Depression is a horrible thing, isn't it? We've probably all met it face to face to one degree or another. Singleness only adds to the problem it seems, as a high rate of singles do suffer from severe depression for a multitude of reasons.
How about you? Have you ever dealt with bouts of depression? How did you deal with it? Are you in a battle with it now? How are you handling it?
People mean well when they offer platitudes and/or beat people down with scripture who are already hurting, but it is my hope that people who have been there can offer something life-changing to those who are wrestling with this issue.
As brothers and sisters in Christ, it is my hope and prayer that anyone and everyone participating in this discussion will be highly considerate and respectful of one another, as this is a very serious issue and you never know how your words may affect someone going through this. Be warned that ANY ABUSIVE BEHAVIOR WHATSOEVER will be reported immediately, as we want those participating in the conversation to know that this is a safe place to share their hearts and concerns regarding this very personal matter. Please pray before you post and consider your words carefully...and pray for those who are hurting here.
