maybe the secular approach to mental health isn't sufficient forme |
the meds have helped me, and they still are. but i'm beginning to think
that they can't take me all the way to the goal, becoming free from
depression and anxiety.
i don't think it's wise to reject the secular psychiatric approach, but
it alone may not suffice. maybe i need to get back to God, in complete
submission (to Jesus not only as Savior but also as Lord), abandoning my
futile selfish ambitions and living to serve Him. perhaps that is my
only way to complete healing, to a full life.
maybe i was predestined to go through all this suffering only to finally
discover the only way out...

Have you considered Judaism? You get to grow a beard that way. Islam's
good for that too, but I gather Moslems aren't too popular in the USA.
Mind you, Sikhism's the best - you'd have to grow a beard. I'm assuming
that one can convert to become a Sikh; it takes two or three years to
become a Jew.

The opinions given above may be mine. They might also
just be what I feel like saying right now, okay?

That's a good suggestion.He does seem to like Jesus.

I see people say this all the time and they never explain it.
Well if Jesus was a Jew, then why did he have a Mexican name?

Well faith might help in addition to the usual treatments. If you have
guilt feelings that will only hinder you I think. Maybe a 12 step program
of some sort? Is emotions anonymous 12 step? A lot of people with mental
illnesses have problems with religion. I think as a group, generally, we
all get too serious about it. But then we take everything too seriously. I
hope your faith helps you to feel better.

there's a place in Toronto called " The Self Help Clearing House "
that boasts over 500 known 12 step groups and if you can't find one you like
they'll help you start a new one

a "mistress" would make me feel better and keep my thoughts off my
problems, but she wouldn't cure my depression and anxiety...

But she'd give you something to be anxious about.
