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.

I just feel like God is on the side of those who hurt me. I don't have the strength to forgiveI feel depressed and trapped in pain. I don't want to
Wait until heaven to be happy. There is no guarantee I'll
Even go to heaven. I don't want to live in pain for the rest of my life, I just want a full life with a family of my own one day but God won't bring anyone into my life If I'm
Depressed, it will just hurt the other person
By the way I felt led to tell you that
God never gives us more than we can handle. He must really think you are a strong child of His.
Those who have cried out to Jesus, however deaf and blind you might have been, are saved, not one of them can be plucked out of His hand!
Please remember depression hardly ever last forever, it comes in cycles, and with faith in God you can become stronger than depression, it is something we can learn, the better you learn to deal with yourself and your depressive bouts, the less power depression has on you. You can become free though the battle for freedom might last sometime, with God in charge you can learn about the power of love.
The commandment is to love your enemies to death, surround yourself with God's love and be safe from the fiery ordeal that is depression.
To move away from there is your best chance!
(Also keep searching for the right combination of meds one of them might help.)
Thank you Jeshu for your encouragement. You're right that I should forgive I need Gods strength to do that so I'll pray for it. I pray for those who have hurt me and others that are hurting in various ways. I just don't want depression to be a lifetime issue. I hope I'll be able to accomplish my goals and to not end up alone
the people who have hurt me have moved on, like its nothing. im still in pain. i feel so empty knowing that all i can do is just pray and read the bible, but it wont take away the pain. my life is so empty. i hate school and i dont care about graduating on august 6th, things wont change anyway, ill still be depressed, ugly, and unwanted
When you pray for wisdom and read the word you find yourself starting to understand things better. Knw1991 you are going to help people who are in your position. They will be were you have been and you will be able to help them because you will know exactly what they feel. I do believe we go through things so we can help other suffering people. So God is working with you. You need to listen to a song called STOP FIGHTING THE HANDS THAT ARR HOLDING YOU.IT WAS A SONG THAT BENEFITED ME..... STAY STRONG GOD BLESS.
I don't think I'll make it out of this
