The Long First Step: Asking for Help by Pastor Rick Qualls

30 Things You Can Do When Someone You Love is Clinically Depressed
When you love someone that is experiencing deep depression it can be exhausting and frustrating. You want to encourage your loved one but don’t want to push them too much.

Forgiveness: The Power to Heal by Jamie Meyer
t’s human nature to want justice. We want the other person to pay for what they did. At the very least we want an apology. Deep down we even question whether the way we were treated contributed to triggering our mental illness or worsened it.
How were you hurt at the hands of another? Were you bullied, made fun of, or stigmatized because you were different from your peers? Maybe you were hurt, or continue to be, in a relationship.

“Why We Offer a Christian Mental Health Group at Our Church” By Dale Rose
As a family, where faith is paramount, we found that there wasn’t really any help within the church. We traveled from church to church because our son believed that surely we would find the right place where this ‘problem’ could be dealt with once and for all.
