Strong, Beautiful Flowers Battered By The Storm

| Christian Women With Depression, Depression

In “Streams in the Desert”, I read of a beautiful flower that grows both up on an unprotected mountain top as well as in the valley.  The version in the valley is pallid, without much shape or color.  The version on the mountain top, however, is beautifully colored and shaped – magnificent.  It reminded me […]

| body image, Christian Women With Depression, Depression

Unbelievable! I was at the gym on the treadmill and saw a commercial for a diet pill that basically told you (through images) if you take the pill, you’ll look like these young, tiny half-clad girls, and end up with a gorgeous guy holding you close. And you’ll be loved, desired and happy! Bahahahahahahahaha. At […]

Everything is meaningless…

September 30, 2010

| Christian Women With Depression, Depression, disappointment

Ecclesiastes 2:10-11 really bugs me.  I denied myself nothing my eyes desired; I refused my heart no pleasure. My heart took delight in all my work, and this was the reward for all my labor. Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless, […]

The Battle to “Be Still”

| anxiety, be still, Christian Women With Depression, Depression, panic, think it through

Be still and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.  Ps. 46:10 Being still is the hardest thing when you are anxious or depressed.  I know, in my case, that was because if I was still, my thoughts used to SCREAM at me, […]

I Feel Much Better Since I Gave Up Hope…

| anxiety, Christian Women With Depression, Depression, hope

I know that sounds like a really stupid thing to say, but sometimes, you need to know that what you are hoping to find ISN’T ACTUALLY OUT THERE.  That was something that had a very freeing effect on me.  Once I found out I was tormenting myself looking for something that didn’t exist (basically uncovered […]

The Trouble with Tribbles (Or How Little Things Multiply and Take Over)

September 28, 2010

| anxiety, Christian Women With Depression, panic, think it through

I still have panic attacks.  Little ones, mostly.  Like the kind when all of a sudden your heart starts to race, and your hands start to tingle.  It happened this morning, when the bills came in, along with my unemployment benefits letter.  To fill you in, after working for myself for several years as a […]
