Mental illness isn't a funny place to be.
It's all in the mind.
I occassionally experienced bouts of depression.
I could not explain why I would just suddenly begin to feel mentally and emotionally drained and before I knew it I would become depressed and push every one away.
Usually triggered whenever I constantly kept feeling underachieved I guess.
I would resort to drinking till the drinking got out of hand.

I sincerely appreciate your choice of care. Wish I considered therapy back then.
I will also encourage you to please inculcate prayers to your practice.

I eventually overcame my depression through Christ and I really can't believe I ever contemplated suicide.
My Hope and Trust in Christ fuels my inexpressible joy and peace of mind.

God bless you and help liberate everyone from mental illness in Jesus name. Amen.
