Question

plzz can u encourage me as i am presently suffering from deprission & a lot disapointed due the uncertianity of my future studies & even my skin disease some family problem also
i need ur help

Answer 1

Yes, first of all you must accept that i can not do anything on my own, it is JESUS CHRIST who lives in us who calms the storm, the sea, who heals the sick, and say 'I will give you peace not as the world gives, but my peace I give it to you.'
He also says, ' I will not cast him away who comes to me'
so what i can do for you is pray to HIM, pray for your problems, and above all what you should do is very important,
just be on your knees, praise HIM, adore HIM, thank HIM, cry onto HIM, take and Bible, meditate upon the WORD OF GOD, ask HIM to speak to you, ask for forgiveness of your sins, surrender to HIM and see what HE does for you today, The Holy Bible says 'by HIS strips we are healed', 'by HIS blood we are cleaned from all our sins', 'by HIS poverty we are made rich'
what else do you need.
JESUS says 'COME TO ME ALL YOU WHO ARE LABOUR AND HEAVY LADEN AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST'
WHAT EVER YOU NEED my JESUS CAN GIVE YOU

Answer 2

Practice the Serenity Prayer, you know

"God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference."

Accept those things you cannot change, get some help, call your local County Health Center or County Mental Heatlth Center if they have one and make an appointment. They are private and based on your wages/etc so are usually much cheaper than normal if you don't have insurance. If you don't want to do that, go to a M.D. and ask for something for Depression, BUT GET MEDICATION, until you can get therapy! Its important to release some of the depression effects so you can live life more "normally."

Your future will work itself out, one way or another. Sometimes our dreams don't come true "right now" but there's no reason to throw them away because of that! Keep them, get medication for your skin problem and start feeling more "normal."

I have both Vitiligo (skin problem that turns you white) and 4 disorders (D.I.D., O.C.D., Bi-polar, and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) so I understand what your going through. However, if you tackle everything at once you feel overwhelmed, so concentrate on your depression and feeling better, then on your skin and then your future! This way you can "control" the flow of stress and not get swamped in feelings of helplessness.

It appears that the devil has planted the seeds of doubt in your mind that God is not available for your rescue ? When I am having a bad day , or my faith is wavering , I always try to bring to mind that there is always someone , somewhere that has bigger problems than my own ! For instance , you are much better off than the man who was just told he has terminal cancer , and has but a few months to live . Sometimes it is of great benefit for one to put other peoples problems and feelings ahead of our own . It does my heart good when I am discouraged to think of all the Blessings I am Blessed with !! Also ... Hebrews 13 : 1-2 ........Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers ; for thereby some have entertained angels unaware ... Also ....Hebrews 13 : 5-6.........Let your conversation be without covetness ; and be content which things as ye have : for he hath said , I WILL NEVER LEAVE THEE , NOR FORSAKE THEE. So that we may boldly say THE LORD IS MY HELPER , AND I WILL NOT FEAR WHAT MAN SHALL DO UNTO ME. The LORD is your light and your salvation !! May God Grant you the Peace you desire , and may God Bless you with the His guildance !!!

Answer 4

I'm an atheist, but I respect the right people have to worship I just don't do it since I don't believe there's nothing supernatural. But I feel many theists creep out when people say they don't believe in a supreme being. A friend told me "but you don't want to believe just in case?" Well, there are so many belief systems and I'll be a half-assed follower, plus I'd rather live my life my way than following some other person's idea of how to live it. I believe in one thing though, believers are way more dangerous than non-believers (unless we talk about communists trying to start an atheist state, but that's a whole different story); plus there have been less communist rebellions than "holy wars", crusades", "jihads", etc).

Answer 5

Just relax. Do something that you enjoy to take your mind off everything. If you don't think you are ready for your studies, popstpone them until you feel you are ready. You don't need to go right after highschool. I know it's easy to say to relax, but don't let it get you down. Maybe you should go talk to a professional to let your feelings out. Or, maybe a close friend or family member. Just keep your head up and a smile on your face. It will all work out.

Answer 6

Don't lose heart brother. Get a firm grip from the rock of hope. The One that has brought you so far, will take you to end and be with you in any all your problems.
He is the one who said

Behold, I am with you always, even to the end of the age



Romans 5:3-10 Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering works perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope: and hope doesn't disappoint us, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.For while we were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly For one will hardly die for a righteous man. Yet perhaps for a righteous person someone would even dare to die. But God commends his own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God's wrath through him. For if, while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we will be saved by his life.

Answer 7

Go see a professional, Christian counselor. Run, don't walk! People here don't know you and therefore can't really encourage you. You may need medical help.

Answer 8

Depression has been called the "common cold" of mental disorders, and one source estimates that it disrupts the lives of 30 to 40 million Americans. [4]
Depression is too complicated to solve with a single pat answer. Gary Collins, in Christian Counseling: A Comprehensive Guide (Dallas: Word, 1988), lists seven major categories of causes for depression,[1] and six major approaches to treating it. Each one has multiple options within each category. In addition, people use the word "depression" to cover everything from disappointment over losing a baseball game to the terrifying gloom that drives people to suicide.

The Bible does not use the word "depression," although it describes people whom we might call depressed. It certainly doesn't mention antidepressant drugs. However, there are a few general principles I would recommend when trying to deal with depression:

Aim to work on the causes of your depression, not just the symptoms.

Scripture points to many issues of sin or conflict that can affect your emotions; most counselors would agree that depression can result from other underlying issues. Don't just worry about the depression itself; check to see what other problems need attention.

Realize that you can't base life on your emotions.

Christians base life on truth, not feelings. Philippians 4:1 commands us to rejoice (whether we feel like it or not!). And James 1:2 asks us to "Consider it all joy when we fall into various trials." Notice that James doesn't tell us to feel joyful; he tells us to reckon, to choose to think about your situation as a spot where you can have joy.

Faith:
Choosing to trust truth rather than your feelings may require a lot of faith. And if that is what we mean by asking if faith can solve depression, then faith may be enough in some cases. Trusting what God says rather than your feelings is certainly a more realistic approach to life!

Heed God's Advice:
However, many people talk about "faith" and only mean a vague hope that God will somehow pull them through. That's too nebulous a concept to be reliable. Many of the same people who claim to have faith keep plunging through life ignoring God's principles for healthy living. If we spurn the good advice that the Bible contains, we won't escape the consequences - even if we have faith.

Is it right to use antidepressant drugs? Or is faith enough to solve the problem?

Chemical Imbalances:
Some cases of depression may be caused by chemical imbalances. If that is the cause, then antidepressant drugs may be the answer. God has allowed mankind to learn about many medical tools, and He sometimes uses medicine to heal. There may also be some cases of depression so severe that medications are necessary to bring the sufferer to the place where they can tackle some of the other issues; such cases might require medication, at least temporarily. I know of no Scripture that forbids such use. [1]

Unresolved Issues, Root Causes.

However, any medications should be used with caution. Virtually any medicine has some side effects. Drugs can mask the symptoms, allowing you to ignore root causes. Some people may use antidepressants to avoid approaches that require you to deal with other unresolved issues. It seems easier to pop a pill. A general rule of thumb is to try other strategies first, unless the depression is so severe that the person endangers themselves or finds themselves unable to participate in other therapies.

Depression is a complex area, and severe problems of depression deserve the attention of a pastor or other counselor.

Are there biblical examples of depression and how to deal with it?

Answer 9

Isaiah 53:5
But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.

1 Peter 2:24
who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.

Amen, praise God. By Jesus' stripes of flogging, we are healed.

When Jesus came, He died for all our sins, and we have wiped the slate clean. But as humans we continue to sin and our inequities separate us from God.

Do not only pray for healing. You already have it. Jesus died to give you that. CLAIM it.

When you pray, dont just say what you want. Claim it using the Bible verses I have provided. Also, try praying in ACTS -

A - Adoration - Give Worship and Praise To God

C - Confession - Confess your sins. Remember sin can hinder
us from God

T - Thanksgiving - Thank God for the wonders He has done in
your life. And even through your pain, you are
learning to depend on Him.

S - Supplication - Your needs - Tell Him your needs and commit
yourself and the pain into His hands, claiming
His promises that Jesus died for us at the
cross and by His stripes we are healed.

And remember, PUSH! - Pray Until Something Happens!
