"Depression". 9-16-11


I used to sing  "You Are My Sunshine" to my little children...where have all the year's gone?













The stories the fear's and the quite time's with just us...I have really been struggling this past week with depression, it is the worst I have ever dealt with. Hopefully I can get it under control...sometime's it seem's no one listen's. I try to hold on to good memorie's and carry on.  I pray for no one to have to go through this dark depression, it has been the hardest thing I have ever dealt with. I honestly can see how people get so down that they end their live's. But I know that if I do it to the least of these I have done it unto the Father...and I would never want to hurt my family with such a cruel act. Please pray for the depressed (even me).
Have a good weekend. Love from Debbie:)

  2. Debbie, I believe we all have at one point or another have been down, blue, sad, meloncholy to the dark side or even depressed. I had a bit of back in the early 2000's when I lost 2 of my dearest friends, my grandpa & my favorite uncle all in a 10 DAY period. I didn't think I would come through it but I did. I hung on. I cleft to my bible, my remaining friends and prayer. I will pray for you today for your dark cloud to be lifted. Hugs... Tammy

  3. Hi Debbie,
    I'm sorry to hear that you are so depressed. I was struggling with this the last year and I see that you're a Christian too so could I suggest something? I read the book "1000 Gifts" from Ann Voscamp and it helped me so much I can't even tell you. She is a Christian too. She helps you get through the depression, I'll tell you. In the meantime, I'm praying for you.
    xo,
    Sonya

  4. Some days are harder than most, I fully understand your agony. I wish I could help, but I am often in the same boat, lately. I do tend to cry a lot, and try to get interested in something, anything. Even the blogs, that I am so fond of, have lost their charm. You will be on my mind.

  5. Debbie, I will keep you in my prayers! I know the feeling of depression. I have battled it since my husband's death. Just know that in addition to God's love, you have the love of your blogging friends too.

  6. Oh Debbie,
    I used to sing that song to my kids when they were small too. In fact, I have a wooden sign on my windowsill that says "You are my sunshine." I'm so sorry you are feeling down lately, but please know this - The world is a sweeter place because you're in it. I am listening, my dear, and I am sending love your way.

  7. With all the troubles we have in this world today, is it any wonder some, if not most of us have these awful bouts! Please know you are not alone...we know your pain, because we are going through it too!
    The best we can do to help each other is letting the other know we love you and ask that you don't give up!
    If you can't pray now, just call out to the Lord. He hears our pain and knows we need Him. Your light gives us all hope...we depend on you and hope you are depending on us. Isn't that what love is?
    May the Lord continue to give you His mercy and love. Blessings and Luv.

  8. My deepest sympathy during this time. I often suffer from depression and know how it can overtake you. As much as you probably don't feel like, get out and get some sun and exercise. Both really help get those endorphins pumping.

    You're certainly not alone.

  10. As a long sufferer of depression I have had dark days of my own. Hang in there...find something that will "fill" you...a good friend, a good book,(The Traveler's Gift by Andy Andrews) a sunny window. You are strong enough to write about it you need to find the strength to put good things in!
