No saben la paz que me da poder escribirles un pedacito de mi historia con el corazón en calma.
Aquí les va.
• When I first came here, my eyes were fixed on my pain instead of on Jesus. My heart was completely shattered. I had been battling severe depression for over two years, on the maximum dosage of antidepressants, taking pills just to sleep, and crying myself to sleep almost every night. I experienced frequent panic attacks and was consumed by fear, anxiety, and profound sorrow. I was also deeply exhausted, both physically and emotionally, but in Jesus, I have found rest and peace.
Here, I found incredible people who were willing to pray for me and offer their support, and I am deeply grateful that my family was always there for me, providing their unwavering love and care. Over the past few months, I had several panic attacks, but after several powerful moments of prayer with friends and family, I am overjoyed to share that now I only take a third of the initial dosage of antidepressants. My last panic attack was two months ago, and I no longer need sleeping pills, nor do I cry myself to sleep. Finally, I can rest in peace.
I used to feel the need to express my pain in ways that left marks on my skin, as if trying to carve out the sorrow I carried within, but He has washed my pain and fears.
I was terrified of uncertainty, but now I know Jesus holds my future in His hands.
Sharing my story made me nervous at first, but I remember the hope I felt when others shared theirs with me — how they overcame depression and left medication behind. It gave me the strength to believe I could find healing too.
I know how dark and overwhelming the struggle can feel. It may seem impossible to overcome, but I want to tell you this: if I was able to find healing with God’s help, so can you.
Si motiva a uno solo más, ya vale la pena.
