Breaking the Stigma: Saved & Anxious

Miscellaneous


This is a very hard subject to talk about, and one that is not going to make me any friends.  Churches have placed such shame on Christians who suffer with mental illnesses.  Whether you suffer from anxiety, depression, or PTSD...there is a level of shame that you tend to feel, one that we get from being told that if we were closer to God we wouldn't be dealing with.  We have been told for too long that our illness is a spiritual problem.  Join me as I break my silence on how mental illness in handled within the church (in general).
