Thank you so much for this video. I suffer from mental health illnesses as well and have been growing my relationship with Jesus, I have experienced some of the things that you mention in this video and they can be discouraging. But please, to those who struggle with mental illness, God loves you and that's what matters.

Thank you for your videos. I just found your channel and have been binge watching them today as depression has pulled me to the depths of despair and I am battling to get out. I have battled this for decades as well with ups and downs. Thank you for the positive, heart felt, Jesus centered messages.

Wow this is interesting timing… I finally got the guts to ask my mom about therapy and tell her a bit more about my depression. I had been dealing with it for a while since I was a child and she never really believed me. She always just told me that I wasn’t depressed and that I had nothing to be depressed about and this was when I was about 12. A few years later when quarantine hit I ended up getting extremely depressed and I asked told her again, literally sobbing my eyes out about how I’m hurting so bad (and talking about some family issues) but again I was met with cold behavior. So I just held it in for more years, but finally I’ve reached to the point where if I don’t get help soon idk what will happen. So I decided to just be bold and finally say the words “I’m depressed” to her. It was scary and I nearly cried. I had to fight those voices telling me that “it’s not worth it” and “she’s just not gonna take me seriously” because at this point the thoughts are getting really scary. But I still pushed through it and finally admitted to her that I’m STILL depressed after all these years and that I’m not ok. And so my mom was still a bit tough but she ended up texting me saying she’s gonna look for a therapist for me. (Finger crossed 🤞🏾 she actually does 😭🙏🏾✝️). But yeah this happened last night. And I was just praying to God feeling still hurt and slightly defeated because yes I’m FINALLY getting help but I still felt unsure and scared because I have prayed for nearly 10 years about my issues and still nothing has changed. And I just didn’t understand why. I even prayed to God and I asked him “God why can’t people like me and Chrissy be healed and others can? Do we just not have enough faith?” And I was just feeling so overwhelmed because I didn’t know if I was just being dramatic about my mental health, or if I just wasn’t patient enough or if I’m just being disobedient to God and trying to take my life in my own hands instead of just having faith or if I should’ve kept praying about it and layed hands on myself and pray 😭😂. But then I saw your video and i thought this is literally perfect timing. And I thought maybe I shouldn’t feel so bad about getting help because I really need this. I’m at my limit yk? And it’s a scary place to be in especially with no support from friends or family or a church. I just felt lonely. But thank you Chrissy for reminding me that mental illness is REAL and you can be a FAITHFUL CHRISTIAN and still struggle mentally. You even make me want to continue my relationship with God because I was starting to feel like I just wasn’t a good enough daughter for him and that’s why I wasn’t healed. But you are also a daughter and there are many people like us who struggle. And I’m glad you are here to show us that even if our problems aren’t delivered or go away, that God is still faithful and he still cares. I genuinely believe that despite what other Christians say. God does see us Christians suffering with mental health issues, that’s why he sent you to show us that he sees us all. So thank you again for answering the call to his request. I’m glad you started this channel and I pray you continue for as long as the Lord wills. God bless you and you’ll be in my prayers 💗 thank you ☺️💗✝️ (Also sorry if I didn’t spell your name right. I didn’t know if it’s spelt Krissy or Chrissy or Crissy so I hope it’s one of these. Anyways God bless and have a lovely day 🥰)
