At least I know I'm not the only Christian who suffers from depression. God bless and stay with Him!

Thank you for posting this. Yes, God's power can take it all away. But unlike my wishes and many sincere testimonies....we cannot manipulate God nor His Power. Let's us do no harm to each other...either with our personal victories and with our clinical experiences. Let's bear each other's burden. I have seen the healed and the unhealed. There is no Charismatic formula.I was blessed by this video for it's God raw honesty.

Chonda is such a blessing. Even if you're not suffering from depression, you can learn SOMETHING from her struggles, her testimony and her walk with the Lord. She's amazing.

Thank you for posting this. I have struggled with Depression most of my life and it is sad to say that I have to hide it, because I get judged. I have been told that there is not such thing as depression, if I am depressed it is because I am not doing something right. That I should not be on medicne for depression. It is very diffcult to be a christian and have depression, because of this. When you are going threw this, that is when you need your christian family for support.

@HistoryGeek4U

you are not alone. But, at times it does feel as if you are, I know. I am one who also suffers from depression. But, some of my fellow "Christian" friends act as if I have a contagious illness. That at times makes it worse. Just keep telling yourself, like I try to, one day all of this suffering will be over and there will be no more. It's in His name I pray and give glory. THE ALMIGHTY GOD. AMEN

Worship is such a vital part of the healing experience...AMEN, Chonda!! Thank you for your transparency, your willingness to show your underside, when it's not necessarily safe to do so in our Christian community! Thank God for you!

Went through similar things. If there's anyone out there going through this,, ask for help. Tell someone. Don't think you're alone. There are many of us.
