Hi, all. I'm still quite down. I'm seeing my psychiatrist today and I pray he'll help me. I don't think he believes me when I tell him just how depressed I am. I wouldn't keep making appointments with him if I didn't need the help. Please pray for me for relief and for release, that I'll be given medication that works and will be feeling better soon. Also please pray for my circumstances in general to improve. I think I may have seasonal depression (Winter is just starting here) and I live with elderly people who can be demanding and very dependent, draining me emotionally.

Thank you, and blessings.
 
Amen Sister @AngelsAmongUs, May God ease the burdens you carry, and bring the peace you seek.
I'm not sure David may have experienced the type of depression you have, but he did utter these following
words in Psa 51:12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
God bless you in Jesus' name. :wave2

I'll be praying for you AAU.
In the meantime, may I offer some advice?
Find a different doctor.

The Lord be with you and bless you abundantly,
May He keep you in His care and make Himself be felt by you.

Wondering
 
Please step away from those psychiatrist's and do this instead..

I Peter 5:6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:

7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

When were YOU depressed TOB??
 
O my dear AngelsAmongUs. I'm soooo sorry that you have to endure such a heavy depression. I'm a Christian Psychologist, and have helped others escape that black cloud the envelopes you when you wake up in the morning. I suffered from a deep depression after my wonderful Wife Jennie died of cancer at the age of 50. She and I ministered together as I was the Pastor/Teacher of three Baptist Churches. Jennie ministered to the women, and she was great.

A year after she died, I had a bad stroke which left me with a post stroke depression on top of the depression I already had. Then a heart attack, and another post heart attack depression. Needless to say, I was a mess and had to retire from the full time ministry. With my psychology background, I was able, with Jesus' help, climb out of that deep black hole.

If you would like it, I'm willing to counsel you in "start a conversation". There is no charge for my help. I received freely from Jesus, freely I give out. There is help for you to be sure. Jesus can set you free, He's the only one who can. The Holy Spirit is really the Counselor, not me. As I study your background and present trials, the Holy Spirit will tell me how to treat you. Remember, nothing is impossible with the Lord, nothing!!

Let me know please what your decision is. A book that I recommend to my clients is "Finding Hope Again" by Neil Anderson & Hal Baumchen. Its very helpful.
 
Praying for you. I will say that meds only go so far ((personal experience)). My medication deals with the worst symptoms and the physical stuff--lethargy, for instance--but that leaves a lot to me+The Lord to deal with.

:-)
