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.

    Actually, our Governor called a State of Emergency.  I pray that my electric doesn't go out.  I had already planned to stay home all weekend to recuperate from a cold and do online training for my job.  That will take many hours.  I am worried for the outside kitties.  I hope your weekend goes better for you.
