  • I Think I'm An Expert By Now...

    I have spent the last 30-odd years battling depression. I have been told that Christians shouldn't be depressed; that it's my fault, that something is wrong with my faith, and the list goes on.
     
    I have made my peace with the fact that I'll live with this for the rest of my life, but I think it's time for the Church (in its widest sense) to wake up and start dealing with reality. Depression is not "negative thoughts", it is not "sinful" - it is simply a diagnosed medical condition that needs to be managed.
     
    Maybe my story can help others. Maybe you can help me.
