What is your experience with fighting against prolonged depression?
I'm fighting this battle for a very long time, and I wish I could find the inner strength to defeat it. The thing is that I grew used to it, and I find it hard to remember how things were before.
As strangely as it may sound, there are times when I find comfort in my gloomy state. I find it problematic to be enthusiastic about things. There aren't many things that can make me joyfull. Seeing my loved ones happy is the most consistent source of joy.
The truth is that I find this world very limited, in what joys it can offer.
The truth is I need to change my state of mind, because I fear it will affect my future. I can't see myself beeing a good housband and father with my current limitations.
I don't have the right to be resentful of God for the challenges he brought in my life. As I comfortably write this post from work, there are people who suffer and get killed for their belief in God. I just want to find a way to feel lasting happines, I want my soul to feel fulfilment, I know that what I'm asking is not much for a God that created things much more complex than I can dream of understanding.
The problem is me. I know that God is the answer to my emptiness. I wish my belief in Him would be unwielding even in times of dispare.
If I'm going to be completely healed in this life, it must come by His hand, because I can't see a possibile way to get out of it by myself.
What is your experience with prolonged depression, and what gives you the strenght to move forward, in the hope for a better tomorrow?
