The truth about depression

I read a very brave account of one artist’s experience with depression here. Wendy is an artist and was recently diagnosed with depression..which took her by surprise.

As some of you know I’ve dealt with depression for a long time. Most of my life really; although I wasn’t diagnosed until I was 39. People forget that depression isn’t just “wallowing in self pity” or “being a drama queen”. It is a real illness, one that many people have..and fortunately one that can be treated.

So, read Wendy’s story (and check out her art).

The next question is….what is it like to be a christian with depression…and how do other christians accept your diagnosis…….
