Stress/depression problems (please help)

[Seward14]

Lately I've become a hardcore christian and also lately, I have been going through a lot of stress,depression,mood swifts, I have had these going on for about 2 months now because of wrestling, and a lot of school work and to make it worse my brother has recently left to Afghanistan he's a cavalry scout in the army and I wont see him for more than a year and that's what really hit me I tried a lot of things music, talking, eating healthy, working out, etc. but it doesn't work I've prayed to God and now i'm going here to see if anyone can help me. Please respond, thank you

God Bless You.

Can I ask what you mean by a hardcore Christian?
Sounds like you are under a lot of stress so it can be hard to do the things you mentioned. When a family member is being sent overseas like that it is even hard. Try to hold on to God and he will see you through even when you think it is impossible.

thanks, by what I mean by hardcore I've became really religious.

Have you tried taking a break, and do something new? It helps to do something new to break the stress. Like get a massage. Or go see a movie that can make you laugh.

Although for me I listen to my Joyce Meyer vids on youtube when I'm frustrated. It helps me stay on track, and learn something.

Although, I don't know what it is like to have someone overseas in the army. But I can imagine. I'd be in a nervous wreck. But it does make me wonder. Is your brother religious too? If he is, we can pray for a victory for him. And pray for God to watch over him, and give him protection, and the strength for a good fight over there. I'll pray for your brother so he can have all of that! ;D
