“When I went through surgery and recovery with my brain tumor people brought meals to the house, cards came in the mail, people called. But two years later when I crashed with depression I felt forgotten. Nobody called and someone in our Bible study group tole me that I just needed to get over it,” said Jamie Meyer, author of Stepping out of Depression; Fresh Hope for Women Who Hurt.

Unfortunately, her experience within her church is the what too many folks who have a mental health issue also experience.  That is, everyone is there with prayer, home visits and casseroles, but no one shows up following your hospitalization for depression.  On this edition of Fresh Hope for Mental Health Jamie and her husband Allen will be sharing their journey to living well in spite of the mental health challenge Jamie faced head on.
