He was very poorly off in India because of the caste system. One day he packed his few things and just walked to Europe through countless countries.
Poverty is the number 1 cause of depression. Cut throat competition leads to depression. It's prevelant in third world countries.And what makes you think that depression is a phenomenon specific only to third world countries? I don't think China should be on your list by the way. If you think China is a third world country you clearly haven't been.

Yes, china is a third world country, there GDP per capita is not high enough, it's full of dirt. It has a long way to go.
It will take china atleast a 100 year to have the west like quality of life.
China may surpass US in terms of economy but it still stands no chance against the western quality of life.
And btw where you live now?#
The rates are higher in west because they are reporting more accurately, and by the way how old are you if I may ask? At what age you immigrated to UK? I am thinking of leaving india too and my reasons are pretty same like yours, I don't like India's discriminatory caste system where people are selected based on what caste they are of. Any place which doesn't has caste / race / look based discrimination is perfect for me. For example china, USA etc.I live in merry 'ol England. Firstly, just wondered more precisely what you meant by 'west like' quality of life as it can mean a few things I guess?
But speaking economically, if you've been to the UK have you been to places like Blackpool and seen the poverty there? Or even Scotland which has been described as a third world country within the United Kingdom that the other constituencies carry around economically, weekend at bernies style. Things are not always as black and white as they might appear from any distant standpoint.
As for China, there is an economic divide. I can't see it closing per se and transforming into a generic widespread middle class like in some of your 'western' countries but they, the upper classses in china that drive the corporations there are "pulling the working classes up" - let me tell you, and this is something i've seen myself - when I was tending to a business matter I got to liase with a Chinese multi,multi millionaire who had made for his thousand strong workforce a 'servant' quarter. This servant quarter was nothing short of a five star hotel, and the quality of life that the staff had, at least in terms of household luxurys could easily put any appartment owners standard in some so called tier one countries to shame. And that is not an anomaly. The billionaire and elites generally do this. Entire towns have been built and "preserved" to move rural chinese communities into them. Not saying China is perfect, far for from it but to tar them with the same brush as places like Nigeria is just ....
Also I have to disagree about your diagnosis of the causes of depression. Poverty can lead to all kinds of strife and can cause anxiety but depression is an affliction caused by excessive sedntarism coupled with abysmal eating habits. Which might help explain why rates are higher in the so called 'west'.
You need to talk to someone about it. You need to vent.Hello guys, i know this is not an health forum but i do know that some of us here, might have passed this phase already.
I'm 26, A graduate of estate valuation in Nigeria.
Graduated with 2:1 which isn't bad compared to other grades.
I graduated in 2015. it's been 5 years now, yet i couldn't land a single job (here in Nigeria, you need to know someone who will recommend you for a job, fortunately i come from a poor family, as such, i don't know any influential person who will give me a letter of recommendation.)
I decided to go Online, probably I'll make some money.
Tried affiliate networks, but seems like Nigerians have been blacklisted by almost all the Networks (tried using Chrome VPN extensions, still without success of getting into ClickBank).
Right now, I feel like I'm a failure as no one respects me in the family anymore (Including my siblings).
Lately, throughout this week, all I've been thinking of, is Taking my own life.
I know it's not the reasonable thing to do, but i feel like i will be relieved of my pains and suffering i'm going through right now.
I'll be Grateful if i could get some advice on how to stop these thoughts going on in my head.
