Depression remedies

Some depressions are caused by spiritual root and need deliverance. Those root are from the soul realm might take longer and those that are physical, dietary and chemical level in brain can be treated by medication.

Can God healed ‘depression’ instantly and supernaturally?

Someone told me that “overanalyzing” is a symptom of depression. This sparked my curiosity…

What is/are your spiritual beliefs?

Do you suffer from depression?

Sometimes I feel so futile in my walk. Do you all ever feel this way?

Chronic Fatigue, mental illness and even suicide? You don’t have to respond about each one. Your thoughts on any of these issues is appreciated.

Is it a battle of the mind, body, or soul?

Your thoughts?

I am already on anti-depressants, and all that. I’m looking for specifically spiritual methods. What really helps you if you’re down?

Thanks.

Over 90% of suicide victims show mental and emotional signs of depression, while over 60% have severe clinical depression. For those of you who clain suicide is a sin, have you ever been diagnosed with clinical depression. Have you had thoughts that were not yours, have you felt your body literally eating itself away while you are still alive. Do you know a single things about what happens to the brain when a person develops clinical depression?

No, I fear that most of those who this thread applys to would answer no to the majority of these questions. In fact, most of those reading this are not in situations where severe clinical depression could be developed.

Try being born to abusive meth addict parents, having extremely severe stage V acne over 80% of your face that leaves severe scarring in its wake. Most of you have no idea how dark a life can really turn, but yet you still judge those who have faced more than you will ever face.
At the time I am not feeling very suicidal, but I have struggled through things most people could never dream of. I know pain, I know the pain that most of these people feel. I have no family but a distant memory of abusive drug addicts.
Generalizations were not present if you would read my question. Everyone has problems, but I would hardly consider a child growing up being raped an everyday problem. Those who are clinically depressed are not in control of their actions, they are not trying to solve anything.
Thank you, you all answered the question just as I thought you would.

I have been praying for a job where I can use a phone & work at home & even take the phone to another location & work. I was taught that ask & you shall recieve, have faith the size of a mustard seed….My son moved over a thousand miles away because of a job transfer & I know this is why I am depressed. His brother passed away several years ago & my husband, son & I are very close. I am so angry at life. I am praying for this job & to be connected to the person I need to meet to get the job. Please don’t tell me prayer doesn’t work. I have health issues that keep me from just going into an office & working. So if you don’t believe in prayer than you would tell me to get new skills or do something else & I have tried & tried that route. So this is for people who believe in the power of prayer or the power of their subconcious mind or whatever they use to manifest what they want or need. What can I do to get this job? My Dr. said I could go into a comma & die because my blood sugar is so high. I can not get disability or anything else so no need to suggest those kinds of things.
Wow, what great answers. I understand all of you. You have all helped me. I can’t pick a best one so I want you all to know how much I appreciate your great answer & wanted to pick it for best.

The reason why I’m asking this is because I actually believe that most teenagers indocrtinated under the Christian faith might in some extreme cases might use God as a reason to blame for their problems and as a result become even more suicidal. Inside, most of these teens, are angry, confused of what and why they’re here and are distraught with so much bottled emotions over their conditioning in life. Depression is a battle no one is asking for and neither are the limited options that are available for a person to vent their problems. I’m interested to see how religion is related the developmental growth of mental health

I’m not referring to a Dark Night of the Soul , I’ve read extensively on that subject. Not feeling separated from God or that God is not reachable. That’s not what I’m talking about. I’m referring to blackness, depression, heaviness, sobbing, inability to rise up from lying position, etc due to intercessary prayer for the lost. Think of Spurgeon and Finney. Both experienced what I am talking about before going out to preach. This is not sloth. This is not sin. This is not clinical depression. I am talking about sharing in the sufferings of Christ in intercessory prayer for the lost and this causes an extreme depression that no talk therapy or medication could ever overcome.
