It might be unhelpful to attribute your discomfort to demonic entities. I've done that myself and it can prove destructive. I find that writing out a conversation with myself every once in a while keeps my thoughts in check. The meds can work, it's just a case of finding the right drug and dose. Hope that helps.
@grimscarpious Thank you Grim. I am no longer on cymbalta but I am on other medications, I don't want to be on them though. I know I should create a journal, that is a great idea thank you :)
Good for you getting off that drug. And I would encourage you to avoid all these drugs. The FDA is nothing more than a drug pusher. There are natural remedies that God have created for various health problems it’s just a matter of knowing what it is. We need to stop putting our trust in what man makes (this is one of the ways Satan has deceived many people, including a lot of Christians) and use what God has created for our good.
@spikedude55 The best thing is to have a ring of support. Friends, family, a therapist can really help. Also it always helps to do something. Just being alone in your own thoughts can really make the depression worse. I am on the tripod system and it seems to work. Prayer Therapy and MEdication. Are you seeing a therapist or on amy meds for your depression?
@spikedude55 8 Years ago I ended up in a mental hospital due to my depression. They assured me that I would get better. WRONG.Many meds later I still struggle day to day. Hope u find a way out xx
I feel for you. I have been off and on meds most of my life. I've finally found a peace with it. I do currently take medication. I think that it was the best decision for me, and for everyone else around me. We are all different though. I noticed that this video is quite old, so how are you now, currently? If you don't mind me asking.
@TeaMaster1978 I am doing better. I did an intensive therapy program that really helped me, My OCD, My general anxiety even my social anxiety is getting better. I wasn't sleeping well so they put me on Serequel and It is making me sleepy during the day and just a tad paranoid and hard to concentrate. I am thinking of asking my doctor to go off of it though. I am glad that you are doing well as well
@AVoiceCrying33 P1) Have you tried Effexor before? Because I have to tell you, when I first went on it, I had the worst panic attack of my life! My whole body felt like it was on fire and burning. I honestly thought I was dying so I called my Mother instead of 911. I wanted to hear her voice if it was the last thing I was going to hear. Thank God for her though, she looked it up on the web real quick and said it was normal and she finally calmed me down. I was 100% going to go off of Effexor.
@AVoiceCrying33 P2) Something inside of me told me not to though. I am damn happy that I chose to stick with it. It has literally changed my life. That's what sucks about some of these drugs, the initial side effects can be horrible for some. If you haven't tried this med before, I would highly suggest that you talk to your doctor about it. I had Cancer when I was 8 years old and because of that, I have had the most horrific OCD my entire life. I was suffering and basically couldn't live.
@AVoiceCrying33 P3) I no longer am suffering, I am free so to speak. I believe that God can heal people however God chooses to. So I give thanks for this medication. I speak more boldly than I ever have in my entire life. I don't even entertain thoughts of God not existing. Now that I have my life on track and am out of that darkness, I can hear God so clearly. I can now love and serve people the way that I should be. It's a beautiful thing. I was on serequel at one point. Anti-Psychotic?
I am going thru Cymbalta withdrawal. My dr told me to take half a dose for three days then quit. I have had terrible headaches, nausea, diarrhea, hot flashes and last night screaming muscle spasms in my upper legs. The hospital said "this is just the beginning" and I should take 15 mg a day for five days and then every other day for two weeks before I dare quit the Cymbalta..I will NEVER take an anti depressant again. Cymbalta made me flat line emotionally so I would rather have sadness.
demonic forces and principalities play a large role in mental health I believe (speaking from personal experience). remember the Gadarenes demon, Legion, who led his victim into the tombs where he would cut himself with stones.. it sounds very familiar to modern youths becoming recluse and self harming, cutting themselves with sharps. also remember after Jesus rebuked the demons the man sat in his right mind..
Jesus cast out demons from an ill man, Jesus asked the demon his name who replied Legion, for there are many of us. So yes I believe mental illness in sometimes the result of demonic oppression. With this said autoimmune disease can manifest many psychiatric symptoms. Leaky Gut Syndrome is also now known to be a contributing factor to anxiety allowing a toxins through the gut to leach into the blood stream crossing to the blood brain barrier resulting in psychiatric symptoms. Check it out.
@KimberlyRose03241978 Will do I never heard of leaky guy Syndrome but I will look into it. How can you tell if a mental illness is the result of demonic influences or not that is the tricky part.
We have seen in the bible mutes, uncontrolable rages, hemreging, and other all caused by demons.
I also have to eat better as well, I know High Fructose Corn Syrup is terrible for me but I drink stuff with it all the time
It's a given that people suffer. A good psychiatrist, cognitive behavioral therapy, etc., is what you need. Be careful of being so radical with your religion because this may be a symptom in itself of your OCD or mental health. Choosing a therapist who's a devout Christian may only be reinforcing your scripts about life. You need someone who shows more neutrality and will challenge your thinking. Saying that there are "demonic" voices in mental illness is more like paranoid schizophrenia.
@flexpin123 I am a Christian, I do believe in cosmic forces greater than just you and I, But that being said Obsessive thoughst about religion can creep in and I am on guard for that but still all in all, Knowing that I am not alone and that God loves us and died for us and shows us the way to be close to him, I do feel like taht is better than any medicine that I have ever taken.
I don't was Joan of Arc a Saint or a schizophrenic, it's a fine line between madness and holiness God Bless
You have been poisoning your body with a form of witchcraft, which are called sorceries in the Bible. The praise words in the Bible will heal you if you speak them out loud. I was completely healed of a stroke by reading the Word out loud. Jesus healed the sick by the "words" He spoke. The Bible affirms that all mental illness is spiritually rooted. You will be healed if you believe without doubt. I have been pharmesecutical free for six years. Be obedient to the Holy Spirit. God will heal you.
Thank you for you comments. It is a fine line because then some would say all medicene is witchcraft and sorcery and in some cults people including children die because they don't give insilin to diabetic children or take sick children to the hospital.
But with medicines for the brain, you get very close with messing with the spirit and the soul and can do more damage than help.
God Bless you and I am glad to hear that you have been free for 6 years
Those same people who call you 'weak' for going to a therapist and say you dont have faith in God to heal you, I wonder if they got shot or got cancer would they ONLY pray to God or would they also seek out a doc to help them? Mental illness has lot of stigma attached to it and in the past most people would think it was the Devil. In a way they are right, we live in a fallen world where we do get old, and we can get cancer or we can get chemical imbalances in our brain that cause mental problems
we may not be as good at fixing issues with the brain as we are at removing bullets but people who think therapy doesn't work remind me of an old story of the man on his rooftop, in a flood and the water getting higher. He prays to God for help. People on a boat and helicopter come and offer him help but he turns them down saying God will rescue him. He dies and goes to heaven. He asks God why he did not save him. He replies, I tried to! I sent you a boat and a helicopter! Therapy etc is fine.
God can solve all problems, but often he works through people such as doctors, fireman, policemen, and yes, even psychiatrists to help people in need. God bless people doing his work, and God bless you.
