-- Posted by xalyndx at 10:00 am on June 13, 2008 i'm in serious need of talking to someone who' s been there, not some happy church people or finding god. im a christian and i should feel good but i don't, i have no self confidence, and before i was hospitlized i wanted to kill myself like 100x a day. like it'd come in waves, and then leave and i'd be scared it'd come again. anyways..............yeah any info would be nice thanks. -- Posted by Aliboo at 10:02 am on June 13, 2008 Im a christian too and i've had issues with mild to moderate depression. Ive never been hospitilized or diagnosed, I just keep on going. There are a lot of ups and downs. if you want to talk, i'll listen -- Posted by greatescape at 10:04 am on June 13, 2008 Yo.  PM me if you want. -- Posted by amiee at 2:32 pm on June 13, 2008 There are absolutely such things as depression and self-confidence groups. I'd suggest you pop along to your doctors and ask him/her about them, and hopefully they could point you in the right direction for finding such groups. Also - I think it's a positive sign that you're recognising your own feelings and recognising that they need dealt with now. Just because you're a Christian doesn't mean that you should feel happy and have self-confidence or whatever. You should possess those things because it's your given right - we all deserve happiness - and if you don't feel too grand then you should absolutely do all you can to get back to a place where you feel comfortable within yourself. As I said, seeking out such support groups is a really positive thing for you to be doing, and I hope you manage to find some. :] Other than that, I'm sure you know that there are so many other people out there to help you, yeah? And should you ever need a chat or a rant, or anything at all, feel free to PM me absolutely anytime. Take care of yourself, and best of luck to you. I really hope it all works out for you.
