Thank you Manuela, mine wasn't depression, it was fatigue. Nkola nyo I run a business that needs me thees full time, I gat this 4 Yr old who is baby class, she needs my time, I never used to cook for her, she once confessed at my workplace that she is tired of eating chapats.....ever since I started following you ladies nekola omulimi. I schedule and it's working out for me and my husband. One of my routines is never dirty utensils in my sink. Am loving life without a maid. Thank u ladies, vicky from sonde

As someone who works in mental health I must say just because it's not physically, it's easily ignored and yet mental health is the worst. As I got older I also stopped wishing to be like people who seemed happy 24/7 or had their lives sooooo together especially these celebrities we tend to idolize. People are out here struggling and still have to put on a face in order to get on with life. I've seen happy people, rich people take their lives just like that. Mental health is real. Manuela, I'm so sorry you had to experience that. Depression puts one in such an isolated sad place. We celebrate healing at every stage.

I find bump love episodes intellectually stimulating and spiritually motivating. May you find even high levels of fulfillment in your life Manuela. You ladies are setting a very high standard for many generations to come 👏

Viola, very proud of you - how brave putting yourself out there. Thank you. Your baby is a purpose. Our Angel. An Angel in heaven. Continue to suround yourself and family of him. His blessings and love is left through your story. You have touched lives worldwide. Love you. Keep going - Lisa. Thank you too for hosting - Yes, someone said in the comments that you'll be a great platform - I concor. Just seen your page today and subscribed ❤

I know Manuela was simply telling her story so am not holding it against her but I hope her saying that she didn't want to end up in Butabika hospital does not discourage someone who actually needs professional help to deal with depression from going to seek for it. Butabika hospital is not only for mad people like most of us think. Mental illness like depression are normal diseases and the doctors that help treat them are in mental hospitals. Sometimes God uses tablets and medical interventions to get people out of this dark hole. So mama who is dealing with depression, if you need medical help....please go get help...don't let the stigma surrounding Butabika hospital or any other mental health institution stop you. Thank you Manuela for sharing.

So relatable! Gaining the energy to resolve usually toughens the situation. Everyone goes through some kind of depression at some time in their lives. Thank you for sharing Manuela, you have certainly reached out!

hello bump love,am a 20yr old,married but I've been living a disorganised life from the time I knew the world to the day i watched this,I've always felt dead,lost friends, felt empty,work but I don't kno where my money goes,life has always been up side yet I had to mask it,today I woke up after watching this episode,I pray that I get there coz life can really stress,much as I need more lessons on how to plan for my life.please do a video for us can't afford to come

Oh oh oh how real! I’ve never seen Manuela this real, raw and vulnerable. The authenticity makes me like you more. Thanks for sharing your life with us to learn from. I should attend that event. Thanks Bump Love for the story time concept. We love it.😊 Really loved Pumla’s too.❤

Wow, this was so raw! Thanks for the vulnerability, Manuela! Mr. Mulondo, respect is all I can say! He is the one I thought was sanguine Rosette I like the transition to pink, it suits you, Ladies thank you for showing the Mulondos love in that season, she said it! I would have been AWOL, emotions are burdensome to me! I saw Pumla feeling some kind of way about the hair comment, I am glad she brought it up, a sign that your relationship is solid! Am glad, you mentioned prayer was a way out! Many people are trying to negate the power of prayer in the fight for mental health

Dear Manuel, You have shared from your heart. I can easily relate to my current situation. It is your sharing that has help me understand that I may possibly be going through a depression without knowing. I hope that I can recover. Love from S.Korea

I never get enough of the conversations on bump love. The conversations on the different spheres of life are sooooo insightful!! God bless you all

Am all here crying throughout the episode 😭😭😭 thank you for letting out your vulnerability. I love you Manuela. You have inspired me sooo much! I hope I will become a better woman when I grow up because of your! May God bless you❤️🙏

I have binged like 6 hours of your show!! Thank you for doing this!!!

Your Husband is so supportive , its good to have someone on your side who handles you with such love in a situation when you are down

This is amazing. Thank you for sharing your story Manuela. Rosette...you did a good job, moderating!

Thank you for sharing Manuela. Depression is real, I'm glad you overcame it. I keep procrastinating on buying that Meal Plan of yours. One of these days I will. Love how you've worked through organising the different aspects of your life.

Jeeeeez you have described exactly what i went through in 2017-18...just the will to live and get up was gone and the Grace of God lifted me

Manuela, thank you for sharing your story. Got me teary... Just goes to prove once again that 'Every cloud has a silver lining'.

Listening to this episode was so refreshing. I honestly relate to Manuela's situation where it feels like I've been a dead woman walking for a while... Listening to how she has overcome and ended up making multiple streams of income and finding pure joy again. That's been my prayer and will continue to be. Thank you ladies for your Yea, you are unknowingly liberating so many of us ❤

Its after listening to this story that i get to understand that i was depressed for a period of two years....thank you God for healing me

Wholesome as always. You guys never make an episode that doesn't have something for someone to pick out. Blessed minds. 👏👏👏👏👏

I have re watched this episode. I relate so much with Manuela's story. I literally went through the same thing almost recently. And it I was not attending to school, and staying home giving excuses day on day. Until we had a test that "gave me" then I just had to fake it until i make it. But this has been so insightful.

I must confess its what i have heen thru and still. I think its anxiety with me plus being a stay home mum. I stopped working and the reality of not earning is crushing me left, right and centre. Its a very sad feeling a feeling of helplessness. Am seeking for help

Have been following bump love for like 3 weeks , i feel like i know you guys in person , i feel like am part you , i treat myself like your sister , you are so motivating, transforming a lot of us spiritually , mentally emotionally and physically, bump love 😍, am one of you , may the Almight God keep raising you in wisdom, amen.

Am obsessed with you ladies... Always learning something. Manuela couldn't even hold back the tears... Dark days.... Now I realize am always in some sort of depression every once in a while

I always look at Manuela and be like I want to be like this woman,I just love everything about her and now I realize it's a process wow, I love you Manuela 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Thanks Manuela for sharing. I have also just realized that brokness is a serious cause of depression. Sometime back my workplace wasn't doing well, so my salary was cut 3/4 way, it was fine for a few months, until it got to me. I got so broke, people see you going to work but you have no monetary value, it took a while, hubby didn't get it, I kept telling some of my friends but they could barely help. Thankful to God I went through it, but like you said it's such a dark time.

Thank you Manuela for sharing your experience of Depression. I have learnt a lot from it. May the good Lord continue to bless your marriage🙏

Thank you for your candor, and openness Manuela. Thank you for sharing your mental health journey. I think that you should have a longer and more substantive conversation about mental health in one of your episodes. Cheering you on from a far.

This! Thank you for sharing your story and putting yourself out there in such a raw and vulnerable way. This has absolutely blessed me!

Thank you Manuela for sharing so deep. You have made me cry in public because I can relate. I have learnt to not judge when people go quiet and be more supportive

I discovered your channel about 2 weeks ago and I have been binge watching since then. I love you ladies and really inspiring story from Manuela. Keep up the good work.

Thank you Manuela. I have been in and out of depression for quite some time and av learnt alot from your story today. Bump love is always very insightful

I’m grateful for bump love. Thanks Manuela for sharing. I needed this🙏 Of late been going through the same, forgetting important things in my life, being so sad and I don’t even know the exact reason, literally living in the dark, while I watched this I now feel I need to get out of this before it worsens. Thank you bump love. Watching from South Sudan.

Its not easy being this raw and vulnerable...........life in depression is real and deep. Thank you Manuela, youre a good person and a good mentor

I know it's soo late but I had to go thru such a state in school. And how demanding A level is. But now that the feeling is back I thank God I've seen this

Glad to hear about temperaments. It is something we must all learn and teach children. Teachers too must know. It helps us tolerate each other but also work on the weaknesses

Oh Manuela love! Thank you for sharing with us! There is something about God,when he wants you for a purpose and you seem busy,he will take you there,by hook or crook! See how he sent you to Nineveh through pain! Blessings follow you... thank you ladies!

I just realized that I have been depressed and I can't even tell for how long... haven't slept all night like always and I decided to check this story that my boss afew days a go recommended that I see... for ever grateful to you Manuela for sharing. I have no idea what am going to do next but atleast I know I need to do something about it. May God bless you ladies.

Wow.. thanks Manuela for sharing your story. This is very touching. We really need to gracious. We never know what people are going through. Yess please talk about navigating female relationships.

I'm yet to see the other story time episodes (if any) but other than Pumla's story about donating eggs this episode was just the creme de la creme!!!! Thankyou so much for opening your Life to us Manuela. We appreciate what God used that dark cloud for in transforming your life & the lives of so many others later

This is amazing.. yes and yes when people tell you I'll get back to you and they don't.. always have Grace.. Manuela thank you.. I now think I have to understand because u don't know what they are going through.

Am from UK and l just started watching these beautiful women but l just love Manuela. She such a good vibe 🇬🇧 ❤

Wow, i cried along, Manuela thank you so much for sharing your story, it really means a lot.

I'm literally crying coz I can relate, but that one friend who came and knocked...bless her heart

Thanks Manuela for sharing 😢 I have alot of gaps but will fix them. My friends call me and I look at the phone ring, of recent one of my in-laws wanted to visit but I recall telling my husband that I don't want visitors.. he kept asking why ?? Am like I don't know I just feel like am not in position to have visitors...you know people will look at you and think you got it all together but deep down things aren't working... currently my only friend I have is my husband , children mum and my sister they are the people I get to think. But am going to try writing everything on my mind down and begin giving each a solution. Talking about organization the HOT guys even putting up a weekly menu becomes an issue it's not as easy as it's sounds while you say it But thanks I must say prayer works

Thank you for sharing your story Manuela. Bear hugs. Depression is really bad. Bless you. Sending you love

My Fridays always get better with these bump shows😍well done ladies

I only knew depression as a word, u jct gave this word meaning. I now fully understand what being depressed really means and how serious it actually is.

Manuela, thank you so much for sharing, i have loved and admired you but so much more now, so much respect for you. Thank you for enabling me to face myself with what you shared today, i have been rotating in this situation for the last 3 years, and while i recognize the problem, facing it has been a struggle.

Hopefully am not the only guy watching this. Kudos to Mr. Brian Mulondo for standing with you. The end is so colourful. Seeing the organisation guru you've become attests to the fact that all things were working together for your good. The lesson for me is to never forget to look within when everything without looks like its failing. Thank you for these conversations.

Okay guys I think we can all agree that this was very empowering and raw on a different level. Am motivated

Wow Manuela… 😢😢😢. You hit me soo good today. I’m a real sanguine and so many points you mentioned today helped me recognize myself. In this generation, this is what we need.

Thank God for people like Mr. Mulondo because most people, when they see things falling apart, they put you on pressure instead of trying to see life through your lens. I hope more people can sympathize with people grappling with mental health 🥲

I am also a Sanguin. But I thank God am here 🥰🥰🥰 Have Learned alot here🙏

Thank you Manuela 🤗 I don't know why am literally crying 😭😭😭😭but anyways kindly do more episodes of this kind, may be such that I can cry more😅😅😅😅

Manuel is good public speaker!! Thank you for sharing your story

Thanks Manuela. You don't know how many people you have helped by sharing your story. God bless you.

This has helped me learn so much about myself, there are a few traits that we share after listening to your story, I wish that I had listened to this before things turned out the way they have with a very precious relationship in my life. Thanks so much for sharing Manuela.

Wow Manuela wow, what a story . Thank you for sharing , Glory be to God for taking you through those times.

Thank you Manuela for sharing your journey through depression. Depression is real and the pain about it is you feel something is wrong but you can't put a finger to it. Most times it takes someone else to help you see it. Thanks to Mr Mulondo for recognizing it and supporting you.

I didn't know am depressed till i watched this, and it started in 2016😢 the bad thing is i was fighting something i didn't know, i believe it's gonna be okay, thanks Mrs Mulondo for sharing 🙏 May God bless

Am actually rewatching the show it feels like I missed out something I need to learn. Thank manueal for sharing I never thought depression can do all that. ❤️❤️ All u ladies

This is amazing , Thank you for sharing your story Manuela have picked something, every time you ladies share i don't remain the same, love you all.

I do love what the ladies have made of themselves. You are worth all the time . I love to see how you love and support each other while tackling the issues in our beautiful society. I some times think our country Uganda has a society which protects us from some mental illnesses and also friends accept us the way we are. When you move from Uganda to mean societies like the west or in places where people only focus on your falls and never bring out the good in you. This behaviour of people can easily lead a beautiful Ugandan soul into depression as some how in our beautiful mess in the country we still have the genuine love or people give us. I do totally relate as I have seen this happening to many Ugandans or other Africans when they travel abroad or be part of those summits. May God protect us from all these evils of the world. We need to preserve our society.

Thank you Manuela for sharing. God works in mysterious ways.

Oh my Manuela, God bless you. Thank you for sharing your story candidly. I was always amazed by the energy and fire you exuded kumbe .... it was rooted in this personal journey. Eh! thank you. Am encouraged.

Thank you Bumb love, I am always looking forward to the next one. Amazing Ladies! I love you all. Manuela God is your exceeding reward. Blessing

Haha sanguine with a little bit of melancholic and choleric that's Manuela so I agree with your analogy. With similar temperaments I've dealt with being an over achiever and hating failure that pushed me into depression. This is powerful. I'm glad you shared this. Many over achievers deal with this pain

Thank you so much Manuela for this am passing through that right now but I believe with what u have shared have gained confidence that am coming out of it. I can't thank you enough

Look how God turned your depression into something beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing! You're a blessing! 💕

I needed this!!! Thanks so much Manuela

I relate 100%. Thank you so much for sharing your story Manuela. I am so encouraged.

Thank you Mauela for sharing your story and I can relate to it- as someone who suffered from an anxiety disorder and frequently got panic attacks for the most part throughout school. Which I think could have resulted into chronic depression. Thankfully I got treatment and fully recovered. Listening to the story, I was looking forward to the management of depression but the healing process was rushed through and made to seem like it can be that simple. Like it was overnight recovery. After being depressed for 6 months to the extent she was at, she could not have come out of it just like that. We would probably appreciate a part two where she can delve more into the healing process. My thoughts!!!

Thank you Manuela...this is so beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

Wow thanks for sharing. Such a personal story. Explains why you never answer insta msgs. But all in all thank you. We all are in the same state once In awhile but like Pumla said, you get up and keep going. It's really great hearing that reality of life. Thanks to your Husband for standing with you!!!

Such a powerful episode,thank you for sharing,sending you love,you came out better🎉🎉❤❤

Ohh Manuela thank u so much for sharing and for this bumplove... mehhhnnn I needed to hear a fellow sanguine say some of those things... u have done somethings to me that I will just say thank u!

👏👏👏👏👏Well done Manuel! Keep growing and glowing!

Thanks so much Manuel and bumb love at large,for helping us who are still young, we are not going to go through depression, we are already sorted out, may the good Lord bless u

Thank God for your recovery, may God continues to strengthen you and everyone trying to heal from the wounds of life.

Wow ..l have just listened to this now am l have just got to know that l went through depression but l didn't know that l was accually depressed ..l completely lost interest in things l used to love doing, started blue ticking all my friends reaching an extent of blocking everybody on my watsp and exiting all watsp groups only my work group was left active ...my best friend used to complain almost everyday about my attitude , but l absolutely never cared .....am achristian but had spent 3months without opening my bible yet it's always next to my pillow ...oh my God ... Depression is real ,it's such a dark moment . Thank you so much for sharing your story ..I have been blessed ..l believe alot is gonna change in my life especially my relationship with my family,my friends and my finances etc. Cheers @bumplove

Manuela is here making me feel every emotion.

I landed on this episode today and Manuela I cant really thank you enough. i have through the same thing n dint know what it was or wat to do about. am so relieved knowing that its know and anyone can go through it

True....around that time when Manuella was battling depression, I reached out to her. Now I have a child that had been diagnosed with mild Autism and was told The Cradle helps with some of those cases. So I reached out to her. And never got a response. I kept checking but in no avail. Well thanks for sharing this because I always thought....they were just too occupied. And never got back to people like us.

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I'm happy for the new person born.

My ever One Changing Story have Heard in my Life I can not thank you enough Bump Love. For real I am so so much Excited I appreciate you Thank you Manuela for sharing 🙏🙏

Thanks so much Manuel for sharing your life with us, God bless you bump love

Beautiful sad story been there it really takes grace for anyone to understand your situation.

Thanks for your honesty Manuella. I am in that space right now.. Thanks for that perspective.. love you bump love!

Manuel i have faced this same experience. i thank God that am healed....So much has happened and i just blacked out and the people around me wd not understand me.i am glad to reflect my experience with yours

Timing has never been perfect. Thank you bumplove

My triggers of depression have been because I'm an over achiever and my self-pressure. I constantly fight these demons and I realised I'm depressed because I have trouble with patience and waiting on God. How do I mean,Waiting for things to unravel that was my greatest lesson. Now when those pangs attack me I remember the word of God and I also tell my friends

Thank you for sharing your story Manuela. The depression story is relatable.

My twin Manuela....disorganised always late,now transforming as she has transformed but I miss the juice you used to sell while at church.....hmm your so humble woman.i love you thanks sharing your story

That must have been a dreadful time,.thank God u pushed through and made more sense out of it.

Thanks for sharing your story Manuella your such a inspiration.

How amazing it is to always listen in. I have learnt quite a lot from you ladies and I pray that God will continue to BLESS you for me. Thank you so much Manuela for sharing with us. I love y'all

Depression is real and very painful. I am glad you pulled through

Thank you Manuella for sharing your story. I've learnt a lot. Peace amd grace to you
