: Hey
: I just wanna say that I just diagnosed with Chronic Depression Syndrome. I guess I've had it for a while I just didn't want to face it because "being a christian and all" I wasn't supposed to feel this way, but because of a true friend he said mabey God wants you go through this. He just liberated me because, I did'nt want to act fake so with you guys prayers and support I 'll make it through this "dark cloud" and find beauty in this life.

well while i would like to say i understand..i kinda dont..i thought i was depressed before..i dont think i am..i am pretty uppety for the most part..
all i can say is ryan hang in there..and choose to fixate on the beautiful..if you make a concientous decision to see the beautiful you will..now if you choose to focus on what isnt so grand or beautiful..you will find it..you will find lots of reasons to get caught up in that whole..i am depressed state..
your feelings arent the best meter to measure by what GOD is doin..and they also arent the best indicator that there is good stuff happenin..so all i can say is...learn to differentiate from your feelings and reality..as my head tells me lies constantly..the battle for the most part is in your cranium..remember that...not that i know everything..but i think that at times i can share something..and hopefully it hits home..and takes residence in the hearts of many..GOD is with us..we have nothing to fear.
