I'm new here and didn't know if there was a better place to post this. I know I am not the only one who has gone through depression (though sometimes I feel like it lol). I have a couple of questions...
1) For those of you who have experienced depression...what are some ways that you have overcome it or at least been able to deal with it?
2) Unrelated (or maybe it is..) for the Christians here that have felt this way. I haven't really felt close to God. I've felt He couldn't possibly care about me...I do know what the bible said and some really nice people here have quoted scripture. The question is though, how do you get a closer relationship with him? I have prayed...I just don't see how it is possible for someone as mighty as God to care about me. I don't feel like I deserve it even if I did ever feel that.
