I think that is very important, I struggle off and on with spiritual depression, but have family members that require medication for their imbalance.

You were so wise to seek out the Lord's help as well as the help of others. Your story is an encouragement to myself and women who experience much more than just "the blues."

I thought I was possessed when I started having suicidal thoughts and out of desperation I pleaded with the Lord to help me. My prayers were answered! I was able to find help, I started digging in the Bible for guidence in my new job as a mother ( am a stay at home mom which I resented when I was depressed because I felt that it had taken away my independence and I was no longer important) I found other wonderful women who embraced their role as homemakers and viewed it as a gift from the Lord to be in the role as mother and homemaker. It was the reassurance I needed. Thank you for the post I love hearing stories like this!Jacquiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08718736716408638229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4027870719667125440.post-59358576210294853722012-11-08T16:18:25.372-05:002012-11-08T16:18:25.372-05:00This was such a blessing to me!!

With that being said, depression is such a tangled, complicated condition that it's also wise to carefully explore the physical/physiological side of treatment. We are mind, body, and spirit, and to ignore one over the other is unbalanced. Thanks so much for stopping by and sharing your thoughts :)Lori Hatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11675180460653949981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4027870719667125440.post-79207222952811853782012-11-08T06:46:48.448-05:002012-11-08T06:46:48.448-05:00Melissa,
You are very brave to share your story. I...Melissa,<br />You are very brave to share your story. I know God's going to use your encouragement to empower many women who struggle in this way. It's a deep, deep hole, but you've proven that with God's help, we can be healed.<br /><br />You were so wise to realize the vicious cycle you were trapped in. My sister experienced the same merry go round with many different doctors, too many conflicting medications, and little hope. Sadly, she never broke free, and died at 44 years old from an interaction between physician-prescribed medications, taken as directed. Such a waste of a beautiful, creative, potential-filled life. We miss her so much. <br /><br />Thanking God today that he has healed you, and praying the same for those in similar bondage.

Depression is so real, and I love how this post points ladies to Scripture, and also acknowledges that at times there is a chemical imbalance causing it. I've had depression from the chemical imbalances, but it was still VERY important for me to guard my thoughts, and claim the truth of God's Word to help me.<br />KathieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01091930421658273296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4027870719667125440.post-14327646867259465702012-11-07T12:08:27.658-05:002012-11-07T12:08:27.658-05:00Stopping y from Mistys Wisdom Wed blog hop!

I had suffered from depression my entire life and was treated for depression/ anxiety with therapy and medicaiton since I was 15. It got to the point that the dr.'s gave me pills to counteract all the side effects I was suffering each time I visited...I had changed dr.s numerous times and each one wanted to try something different. I was up to 14 medications and had enough when I started having seizures as a result of the pills and pain. Nothing was working and each visit was nothing more than a band-aid; which would eventually fall off and reveal a nasty infection within. Feeling hopeless and wanting to give my family a better mom and wife, I turned to the bible and prayer...and my answer was my diet, an active life-style, and changing my focus. Could this answer really work? It seemed too simple. Over and over, I was convicted that our body is a temple for the Holy Spirit and my temple was in ruin. So, I began the journey of rebuilding. It took over a year to come off all the pills. This change in focus had a trickle down affect on my family...they too have stronger, healthier temples and relationships with the Lord. I'm almost 34 and I've been medicaiton/depression free for almost 3 years now. The best 3 years of my life! I notice a difference in how I feel when my focus isn't on Christ. I still have much to learn and my relationship with Christ is constantly growing; I am blessed and thankful for what God revealed to me when I gave it all to him. I'm thankful that those chains are broken, that I have the ability to cope and get through difficulties, that I'm no longer in captivity, and my family no longer suffers from my sin.

He works in subtle ways and usually it is in getting us to be too hard on ourselves. <br />I've been learning to overcome clinical depression since I was a child and as I've found my strength in Christ I have been able to shake off the chains that bind me.
