"Being defeated is often a temporary condition, giving up is what makes it permanent." - Marylin vos Savant
"When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place."
"It's not that I'm so smart, it's just that I stay with problems longer." - Albert Einstein
Don't give up, trust in God. I know it
seems like you're getting nowhere, but you
are. He's going to use this that seems bad right now for something unfathomably awesome in the future.
Think of this as just something to add to your "resume" to help others and have to help you the rest of your life. Imagine being in a local drug store much later into the future when you're either a wrinkly old lady or a prince waiting to be kissed* and running into a young, vibrant, new to the faith 24 year old girl you've seen around the neighborhood a few times, walking to the counter with a box of antidepressants and a look of complete despair, and being given the chance to minister to her with testimonies of what you've gotten through with God. You'll talk about this, and even greater hardships that make this look like a walk in the park, and you'll have gotten through ALL of these just fine with God on your side, too.
Praying for you.
* no offense, just natural
