Depression is a common, serious illness and never a personal weakness. Depression may happen to anyone, at any age, and to people of any race or ethnic group. It is never a “normal” part of life.
Depression is treatable. And I am the example.
If you want to survive, you should help yourself. Start with accepting your situation. Get out of your room. I want you to know that, no matter where you are in life… No matter how low you have sunk… No matter how hard your situation… there will always be a solution.
My depression started when my friends left me. I felt that no one loves me especially when I needed someone to talk to. I was academically pressured too. There was this time when I tried to kill myself and when I was about to kick the chair off, I heard multiple knocks on my door. A person gave me a letter... The MAN in my dreams "You don't have to fight your battle alone" were the words written in it. It gave me motivation that I still have a bright future ahead. Through that, I met Him–I met my savior. This person became the instrument of God to make me feel good.
You should stop saying that you are not worth it because God created everything beautiful and you, we are a part of it.
I survived because I believed in myself. With the help of Ken, I was able to overcome my situation. If you struggle financially and don't have money to consult a psychiatrist, talk to your parents, friends or your guidance counselor. Support system is very important.
If you are suffering depression, always remember that it is not the end. He will not give us a situation we can't survive. You should believe in yourself. Trust on the process, Let Go, Let God.
And to my Man, thank you for the love and support.
