to the Christian battling depression, anxiety, and mental health
Being a Christian and struggling with mental health problems can feel very discouraging and shameful, but God isn’t mad at you! In fact, God desires to help you, walk alongside you in your struggle, and rescue and redeem you from your suffering! I hope these truths affirm you in whatever you are walking in, just as they have helped me in my battles 🙂

LAST WEEK’S VIDEO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXPF-77gHf0&t=93s
I LOVE Y’ALL!! Remember to SUBSCRIBE, turn on NOTIFICATIONS, LIKE the video, and COMMENT something sweet 🙂
Wow, I admire this young lady. It is so refreshing to see someone get it. It’s Battlefield of the Mind, a good book from Joyce Meyer that I highly recommend. The scriptures tells us in Proverbs so as a man/woman thinks so they become. In 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 we are to pull down strongholds that exalts itself against the knowledge of God. We are to speak against the spiritual darkness that satan will try to bring in our lives. We need to take our authority against spiritual Warfare like Paul tells us in Ephesians 6. I agree with this beautiful young woman, reading and staying in God’s word and standing firm, trusting in God, and praying without ceasing is what we need daily. Letting the WORD of GOD dominate your thinking ( instead of constantly thinking about your circumstances ) is to allow the Holy Spirit to have control over your mind. So whoever controls your mind controls you. So who are you going to listen too? GOD or the devil. Remember satan comes to steal, kill and destroy. John 10:10.
Speak out the Word as well.
Thank you so much for this video. It really helped me today.
May God bless everyone struggling with their mental health in Jesus Christ name amen

Amen amen , I battle with mental health and been diagnosed with Bipolar 2 , but Gods been with me in my battle , this video was such a God send , God Bless you so much , really needed
Hi
Clinically diagnosed with Depression and other symptoms manifesting… I could have other mental illnesses as per my psychiatrist and psychologist but God has been very, very good and faithful to me through my battles. My church has also been supported and loving! It’s been 1 year since my diagnosis . I can still feel some symptoms resurfacing and hitting me harder but I noticed I am much stronger than before.. God is good. My test is my testimony
I have been diagnosed with Gad/ Generalized Anxiety Disorder…. I suffer really bad from uncontrollable anxiety. Ive prayed for years and years! It does not go away! Ive asked God to take it away but it never goes away. The anxiety can be so bad at times that im afraid to leave my room or go around allot of people. It makes me feel so depressed and hopeless especially how can can I do the lords will if im suffering from this horrible mental illness…. Idk why God is allowing me to suffer from this disorder but watever the reason I know in the end he does love me! And soon we will be with him for eternity and we will never have to suffer from mental illness anymore.
I’m struggling everyday w my mental health!!
Thank you so much for this ♥️
Very nice suggestions. Also because a diagnosis of a mental disorder is a medical problem medication is also an option depending on severity.
This video is amazing! What strength, courage and hope it brings. I have shared it with some people I know because it is so good. Thank God for you! When I am healed in Gods timing, I want to use this season to share the work and love of God! ❤️
Your first point about God not being mad at me hit home. I have been fighting with Him about this
I’m having problems with mental health stress, food, basically everything, it was getting better, but I guess it came back…
I would like to find a website for people who are struggling with their connection to God can discuss where they are at and receive feedback and from other members of the community as to things they’ve learned that have helped them in their own growth even if not specifically or explicitly Christian. No, nothing like ‘witch spells or satanist’ stuff, but just access to information from different avenues of life that they have Incorporated which has strengthened who they are and as well possibly their spirituality. The point is that the website would not be geared to merely or only saying just pray to God, read scripture or believe in Jesus, but instead allows people to share different avenues of inspiration that have helped them. It would be awesome for this to be for Christians or people struggling in their Christianity.
I guess what I’m saying is that when you talk about struggling with your faith a lot of discussion of course goes back to ‘reading scripture’ ‘believing Jesus’ ‘trusting God’ but I wish there was a forum for people to share different elements that they have integrated into their lives that have strengthened them as people. Basically bits of knowledge, experiences that are not always the Bible or Jesus-centric.
Hi beautiful I have been breaking down and have committed sin been drinking, why there was a person at this place that hurt me and have been taking advantage of me, talking behind my back
Amen, thank you, God bless you!
God healed me from anxiety, and the deceptive feelings of condemnation which caused obsessive compulsive behaviors. If he can do it for me, he can do it for you. Don’t give up. Keep going. Keep praying. (If you comment/ reply, I can pray for you too ❤) Only believe. All things are possible to those who believe.
"Luke 1:37 "For nothing will be impossible with God.”
God loves you and he cares deeply about you. He sent his son to save you. Will he stop at that? Will he not also graciously give you all else that you need? Can he not save from anxiety, from fear? (Romans 8:32) He is the God who created the heavens and the earth. He has full control of the wind and the sea. Is he not also able to save you? Have faith in God. Trust him and his perfect timing.
I study my Bible everyday but still want to go to Bible College and make more friends and learn more about God and his word
Struggling for 10+ years, I don’t remember what it feels to be normal anymore
A genuine sharing and this will be a blessing to many in moving forward towards Christ
Hey sister where did you get that Bible
Can’t tell you how encouraging this is right now. Much needed….God bless
♥️♥️♥️♥️thank you
May God bless you and walk with you always. Amen.
i battle a lot with religious anxiety. It started 2/3 years ago when I started dating a guy and for some reason I felt realy anxious and guilty about it. I didn’t know why and it made me think that God didn’t want me to date him, but I loved him and didn’t want to break up. Everyone in my church said that my concern didn’t make any sense and that I was overthinking, but it didn’t go away. This made me struggle with a lot of anxiety and depression for about a year, when I fell out of love and broke up with him. I thought that that would mean that the anxiety and depression would go away (bc all of it were directioned only to this situation). But after I broke up, more things made me feel the same way: guilty and anxious. My desire to pursue music career without wanting to be a gospel artist, my desire to dye my hair, me talking to a guy I was kinda interested. All of it made me think “i want this, but what if God doesn’t want this for me???” And all of the anxiety came back. even things that never happened! Im learning korean because I want to go to an exchange program in korea. But then I think: “what if God doesn’t want this for me???”. Last year I was studying for my SAT’s to go to college. But I kept thinking “what if no matter how much I study, i wont get in because it isn’t in God’s plans for me?“. It feels like the only way I would make all of this go away is if I were to live a super religious life, which no matter how much I love God, I just don’t want to. I don’t want to be those people that don’t have dreams of their own, or doesn’t sing “secular” songs because it doesn’t worship God (Except for those which are actually bad), etc etc. I still struggle with this and I don’t know what to do. I don’t want to be these radical people that 100% of what they do and say revolves around God. As if I were a nun. And this makes me feel guilty as well. God gives me so much and get anxious about the idea of living for Him??? Seem so ungrateful of me. I just can’t give myself a rest.

What wisdom from such a young person. This was one of the most inspirational and well spoken videos on this subject. You have a gift! I believe you have helped a few people with this video. Great job!
I have body issues. I hate my body and I cut..
Hi, I need some help from anyone.
I’m 14 and from England. Recently I’ve been feeling like a terrible Christian. I’ve fallen into a cycle of porn, lying, swearing, stealing. My parents are devout Christians and so are some of my friends. Last week I went to a youth event with around 100 young Christians. I can’t help but find myself comparing myself to all the others. All of them were praying, getting prophetic words/ pictures/ raising their arms etc. But no matter how hard I tried nothing seemed to happen. I can’t help but feel everyone is better/ more loved than me. I’ve had prayers for healing before but I cant seem to hear god. What am I doing wrong? I’m in a very bad place at the moment and have tried to commit suicide before. I self harm and hate my life – this one tiny bit of faith I have is all I seem to be keeping me going. Help, please.
lesbian preacher good
"Surround yourself with people who will affirm the Truth to you." — for someone with social anxiety, this really resonates. I grew up in a Christian community until I got to college, becoming friends with people outside of that, who gave me the social trauma got me into the place I’m at.
Thank you
Thank you
Thank you so much for this ❤️
I’ve been in my bedroom for several months…depressed bad bad bad.
I’m a born again Christian too.
I’ve noticed sense I got saved in 2016 that my mental issues got 70% worse…and that is all because of the Enemy… I believe with my heart that when the enemy realized he can no longer have my soul that he was going to do all he could just to torment my mind and honestly he has and lately I’ve had thoughts of not wanting to live and that’s a drawing point for me surrendering every ounce of depression and anxiety my Lord Jesus Christ please pray for me
ms.girl- you NEED to be a preacher or teach sermons!!! your amazing!
