Hi all,

 

[TaterFaith]

Hi all,

My name is Jason and I am currently 17 years old. I reside in the UK. Currently suffering from severe depression, so much that I have become an hermit. I was sectioned towards the end of last year and deemed to be suffering from severe depression but was given no medication as denied all sucidal ideas and the like. What is interesting though, is that I was sectioned shortly after purchasing a bible.

My experience wasn't as bad as I initially thought, but still, that does not take away the fact that I have live with being sectioned for the rest of my life. I am still the same, as I still don't leave the house. I have no hope. I can't seem to find enjoyment in anything. My depression has been gradual, nearly a year and half now and to be honest, I'm at the bottom. The only way is up I guess, but still, how can I even do that when all enjoyment is gone? I feel empty.

I shall stop now as it's not fair of myself to unload my burdens on you. I would however, like to thank-you for reading this; I appreciate it.

Kindest Regards,
Jason

Welcome to CFI will be praying for you. I'm so sorry you have had to deal with depression, it is tough. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding but acknowledge Him in everything and He will direct your paths. God bless you and I hope you find great encouragement and fellowship here.

[BlessEwe]

I just wanted to pop in and say welcome! I also wanted to invite you into the recovery area, but it looks like several already did. One nice thing about having a computer is you can still fellowship with others, I think you will make some nice friends here.
Welcome!

Welcome! As BlessEwe mentioned, we would love to have you join us in the Recovery area so we can love on you and offer prayer and support.
