One of the biggest lies of depression is that you're alone in the emptiness, you're alone in your despair.
It's simply not true. The more I am brave enough to share my experiences, the more I find others who have felt or are feeling just like me.
And I found this the other day:
You have taken account of my wanderings;
Put my tears in Your bottle.
Are they not in Your book?
Ps 56:8
I've always heard that God knows the number of hairs on my head, but I suppose I've become jaded to that precious statement. This one, though, really hits home. God knows every tear I've cried. It seems as though He's saved them, like they matter to Him. He is aware of my depression. I'm not alone.
You are definitely not alone. So many of us know about these dark paths. Help is here if you need it. Love you too much!
