• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Hi Jesuslove 70708.
I'm kinda going through the same thing. I've never really suffered from hard-core depression in my life, but I'm pretty sure I am now. Started about a year and a half ago and I can't seem to shake it. And I'm recently struggling with my faith as well, probably due to the depression. And I also know what you mean when you say "I looked up proof of Jesus and it got worse". I go through the same thing, especially when you turn to the internet 'cuz you're also going to find articles from different religions and atheists that plant seeds of doubt. But I'm hangin' in there- still a Christian.
Sounds like you might have a case of depression yourself, but I'm not a Dr. so I can't say for sure. It'd be hypocritical for me to tell you to seek counseling because I haven't done so myself, but I am considering it. Some seem to benefit from it, so maybe take a look at it and decide for yourself.
So I'm in no position to give you the advice you're seeking, but I did want to say hello and let you know that you're not the only one in the world going through something like this. Sometimes that can be comforting.
