With the increasing number incidents associated with poor mental health, it's become important to find out things that can trigger such and out a stop to them.
It's been found that there is a correlation between mental health and money. It's not surprising though. Even those who are mentally fit can have mild episodes when they are financially constrained.
This week, a man in Lagos, Nigeria chose to commit suicide by jumping into the ocean over false accusations of stealing a large sum of money. He said he found it difficult to even feed and could never pay back what his accusers were threatening him to pay.
Financial problems can lead to depression or anxiety or worsen it in someone who already has the condition. It can also lead to poorer productivity and thus lower earnings, compounding the problem further.
Those who have debts find themselves stressed and unable to focus on simple tasks, or it makes their relationships with other people strained as they become difficult to deal with.
If you or anyone you know has financial problems that are affecting his mental health, it's best to seek to medical care immediately.
