Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Not a very kind response I'm afraid.
I would have thought you too have a mental illness given you are here. I do, don't you?
As to the God stuff, please keep it private as it does not help depression at all. Never has, never will. If it did help why are you or any of us here and still suffering? Does your God never respond?
Oh yes, I know, mysterious ways. Like no answered prayers, ever.
I know who you were addressing Fly. When you write the things you have written you must expect others to oppose it as it is fantasy I'm afraid. And quite hurtful too.
In your last post before the above you said Mikail had a mental illness and I merely said we all do. So what's your point there? None. We all have skewed thinking at times because of it and nothing you say will change that.
As to the religious diatribes simply repeating that stuff over and over again just tells me you don't really believe it either as few here do.
A God that will not answer ANY prayers is a God that does not exist.
And to tell Mikail that she is wrong about her religious thoughts is so awful I can't tell you. It's you that has the problem really Fly as you think you are the only one that is right, about anything.
That is not supportive or useful to anbody in any way.
Please desist with this religious fanatacism else we'll have a full discussion of it and I'm afraid you haven't done the research I have. I suspect you've read the Bible, but probably not all of it and you certainly don't know what most of it means in it's true context.
Let me give you an example. When did the Bible first exist, and why? Try answering that please.
But whatever you do please disist in telling people what they should think and believe. You are welcome to your beliefs but that's all they are.
It pays to know which sex you are talking too.
It's an open discussion so comments can go whichever way they need to. Clearly you can't meet the challenge I issued you and that's fine. End of diatribes, yes?
To Baz, Do you ever have anything but sniping comments to make? If so I haven't seen them. I suspect you've been here too long and become bored and cynical. It's boring.
Report me if you wish.
When the world shouts "Give Up"
Hope whispers "Try One More Time"
To Baz,
Sorry I don't go behindpeople's backs and report. I say it to them. Like you. If you haven't anything but a sniping comment how does it help anyone? I write to help and you sit there trying to find things to relieve your boredom. ENough. Try a positive apporoach
Sorry Fly, Diatribes are long and meaningless, as in preaching about God when you don't even understand the Bible. If you want to give up, just don't reply and we'll all know the depth of your "knowledge".
If you are going to throw God up as a saviour then you will be challenged given his total failure to deliver on one thing promised.
Stop mentioning it and you won't hear from me. This is not a religious forum either you know. It's about depression, one illness religion has no record of success with.
Why do you insist on challenging people? Making up for some other inferiority?
