Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has shared his thoughts on the link between money, happiness, and depression, saying financial wealth is not always enough to solve emotional struggles.
The film star reacted to a viral post on X that suggested people dealing with depression would feel better if they simply had a large amount of money.
The post claimed that anyone suffering from depression only needed about “20 million naira” to be fine, sparking mixed reactions online.
Responding to the statement, Timini Egbuson disagreed, saying that mental health issues are not always connected to money or financial status.
He explained that even wealthy individuals can still experience depression, stressing that emotional pain goes beyond financial problems.
His comment quickly sparked a wider debate on social media about the real causes of depression.
Many users agreed with him, pointing out that issues such as loss of loved ones, anxiety, trauma, and personal struggles can also lead to depression, regardless of how much money a person has.
However, others argued that financial hardship is still a major cause of depression for many people, insisting that money can solve a large part of life’s stress and pressure.
The discussion continues to trend online as users share divided opinions on whether money truly influences mental health or not.
