As someone who has struggled most of my life with the
disease of depression and anxiety I was excited to study more about this topic
from the gospel perspective. I was
grateful that it was acknowledge as a real, medical problem and not just a
personal weakness. Knowing that it’s not
a personal weakness is so important to getting help and getting better. I have learned that it’s ok to get
medication, to get help. I have learned
that we are NEVER alone and that our Savior will always know how to succor us
if we just ask. Prayer is essential to dealing with depression and I am so
grateful to have prayer accessible to me whenever I need it. I have learned that there is always hope
through the Atonement and even though there may be times when life is dark,
there is always light available through my Savior. I will strive to remember that during the
hard times and be ever grateful for the divine help I have to help me get
through this trial.
