I doubt this will make sense to anyone. I'm not entirely sure that I understand it. But I've been slowly improving with this depression thing for a few weeks...and I made it leave. Last night, I forced it out. I know that's hard to believe, and you're probably gonna think that I must ...

We are too focused on the physical realm and this dimension most of us exist in. There are spirits both good and bad and onlyl God (and the name of Jesus Christ) can make them depart. It is becoming more and more evident that modern psychiatry doesn't really have a clue and the money making pharmaceuticals often to more harm than good -- surely a pharmaceutical has never cured anyone with depression or suicidal thoughts. I am very happy for you!

Yes a pharmaceutical drug cured my depression......so they do work ( this was after trying 4 which didn't work). The mind is very powerful and I believe in its power to cure in some cases. Medical science is also powerful and has the ability to cure. R

Oh I totally agree with you. Medical science is amazing and the mind is extremely powerful...in fact I believe that depression cannot be cured without the willpower of the person who has it. It must be willed away, and sometimes that's enough. But more often than not, it also requires some assistance from medication, other people, and/or God. I'm certainly not saying that it can only be cured by a miracle like that. That's just what it took for me =)

That is Awesome

I too believe you and have been thinking more and more about the spiritual dimension of the experience of depression and how to adapt to it. This is something that's been with me my entire life, and most non-spiritual approaches have not worked. My spirituality runs deep, though it is different from yours, and I have no doubt I can find a way on this level to change the direction of my life. I wish you well and hope you will keep writing here about your experiences.

dispression is a horrible thing 2 years ago i had depression to the stage i tried to take my own life. it started of with a x- partner threatening following me around threatening my children for a year he was doing this the courts let him walk away. I couldnt do it any more one night i sat and wrote a letter to my mum to take care of my children. my biggest regrate my son found me laying in my bed after I took the pills, then i met my new partner and things was looking up and i felt i could cope with life.
these last few weeks i can feel the depreeion coming back it like a monster ive just manage to drag myself to the doctors and my worst fear was going back on the anti- depressions. my parnter dont want me to go back on them i just say if they help with the way i feel its the only thing i can do. sorry if this bores you and if it dont make sense. i will say i think the biggest step to recovery is talking about it.

Something I've kinda learned from all this is that YOU are stronger than the depression. I often feel it creeping up on me again, ready to attack and drag me back down. Maybe this sounds bogus, but you can tell it to go away. You are more powerful than you think. Tell it to GET OUT. It'll attack when you're most vulnerable, but you still have to fight. It's possible. For some people, it will never go away. But you don't have to let it affect you. I hope this makes sense.
