In June, Jaabir Ramlugon tried to take his own life. He had been suffering from severe depression, although he had not been diagnosed at the time.

Some days beforehand he posted a message on Facebook. “The worst way my depression manifests itself is a gut wrenching feeling of loneliness. I described it on Facebook – I was desperate for someone to hear me; I had kept things to myself for so long,” he says.
