Description I saw this in the Group Description of #Depression-victims and asked if I could make it into a Stamp, and was given permission to do so.
For

GIMP 2.6.11

Edit:
If you have something to say, please limit it to critique on the stamp itself, not the message behind it. I have no associating with the Group, I simply thought it was a nice statement and converted it into a stamp.

Someone once told me, Heavenly Father won't give you a challenge he knows you couldn't overcome. I know it's hard to be strong all the time, I feel weak too. But after all the sorrow and hurt the one thought I keep repeating in my head is that he has faith in me. Just like I'm sure he has faith in you.

I'll be here for you too if you need me.

I suffer from both Anxiety and Depression. And it hurts. Really it makes you feel like you're in true pain, and you are. My family has helped me through it all and with therapy. While I don't know if there is a god, I do know that there is a strength inside everyone that can get you through whatever it is you are going through. My mom always says: 'We aren't dealt cards we cant handle.'

Yeah... I want to find that strength, but I'm not sure where to look. I wake up in the morning ready to just pull the covers over my head and go back to sleep...

Your strength is inside really. It's looking into what makes you, well, you. The good things and happiness you find in life.

Don't think about it as God abandoning you. Sometimes we have to 'walk through the fire' to find out what we're really made of. And God will never put more on you than you can handle. I myself will be sure to keep you in my prayers.

Well think of a way to save yourself. the answer lies within. And your God probably knows that you know it, so seek it.

Is it pathetic to say that I'm afraid to look? I'm not going on a cliche "emo rant" and saying that "my insides are full of dark corridors of doom and dread and that if I were to venture in I may end up lost inside myself forever", but I just don't know what to look for or how to find it...

I know is probably none of my business but i was reading all of your posts on here and just wanted to tell you something my Sunday School teacher would always tell me "God never gives your more then you can handle" Please never lose faith, i went through being depressed for about a year and then one day i woke up and i was fine, life was good again.
It will get better please know that

what to look for or how to find..? that is why you look! you sometimes find the answers in the strangest places, wandering is what we all do in life.

I would never say that God has left you, because he wouldn't. He must think you are "Strong" (like the stamp says) You have to look at it from a different perspective.

I only say that because I went though a life changing horror... And I see things differently. Because I never want to go back into depression.

Just keep your spirits up.

I guess, if I really think about it, God has put some amazing people into my life to help me through this. At least I'm alive still. I haven't been thinking suicidal thoughts for, like, months now. But I know I need something more to actually get myself out of this.
Thanks for the support. It means alot.

I feel like I don't have the strength to deal with things anymore. I don't have the strength to go about the day.

I feel the same way... But sometimes I feel restless at the same time and then I just really don't know what the hell to do with myself, which often leads to panic attacks resulting in bleeding wrists. Sorry, I shouldn't vent to strangers...

Embers-are-left In reply to adamXlambertXisXcool [2011-02-23 19:24:34 +0000 UTC]

It's okay. I still have the scars on my arms that I put there myself. We all share a lot, and we shouldn't be afraid to talk about it with each other.

adamXlambertXisXcool In reply to Embers-are-left [2011-02-23 20:32:43 +0000 UTC]

Yeah... What really worries me is that I don't mean to hurt myself... And I do it by scratching my wrists with my nails, it's not like I can just get rid of them so I don't do that... Have you stopped cutting yourself? If you have, that's a very brave and strong thing to do...

Embers-are-left In reply to adamXlambertXisXcool [2011-02-23 20:43:58 +0000 UTC]

I have stopped. I gave away my pieces of glass that I was using.
Maybe you could try cutting your nails short? Mine are short enough that I can't really hurt myself with them. And maybe put gauze bandages over the area you keep scratching. I don't think I need to remind you to wear long sleeves.

It is so tough to get up in the morning sometimes, right? Well, at least we can say we're not alone in this... Heh, could I add you? We can support each other and talk about stuff.
Ha ha, my therapist says that helping others is therapeutic and makes you feel better about your own life.

I'd love to have someone else so I'm not alone. My family and friends know about me, but most of them don't have a clue what it's like.

It doesn't apply to every case but sometimes people try to fight through a situation longer then they really have to on their own which can lead to depression. Or they suffer from it and think they can fight through it rather then get help. That's what I think it's saying anyway.

fantasygirl1189 In reply to Flyingpanzyking [2011-02-23 07:52:18 +0000 UTC]

Yes. You got it exactly right. Some people can only be strong through a situation for so long before they finally crack.

At first I didn't understand what it meant.. But its true and I agree with what Nerenea said.

This is right!
I have Depressions myself and not, because I want it or because I am weak... there is a long history behind it and I think, there is at others too
