Depression, i used to face.

Hello people, my name is Joshua, i used to struggle with loneliness depression and suicidal thoughts. I over came these things through faith, faith is not just believing in God but also believing in yourself. I thought life was worthless and i used to overdose on painkillers and sleeping pills. I think you people can overcome your depression as i did. I have mental issues that i deal with but being optimistic and holding a sound mind has helped me through really dark times. 



What do you believe can be key to overcoming mental issues and depression?

Massages make me feel good. Caring by sexy girls is really healing. Not long ago I used Emotoinal freedom techinque. I get rid of my anxiety. My medicens are working.

When saying that sexy girls are healing? It just does not feel right.

Josh, I'm a Christian too but really struggling right now. I pray for either healing or for God to use this depression and anxiety as a force for positive change. My children are getting older and don't need me much. I am lonely. I have separation anxiety from my family. I haven't worked in 11 years due to chronic pain. I feel useless. I have too much free time and don't know how to fill it. I'm afraid to make changes in life.

    It's going to get hotter here with Thursday being the hottest. It's noon and 75f feels more like 80 or more.I've been cleaning up the deck in this morning and cleaning the windows outside. Then I cut up a  pallet in half, I've decided to call it quits now because I went a bit light headed. Joanne, some drugs we take have an effect on us in the heat, I know a couple of mine do, maybe yours...
