The last couple weeks have been the best I've had in years. I think we finally found a medication that works for me (as well as getting off social media and getting therapy). However I've been having some problems (word finding, memory, and utter exhaustion). Long story short I was asked by someone if this could be a side effect of this medication that is actually working. I consulted Dr Google and sure enough the med I'm on can cause low sodium. That in turn can cause these problems I'm noticing. However low sodium can be dangerous and requires treatment.

My first thought as I was processing all this was my doctor may take me off my new med. That of course got my thoughts going and I started getting anxious. If I have to go off this med and my depression comes back full force than I will be the worst off that I have ever been. I was freaking out on the inside and I wanted to cry (first time in a 2+ weeks). Finally my thoughts slowed down just enough to remember that I don't even know if I have low sodium. I'm freaking out about something that may not even be true nor do I know what all options I have should I have it. Then a couple verses came to my mind and I was finally able feel peace. I hope you can as well with whatever your worries may be.

Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
And do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6

But Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
Matthew 19:26

It took me 8 years to get my master's degree and my professional license. I worked for 8 years in my field. I was at work one day and then not. I found myself applying for FMLA and when the 6 weeks that were approved were over I quit. Eight years of my life, work, heartache, and money down the drain. That sure made my depression worse.

Here I am over eight months later. I had my counseling session yesterday. My therapist made the comment that a helper has to accept their helplessness. I'm a trained and licensed helper. It goes against my very nature to accept the fact that I can't help everyone. But to be able to help others I must accept that I can't help everyone. I'm not sure I can do that. How does a helper accept that they can't help everyone?

I’ve been dealing with mental and emotional exhaustion and I don’t know where God is in all of this. I feel like this storm has no end in sight and goes on forever but I know it has to stop some time. I want to throw in the towel and give God a piece of my mind because I can’t take it anymore and I want out. I thought once I came to Christ everything would be a little better but instead I fight with depression and anxiety almost daily. Why does the Bible say God will comfort those who believe in him when all I seem to get is more anxiety and depression!? Why won’t he just take my pain away already? I thought God was a God of love but why am I so mentally and emotionally drained? Why won’t he just make these demons go away? What the heck did I do to deserve this!? Oh yea I challenged him to change my life and I forgot you can’t challenge God in my ignorance and arrogance. I dared him out of anger and hatred that’s what I did now I feel damned forever because of it. I feel like I’m like a little kid asking their parent a whole of questions but half the time I feel like he doesn’t answer. #Losingfaith #Depression #SuicidalThoughts #Godisincontrol #FeelingAlone #AngeratGod
