health memior mental story true

My mental health journey and memoir. The incredible Grace of God, and my haunting tales of being insane.  This memoir is about faith and the incredibly bizarre journey God has taken me on these last 18 years.  I've spent years in psychiatric care and have been in and out of psych wards more times than I can count. The memoir is raw, and it can be disturbing. If anything triggers you please stop reading for this story is my truth. I find comfort in Jesus Christ. This is the story He has written for me so far. My perspective is that He alone can save, and when you lose your mind it is extremely comforting to know you are not alone. This is my faith journey, and I am looking forward to what comes next.All Rights Reserved

The Battles Within by msans1972

This book contains raw, unfiltered, and graphic material. These Psalms deal with real life battles- addiction, abuse, suicidal ideations, mental illness, self-harm, trauma, homelessness, loneliness, overdose, spiritual warfare, and demonic oppression. They expose fake Christianity and bring prophetic messages. They uncover the deception Satan weaves into Catholicism and Christianity. They pull the mask off holidays twisted into lies. And they shine light on the corruption of today's society. This is not a book of polite rhymes, sugarcoated verses or polished lines. This is blood, sweat, and tears It is written for those who are struggling and don't know where to turn If that's you-know you are not alone There is hope, There is healing There is Jesus 📞 Crisis Resources (U.S.) • Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: 988 • Substance Abuse Helpline (SAMHSA): 1‑800‑662‑4357 • National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1‑800‑799‑7233

Locked In by MichaelaCilley

You don't believe me anyways. You don't see me throwing away my inhibitions or filling up my online shopping cart. You don't see me diving into new life goals and careers and areas of study. You don't see my cry to myself in the car when my chest sinks in and my head gets crushed in a vice. You don't feel the panic in my stomach whenever I must make human contact. And you sure don't see how hard I try. How I wake up every morning and apply my mask. My work mask- to conceal all of this. But.... It's been the same mask for many years And my mask is wearing thin. My sadness, my anger, my paranoia and grand euphoria are trying to become a part of your world too. A world where it's not welcome. A world where it's not understood, where it's frowned upon.

How I Found God by AndreaMaquelviski

Through this work Andréa Maquelviski shows that when you decide to enter the path of God, your self-knowledge automatically begins, awakening your conscience even more. God offers full self-knowledge that you won't find anywhere else. The abandonment of your old self and the beginning of a new road in search of the One who has always been, is and will be with you eternally. We just need to awaken and enter the path is awakening. Bon voyage! How I Found God is a personal account of the trajectory of the search and encounter with God, however, much more than talking about religion, it is going beyond. To go beyond yourself is to find yourself in God. A search, a path, an encounter, a reunion and a rebirth. It is the certainty of correct choices, of self-knowledge without makeup, masks or magic formulas. It is the achievement of walking that leads to the transcendental. That starts with simple everyday choices that will lead you to chaos or raise your level of consciousness, making you understand who you really are and who God is. Resignations, questions, doubts, problems, everyone knows that this is part of the path, it is the necessary polishing for an encounter with yourself and God, there is no way to escape this, unless you want to close your eyes and let your life pass by. in blank. It is when you and God merge into one heart, free from prejudices, ties, judgments, anything or thought that spoils this union. For God, there is no color or race, nothing, that cannot reach Him. His merciful heart welcomes ALL those who desire a sincere encounter with Him. This is more than a calling, it is an invitation to love!

Reflections: A Journey of Overcoming Mental Illness and Returning to God by btgabet

The following pages are my reflections of my last 13 years battling with severe mental health issues and my recent return to God. These years have been filled with struggle, traumas, and pain. It's no coincidence that when these struggles started, I turned my back on God and my faith and spent most of the rest of these years in darkness, depression, and despair. However, since returning to my faith, I have experienced a tremendous amount of healing, and my life has changed in ways I didn't think possible. Once haunted with my past, I have now rediscovered hope in my life, and the sting associated with my mental health issue have begun to fade. Each topic in this book covers some aspect of my mental health journey and how God has transformed my life and my perspective. This is the story of my healing.

THEY SAY AM CRAZY, BUT,I KNOW GOD CHOSE ME by Benteke13

When Benson Muchina lost everything - his dreams, his faith, and his mind - the world called him mad. But in the depths of despair, he heard a different voice - one that told him he was chosen. They Say I'm Crazy, But I Know God Chose Me is a fearless memoir about the thin line between insanity and revelation. It follows a young man from a broken life of drugs, failure, and lost identity to a divine encounter that transforms his understanding of purpose and pain. Honest, poetic, and deeply spiritual, this book takes readers on a journey through madness, faith, and redemption - showing that sometimes, the ones the world rejects are the very ones God calls.

Revelations of Alba by yourangelwarrior

Based on a true story. I was born into pain - abandoned, misunderstood, and searching for love in all the wrong places. But through heartbreak, abuse, and loneliness, I found something greater than love itself. I found God. This is the story of how a broken girl became whole again through faith, how a voice from above led me through the darkness, and how, in the end, I didn't just find God - I found myself. ✨ A journey of trauma, survival, and divine revelation.

How to Find Purpose and Peace: Why Am I Here? by tacocat91

Why am I here? What is my purpose? What is the meaning of life? Why am I alive? It seems that since the dawn of time we have been asking ourselves this very question. Kings and philosophers have puzzled and theorized, and paupers and plebeians toil under the sun wondering if there's more to life. Even today we seem to be frantically running here or there trying to get the latest scoop, wondering if someone has finally figured it out. People look high and low, and they try a number of things only to still feel unhappy and dissatisfied. In my own life, the only thing that has made me truly happy and given me peace for my soul is God. He has been the chief help in combating my anxiety and depression. For me, God has been the foundation that I've placed my life around and have built my identity. I write about how I've found purpose, peace and how you can too! Jesus loves you and has an amazing plan for your life! Buckle up, and let's read about the purpose of your life and how to find real peace!
