depression

hey what's wrong? what's up? Being suicidal can be hard, but if you focus on the blessings you have, it can help.

See a doctor.

But read John 14.1; John 14.27; Psalm 46.

Everything will be alright. I have that wish too sometimes. I just feel the need for someone to tell me that things will be Ok. Things will be OK, seriously.

Most suicidal thoughts stem not from a death wish, but from the elimination of pain---whether emotional or physical. Is that your problem? Medical help may be needed so they can get to the reason for your depression. I, and many people I've known, with those thoughts were not really depressed so much as just plain tired. Tired of the fight against the pain. Not having anyway to get rid of it and suicide seems to be the only answer--but it isn't. Just around the corner, God will have a help for you. I had given up and drained from the 24/7 physical pain that no medicine got rid off and I tried many, even methadone only to have it not work and the pain come back. I couldn't even think, and about the only thing I started praying about was for God to just take me as I could not take my life myself--suicide means you think your problem is greater than God and I just can't go there. I was tired of crying from the agony and though always opposed to cannabis, all the new research was hopeful and I finally gave in and tried it and it did help--but I couldn't afford to get the medical card and don't want to end up in jail, I was hopeless and one day I got a call and I was given $500.00--with no need to pay it back--here, that's what it costs, which is way, way higher than other places, I was able to get on it and had consistent relief for the first time in 24 years, not pain free, but almost. It gave me the break from it that I needed and I am sooo very grateful. It was like God patted me on the head and said--Don't give up---The man didn't even know me, he knew my husband and they had talked about my pain, it's been hard on him seeing me so miserable all the time with nothing he could do to help me. This friend had been given a helping hand when he was in a bad spot and the man had told him when he had an opportunity, to help someone else--for some reason he chose me to help. God said He won't give you more than you can bare, I was starting to not believe that anymore, and I was ready to just lay down and die--but He handed me a way to cope.
Don't give up. You don't know what may happen to help you. Seek for help. when there is no help available, God will step in somehow.

I'm depressed, too. I have been suicidal before and even made one attempt. But it will get better. My depression has completely gone away before but the winter months and holidays make it hard.

But it will get better.
