Mental Health Awareness Month!

I have been going through something additional for a while and have been thinking about returning to an anxiety med along with my other med, I took sometime ago. However, the thing that had been preventing me from taking the medicine is the feeling that I had somehow failed.

I felt like I didn’t have enough faith in God to overcome what I had been facing. But as I continued to think and pray about it, he helped me see that seeking help is not a weakness, and it is not a failure. We do not condemn someone for taking medication for high blood pressure or diabetes.

Perhaps I should stop condemning myself for struggling emotionally. Maybe this is not about failing God at all, but about learning to accept healing in whatever form God allows it.

Until the Next Blog Be Blessed

  2. Love this message–to not condemn ourselves, especially for seeking the help we want, need, and deserve.
