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.

knw, if the future seems bleak, that's just an opinion. We don't know anything about the future, except one thing: God is in it.
The Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. (Deut 31:6)
I know but it hurts to think positive when nothing positive is happening for me. Everyday I get up I'm reminded of the pain I'm in. I don't want go on. Why did God let me get in this death trap depression. My mind is heavy and damaged.I use to think stuff like what if i live with these doubts and fears forever. What if my circumstances stay the same what ifs ran through my mind all day. I finally hit a point where i was tired of feeling down all the time. So one day I prayed dear heavenly father i am sick and tired of being sick and tired. If you keep me where i am for the rest of my life im either going to have to learn to be happy were i am at. Or stay miserable. Today heavenly father im going to start to be positive. No matter what. Amen. Do you know once I started to force myself to think more positive i actually started to feel more positive. I felt as If God new I was going to press forward no matter what. Then good things started to happen. Then I started to feel myself getting stronger and stronger....... so maybe you are just going to get tired of being tired . It all happens in Gods timing. Start praying for wisdom God will give it
It's not fair that I would have to stay this way. This all started with me wanting to be saved and because I had doubts I became depressed and everything else happened. I didn't go out party, get drunk and sleep around but hose people are better off than me. They are happy and don't fall into suicidal depression like I do and if they wanted to be saved they would be and would go on to live a meaningful life and won't have to deal with suicidal depression. But my life was a waste, a pathetic Life spent being the odd one out with no father. I can't keep typing what I want to say I don't want people to notice me crying at the partyI use to think stuff like what if i live with these doubts and fears forever. What if my circumstances stay the same what ifs ran through my mind all day. I finally hit a point where i was tired of feeling down all the time. So one day I prayed dear heavenly father i am sick and tired of being sick and tired. If you keep me where i am for the rest of my life im either going to have to learn to be happy were i am at. Or stay miserable. Today heavenly father im going to start to be positive. No matter what. Amen. Do you know once I started to force myself to think more positive i actually started to feel more positive. I felt as If God new I was going to press forward no matter what.

I know how you feel. When I was at my lowest point of depression my family had a family get togetjer and still felt lonely. All i wanted to do was be by myself. Picture Jesus sitting beside you because He is there with you. Start doing that start picturing Jesus right there with you.
Well if I get wrath for wanting to be saved, for being born without a dedicated father, then there may be no hope for me. And if you don't have anything nice to say to someone that's battled depression for 2 years you shouldn't comment at all. I'm sure it's wreth anyway I don't belong to God no one would want me anyway
If you want to belong to God, then you belong to Him. If you feel rejected by people, this has nothing to do with how God relates to you.
Your worth in life has absolutely nothing to do with being liked or wanted by others. Other people don't own your value. Other people don't get to vote on whether your life is worth something. They aren't God.
But God believes that you are worth something: unique, irreplaceable you. He created you in love, so that you could know Him and love Him.
I am so sorry that you are in pain, knw. But God's will is perfect, and He is making you strong through this.
