Dearest Suicide III: Mental Health x Emotional Crisis x Depression
At the beginning of this intriguing, riveting, thought-provoking and soul-tearing series set in the year 2015 AD, PaGidi was ready to commit suicide after having seven carry over courses and suffering a heartbreak. Now in its third installment, PaGidi gives us a feel of the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 experience by taking us into the lives of great footballers…who died by suicide…a subject hardly talked about in the world of football.
The author doesn’t stop there, as he further discusses the controversies surrounding the unaffectionate affair between him and his girlfriend; this time in her raw, expressive and vulnerable letters written to him during his NYSC camp. Unable to get a response from him, she takes a decision only few would have blamed her for.
What did she do?
Set in a purely Nigerian environment with a chronological plot and language the teenagers – who are increasingly facing this experience – and young adult will relate to, Dearest Suicide mirrors the thin-yet-sensitive realities that makes one wonder what he or she is to do when your significant other isn’t in love with you, while exploring the many dark lines of mental health, emotional crisis, substance abuse, and depression, in a way that will challenge the core of your values, alter your perspectives about life, and remind you that you are not alone in this mess.
*******************************************************
Suicide has always been categorised as a high level stigma/danger, embedded with all forms of fear and disapproval, without necessarily giving people the room to be well educated and enlightened about the dire problems people face as to “When Suicide Becomes the Healing You Need” or why “Sometimes, DEATH Becomes The Only Option”.
Suicide is adjudged to be the tenth leading cause of death in the world, and the second leading cause of death amongst teenagers and young adults combined. According to the World Health Organization, approximately one million people die each year from suicide and suicide related causes, resulting in about one death by suicide every eleven minutes globally. With the same statistics narrowing it down to at least one person committing suicide every 40 seconds, as at year 2020.
In Nigeria in particular, the clusters of suicidal cases amongst several teenagers, youths, and few concerning adult like the Osapa London tragedy, raises awareness to the fact that many are experiencing emotional trauma, family dysfunction, relationship crisis, mental disorder (amongst others), and are in dire need of help.
But sadly, we address issues from the roof, not the root. Most especially when it comes to matters of having someone to talk to, someone to listen to us, therapy, and everything that has to do with suicide and mental health conversations.
It is to this purpose that I am introducing you to DEAREST SUICIDE BOOK III...Mental Health x Emotional Crisis x Depression.
*******************************************************
SO, WHAT IS IT FOR ME IN THIS BOOK??
Dearest Suicide is a coming-of-age, controversial, and evergreen book that is a must-read for every teenager, youth, and adult of all ages, class, and status. The book covers different areas and scope of the average adolescent and contemporary adult, from relationship, to sex, academics, religion, emotions, family life, work life, and breakups (breakfast). This is a book that should be in every school and on every book shelf, as it reveals deep-seated truths and sick realities the society continuously shies away from, frowns at, and fails to talk about, when it comes to suicide.
There is vast amount of information from the book which can be applied to a number of human situations, not just suicide, and help people who have been hurting a long time, struggling with people who hurt them, or who are currently hurting.
With the astronomical rate at which suicidal deaths has increased, the timing of such a well-written-sensitive-yet-controversial subject could not be more perfect. It will show you how great individuals, important celebrities and amiable personalities across the globe have either taken or attempted to take their lives, in view of the harsh difficulties and telling situations travailing their human existence; giving you an insight and knowledge into understanding each person’s story and having the right conversations in specific places.
THIS IS THE BEST THING YOU’LL WANT TO READ GOING INTO THE CHRISTMAS AND FESTIVE SEASON, as you are about to experience all shades of twists, turns, intrigues, suspense, anguish, tension, crisis, counter plots, and epic clashes in a story with several parts: a depressive-romantic thriller, a teenage crisis, a family rollercoaster, a self-help manual, and a real-time relationship saga, amongst other telling, engaging, scourging, and provoking tales.
Dearest Suicide will make you laugh, cry, annoyed, and perplexed; making you ask questions in dumbfounding rhetoric and at some point, leaving you to scream out loud in anger… as you critically analyze things for yourself, while gaining broader insight and view into a problem that’ll make you feel like your life is in the story.
The book carries deep secrets, collects undocumented tragedies from extensive research, uncovers hidden mysteries, and breaks down age-long myths about the subject of suicide. You are about to experience twists, turns, intrigues, suspense, anguish, tension, crises, counter plots, and epic clashes, in this story with several parts: a depressive-romantic thriller, a teenage crisis, a family roller coaster, a self-help manual, and a real-time relationship saga, amongst other telling, engaging, scourging, and provoking tales.
The author, PaGidi, is very detailed, precise refreshingly transparent, and direct, holding nothing back in this moving story, which has changed the minds and perspectives of many since the May 12 edition (When Suicide Becomes the Healing You Need) was published.
And as you progress in each chapter, you will be conditioned to refer back to his disclaimer and warm advice time and time again.
THIS ISN’T A FICTION. THIS IS REALITY!
It’s time to begin those talks and conversations about suicide and stop the myths, stigmas, and African mentalities surrounding Suicide.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING CONCERNING DEAREST SUICIDE III…
SALLY KENNETH DADZIE | Author of Roses Aren’t Red, Stranger In Lagos
When I first saw the title of this book by PaGidi, I was curious. At the same time, I judged it by its title. For obvious reasons, of course. But when I got a copy and began to read the poems, I was pleasantly intrigued.
BARNABAS JNR (HazyPoet) | Political Science Student, Bauchi State University; Poet
I've deciphered the purpose-filled pages of this evergreen book fate has blessed me, (and) to say it's just a book will be a gross understatement. It is an all-time map to lost souls trying to find the path to purpose again.
It gives a window into the author’s soul where insightful perspectives about contemporary issues that have been ravaging tremendously and with little or no glimpse of the end are conceived. It also discerns how Parents, religion, society etc, flames the fires of suicidal thoughts in suicide victims.
TOCHUKWU PRECIOUS EZE (DI MADWRITER) | Author of Tobé, Adaeze, Mirror; Founder, Mental Health
Dearest Suicide (Book 2) leaves a taste in your mind. It’s sad at one point, funny at another, hopeful, depressing, familiar, but what it is not is bland. It’s almost impossible to read through it all and not have a part that strikes and holds you transfixed for a while.
For me, it was the emails sent by his girlfriend while he was at the NYSC orientation camp. They felt like windows into their lives, into their relationship. I could not help but wonder if it ever crossed her mind, as she wrote those emails, that they would be out one day. Obviously not. They were born out of sheer affection. Yet, without intending to, she was telling her sad love story, so convincingly well that we end up buying it. And we fantasize about what could have been if he had simply checked his email.
ERASTUS ADEKUNLE | Writer; Feminist
Gosh! PaGidi, how do you get to do this every time? Wrenching my heart in pieces with every letter, every word, every description and more. You're amazing. Personally, and in the inks.
To be frank, I haven't met a writer like you. And I'm really serious. There's just a way you write, there's something about how you style your words and I just feel like I'm in your mind.
Every time I read from you, I feel like I'm sipping from life's unbridled river of wisdom and inspiration. I'm damn in love with your writing. It's crazy. You make me damn emotional!
ENWEREM CHUKWUKA | Author of Godfathers
PaGidi has a unique writing style, that is the first thing you notice as you tear through his confession: Dearest Suicide. I enjoy reading none-conventional authors and that is what he is. Not only does he tear bravely through the rules, he told his story with coherent enthusiasm. His poetic-esque narrative style makes for an easy, interesting and quick reading as he takes you along on his personal journey through adulthood.
DR. OREOFE WILLIAMS | President, OREOFE FILMS; Arch mentor, City of Talents Worldwide
You are a fantastic writer and as a literary fellow myself, I am extremely proud of your contributions to humanities. Your art is bold and unapologetically satirical. You don't actually write, you craft. And crafting is what makes a great writer. Perhaps this could be published, who knows? It also could be a collection.
ELAIGWU PHILGRACE | Legal Practitioner
This is one way to relax from the whole seemingly bedlam going on in the country. PaGidi is an intentional writer, picks every word and phrase purposefully. This guy is real, especially in a world where people hide their downsides.
CHRISTINE ADEKUNLE | UI/UX Designer
I started reading your book and it got to a point I just had to drop the book and think. 80% of youths living in Nigeria has contemplated or entertained the thought of suicide in one way or the other. The book showed what it's like to be a student in an institution situated in Nigeria, to be in a one-sided love relationship, life after school and what it's like to face difficulties that's bent on slowing you down. Love showed you shege and damn you took your time to express it. It must have hurt really bad. I was thinking it was going to be a very serious book but it was surprising that I laughed when I read some part.
