about knocking when I heard him crying I went back.
So after posting here I decided to go back and he opened the door.
I saw sniper one Conner of the room this guy was about to end his life because he couldn't get a job.

OmG! 😨
You know I'm anything but surprised. Life is so so tough on its own and living in this terrible country of ours? Jobless and yet having loads of responsibilities and expectations on your shoulder??
Honestly, I won't dare blame him. But still, I'll always be against suicide. It's never the best option.

But in everything, I'm very much glad you have your neighbour at heart so much to notice his absence. That says a lot!

I pray he gains hope that will rid his mind of all suicidal thoughts 🙏♥️🌹.

Amen o.😌

🥺🙏

Please do check up on him.
Everyone is going through a lot recently

I already did o.
I use to heard of people committing suicide this one I witnessed it today he almost drank snipper. Will that even solve the problem.😔

I think he's in trouble, u should call the cops

Thank you he is fine now.😊

Omo...
This isn't you pokenosing just so you know... You're human and it is right of you to do just that. I'm glad you already took the step to knock, hopefully he should open up. Also, I would suggest you call or message him if you have his contact, or better still find a means

A means of communicating with him, maybe if you know anyone close to him or even call out to him via the window or so... Might sound somehow, I'm just talking from experience though. You never know what exactly he's going through, just so he wouldn't hurt himself.

I checked up on him yesterday and I found out he is just depressed because of unemployment. He almost drank snipper sef. But he is fine now.

Eiii ...
Thank God for your quick intervention. Omo enh, this country is a mess. Nigeria can be so frustrating 😭

Yes o. It is well

Amen 🙏🥺

I don't know anything about the guy. He is just someone I see everyday, like he usually lively and everywhere. You know does set of people sha.

So his absence was what caught my attention and his car has been on the same spot throughout.

Ah...
That's a lot. Obviously something is definitely wrong with him. I will suggest you try again this morning. Or if you have some other neighbors you can tell what you noticed

Alright

Yea

Welp, I don't really think there is anything wrong with asking him what the matter was. Its humane. Just reach out, and he will probably open up to you

Good to know he is fine. Alléluia
