When I 'Suspend' my Linux Mint PC and then turn on again it doesn't ask me for login credentials and it just opens my Desktop directly, which is not safe at all with the room-mate I have.

Y- Thanks,

Hello Yazeed92,

I'm assuming your using cinnamon if not the procedure would be different.
go to Menu>System Tools> System Settings > Brightness and Lock > the last box is require my password when waking from suspend. make sure it has a check mark in it.

Nadia is the name of the version

in mate i believe you go to Control Center> Screen Saver and check the box that says lock screen when screen saver is active.
