I have been depressed most of my life and it seems like I get worse everytime. God says we are suppose to hate the world and I literally hate it with a passion..world is so bad..and my life is miserable. I just want it to all end...im sick and tired of putting this face that i am happy but im not ...i sick and tired of being strong when deep down i am broken. I am unmotivated to do anything at all. I always ask God for strength and motivation for what God has called me to do and to continue on His path but it seems like I'm in the same state. I've been praying to God ever since I was a little girl to bring me out of it..but I'm still going through the same problems with many more things added and more pain piling through and i just go through the same cycle try to be strong and try to be happy but I'm sick of "trying" . I know happiness isn't everything ...all I want is Jesus to hug me and comfort me in which I cry out to him all the time why do I feel like this still? Like Hes not there . I don't want nothing else ..honestly ask Him that He can take everything away from me I just want to be sane through His love. Btw I want to seek help but God told me nobody can help me but God himself. See I'm called to be a psychiatrist but I can't even help myself.
Thanks for your honesty. I have studied integrative counselling and psychology, I found that it stirred allot of old unresolved wounds up. I truly believe the only place that we can experience that deeper healing is through Jesus. Sometimes He delivers us of certain things within an instant; but more often than not it's a process. Renewal of the mind and sanctification (the process of being made more like Jesus). Our relationship is cooperative. Therefore there are certain things we can do to help the process. I know when we feel down the last thing we want to do is anything, but fellowship, prayer, reading the bible and trusting relationships where you can share in a compassionate, non- judgemental setting will all contribute to your restoration. Therapy is also very beneficial. Things like borderline personality disorder can benefit from certain types of therapy. I would recommend schema-therapy, although it is long term in integrates a number of modalities. Remember God can use these things as a tool to help you understand some of the reasons why you are feeling the way you feel. Emotions can feel very powerful, and yet we have the ability to choose. Take small achievable steps to begin with. Start by writing out a daily plan of motivation, then start to set goals towards your future. When you understand the truth of why your struggling, and if it's trauma related there are may things that can help. I will pray God leads and guides you into the freedom he desires for you. God bless you and keep you.
