I always depressed for so many reason...first I am a thousand miles away from my husband. secondly, depression of my job, financial,friends, failures and family. I depressed most of the time and end up crying in my room. after I cried then I wake and have a new ME! I thinking sometimes, why do I need to depress and find out myself that I can do it after I cried and tears. so many things bothered in my mind..so many problems I incountered but yet. Im still me! standing strong appearance but so weak inside. did your depression drive you like this?

Yes it did!!. I found out that it weakens you in many ways!!.. I still feel depressed .. and trying to lead a normal life is difficult. I failed two job interviews in the past 5 months.. and things are not getting much better. All I can do is keep trying and listen to friends advice, and my inner voice, that taking it one step at a time.. I may be able to look at things differently ..with time.

You may not like my answer to your question but here goes anyway. My de[ression did indeed drive me the very same way. i would hide from the world attempting to escape my life through books. I read books for 3 weeks straight once just to get into a new reality, not because they were necessarily good books but because they were a means of escape. I have spent many nights crying myself to sleep over loneliness and perceived injustice due to my circumstances. I have yelled at God that He was not being fair to me. I have cried myself to the point of illness on more than one occasion only to wake in the morning to a bright new world. Then one day, I found the answer to ridding myself of these deep depressions. When I had finally, finally, finally had enough I met my Savior. When I finally gave into the calling of the Lord Jesus Christ He pulled me right out of that depression roller coaster. I no longer suffer from the manic depressive cycle because I am a new creation in Christ Jesus. PM me if you want more.
