[24/02, 9:11 pm] Ameeer: Welcome, as our session is about to begin
[24/02, 9:11 pm] Ameeer: The audience should please indicate their presence with an emoji😎
[24/02, 9:17 pm] Ameeer: Okay thank you all
[24/02, 9:17 pm] Ameeer: Let's watch
[24/02, 9:18 pm] Ameeer: @⁨Poet Sa'eed⁩ "Saeed Muhammad" who is the man behind this name?
[24/02, 9:21 pm] Poet Sa'eed: Behind this name is calm, introvert and indoor who works as a graphic and UI/UX designer. Sa'eed loves falling in and out of love, he enjoy writing on grief and depression.
[24/02, 9:23 pm] Ameeer: No wonder the atmosphere felt heavy in ur presence😂

Oh sorry, we r on air😎
[24/02, 9:24 pm] Ameeer: So tell me Saeed, how did you find yourself Writing...and why grief and depression?
[24/02, 9:27 pm] Poet Sa'eed: I started writing when i was in secondary school, and I choose to write on grief and depression because I was once a depressed person who passed through some series phases of therapy and alhamdulillah I am glad I did.
[24/02, 9:29 pm] Ameeer: MashaAllah, Alhamdulillah.
[24/02, 9:29 pm] Ameeer: That being said. Do you mind if we talk about depression here and now?
[24/02, 9:30 pm] Poet Sa'eed: Let's talk about anything.
[24/02, 9:30 pm] Ameeer: Okay then
[24/02, 9:31 pm] Ameeer: From your experience so far, how would you define depression and how does one get to know that they are suffering From depression disorder?
[24/02, 9:37 pm] Poet Sa'eed: When you started to see suicide as a normal thing or a door to escape your own reality, when you only know happiness by word and not by experience. Depression comes in many forms: you will begin to isolate yourself, talk-less and harm yourself more. 

In Nigeria (esp. in our local communities) it's always hard to tell whether a person is depressed or not but I can say most of those shiru-shiru pikins are depressed from within.
[24/02, 9:39 pm] Ameeer: 🥺🥺🥺 it's hard considering most of our people do not even believe in depression
[24/02, 9:40 pm] Ameeer: A quick fun questions:

If there are three depressed people in Watpadians who would those people be?
[24/02, 9:42 pm] Poet Sa'eed: @⁨Amirah⁩, @aleeya (she left) and myself.
[24/02, 9:44 pm] Ameeer: We would go to the love part of the interview, but I believe the issue of depression is a wide and sensitive one
[24/02, 9:44 pm] Ameeer: In a few steps, how do you do you fight depression?
[24/02, 9:46 pm] Poet Sa'eed: Through loving, writing, and volunteering in social activities—advocacy, activism
[24/02, 9:46 pm] Poet Sa'eed: And taking antidepressants
[24/02, 9:49 pm] Ameeer: People who often post memes? Which kind of depression do u think they have😂
[24/02, 9:52 pm] Poet Sa'eed: Huh— they might or might not be depressed. Most are just catching cruise.
[24/02, 9:53 pm] Ameeer: I know you are busy, but please ship on the fanta🥂
[24/02, 9:53 pm] Ameeer: Hello audience, u have five minutes to drop it questions, related to the discussion so far.

[24/02, 10:01 pm] Ameeer: @⁨Poet Sa'eed⁩ let's continue then
[24/02, 10:02 pm] Poet Sa'eed: Okay sir
[24/02, 10:03 pm] Ameeer: @⁨Poet Sa'eed⁩ what is that one bad thing u did as a child that uptil today no one knows it was u?😂
[24/02, 10:03 pm] Poet Sorceress: So @⁨Poet Sa'eed⁩ what exactly do you think is the cause of depression
[24/02, 10:04 pm] Poet Sa'eed: I used to ran away from school.
[24/02, 10:05 pm] Ameeer: 😂😂and go to where exactly?
[24/02, 10:06 pm] Poet Sa'eed: Thank you @⁨Poet Sorceress⁩ for asking. Loneliness, trauma, abuse, Gene, all leads one to depression even though there are other thousand causes.
[24/02, 10:09 pm] Ameeer: U went into a cafe and met a stranger sitting alone @⁨Poet Sorceress⁩ is ur stranger. She seems to be the hard to get type but u r hell bent on winning her over. Without using lines of poetry...🥂 let's see how u will do it
[24/02, 10:09 pm] Poet Sorceress: I don't know if I can ask another question☺️☺️@⁨Ameeer⁩
[24/02, 10:09 pm] Ameeer: @⁨Poet Sorceress⁩ u can respond, remember u r hard to get
[24/02, 10:09 pm] Ameeer: U have four mins to get her on ur side
[24/02, 10:09 pm] Ameeer: @⁨Poet Sa'eed⁩
[24/02, 10:12 pm] Poet Sa'eed: Wow! Hate most times turns into love. I will begin by spilling something over her dress— she will shout and hate and I will take it from there.
[24/02, 10:14 pm] Ameeer: Sure that's the right move?😂😂😂😂😂😂 @⁨Poet Sorceress⁩
[24/02, 10:14 pm] Poet Sorceress: Ruining my dress is a very bad idea 
For I don't think I can listen to a clumsy brat
[24/02, 10:14 pm] Poet Sorceress: So that isn't going to work
[24/02, 10:15 pm] Poet Sa'eed: It will work not exactly on that spot, but when we meet next for I surely know that you will not forget my face.
[24/02, 10:16 pm] Poet Sa'eed: I don't even think I can survive without poetry. @⁨Poet Sorceress⁩ is toastable but with poetry.
[24/02, 10:17 pm] Poet Sorceress: Whoa🤣🤣
Why just give up easily
[24/02, 10:18 pm] Poet Sa'eed: I am not giving up, but some things are better left unsaid
[24/02, 10:19 pm] Ameeer: 😂so u don't even have a pickup line?😌
[24/02, 10:19 pm] Poet Sa'eed: I thought you meant I should not make use of that
[24/02, 10:20 pm] Ameeer: I only siezed ur poetry
[24/02, 10:21 pm] Poet Sa'eed: @⁨Poet Sorceress⁩ Do you have a map? I keep getting lost in your eyes.
[24/02, 10:24 pm] Poet Sorceress: Do I look like a path
For u to think of a map☺️
[24/02, 10:25 pm] Ameeer: 😂😂⚡ alright it's okay
[24/02, 10:27 pm] Poet Sa'eed: Even if you are a path, you must be the path to Jannah
[24/02, 10:27 pm] Ameeer: After standing in front of her and toasting for 10 mins, she told u that u trousers zip is open, how would you escape the embarrassment? @⁨Poet Sa'eed⁩ 😂
[24/02, 10:28 pm] Poet Sa'eed: @⁨Poet Sorceress⁩ is not a girl that you can easily fool, I would have to accept the fact and move on— and I don't easily get embarrassed
[24/02, 10:29 pm] Ameeer: 😂😂😂 alright then
[24/02, 10:29 pm] Ameeer: I believe u have dived into the nigh enough
[24/02, 10:29 pm] Ameeer: So I would draw the curtain
[24/02, 10:30 pm] Ameeer: But before then
[24/02, 10:30 pm] Ameeer: The floor is open for comments and questions once again
[24/02, 10:32 pm] Ameeer: @⁨Poet Sa'eed⁩ what will you say to people who are depressed and scared to confront it?😌
[24/02, 10:33 pm] Poet Sorceress: @⁨Poet Sa'eed⁩ to toast a girl like me in a cafe let me tell you the secret😁😁

Come over 
Tell me may I sit you please maam
But only if you don't mind.
Just respect and charisma will capture my attention☺️☺️☺️

And my question is 
You said Gene can cause depression how is that possible??
[24/02, 10:35 pm] Eemaaa: @⁨Poet Sa'eed⁩ what makes you genuinely happy aside writing and your kind of work and dedications
[24/02, 10:36 pm] Poet Sa'eed: I will try that when we meet next in your DM. 

Sometimes people are depress not because of anything but family history. If in their family there were a lot of people that passed through depression then there are chances that one can be depress because of that history—just like cancer, diabetes, sickle cell etc
[24/02, 10:37 pm] Poet Sa'eed: When I get a task done! I love working.
[24/02, 10:38 pm] Eemaaa: Okay
[24/02, 10:38 pm] Poet Sorceress: Noted💫💫
[24/02, 10:42 pm] Ameeer: @⁨Poet Sa'eed⁩ thank you for your time🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🥂
[24/02, 10:43 pm] Poet Sa'eed: The pleasure is mine.
[24/02, 10:43 pm] Ameeer: @⁨Eemaaa⁩ will drive u home
[24/02, 10:43 pm] Ameeer: @⁨Poet Sorceress⁩ go back inside the house
[24/02, 10:44 pm] Ameeer: @⁨El Abdool⁩ please carry his takeaway to the car
