Coping with DepressionCoping Welcome to our website, and thank you for visiting us. When we experience Depression or Anxiety, the first thing that happens is our diminished capacity to cope with life. Whether the causes are for medical reasons or for unresolved emotional issues from our childhood, it still affects our capacity to discharge our duties to our employment and to our relationships in our personal life. When we look into the emotional fog of despair, we feel like a helpless observer, and not an active controlling participant in our life around us. This is only a perception and not the truth, but it is how we feel that makes the reality, not the other way around. That is why it is so important to us to help you feel good about yourself, for if you can feel inspired, you can fight your way out of anything. We want you to know how beautiful and wonderful a person you are. It does not matter how hard of a time you are having right now, you are still important to us and to the world around you. The world still needs you. Things will get better and you will return to being strong in spirit and mind again! We want you to feel reassured. We hope that you gain some enlightenment and therefore some encouragement from the tips and insight we offer here. We want you to look at your depression and anxiety matter in a spiritual context for a second to drive home a very important point. God did not give you a life damaging condition that you cannot do anything about to overcome. He gave it to you to teach you something about yourself. That something is that you can overcome it. Whatever is causing it in your life; you can rid your life of it, if you can find the cause. You do not have to live with it because it is your job, or your relatives, or you hometown economy or whatever. God wants your victory and your happiness. If you look for the cause, and you look for another replacement for whatever is causing it, you will find it. It may be another boss, another apartment, another city to live in, another husband, wife, or loved ones to replace your relatives if abuse is involved. Whatever the cause of your pain is in your life, either internally or externally, you have a better replacement out there somewhere, we promise. What is missing in your life to take away your depression or anxiety exists somewhere, and God will lead you to it if you look within your heart. This critical piece of information God sent you here to find. That is the information we want you to learn above all else right now, for that is the foundation for a new beginning. In coping with change, we learn that we see only about ten percent of all the choices available to us. Limited by our low self-esteem and the concept of our personal powers, we blind ourselves to most of the options we have at our disposal. Most of our life’s situations are self-created. Since we create most of what we experience by our subconscious, we will not consciously see any way out of it, because that is what we feel we deserve. This is especially true with our relationships with superiors. Also in coping with change, we learn each era of our lives has a purpose, and once we focus on that purpose and the lesson, then we can move on to the next era in confidence. The most frightening thing about change is we fear loss. If things change then we will lose the love and security of something ‘near and dear’ in the present. Nevertheless, life is not static, it is dynamic, and so are we. We need not fear change, for the next era in our life will hold as much or more treasure than the present. In coping with loss with children, we learn that children are looking to us to see how we respond to life’s dilemmas. If you are strong, they will be. Do not look to them for your emotional support, which is not their job as children. Do not tell them the only reason you are there is for them, that is telling them that selfishness is bad. We should not put the responsibility for the loss upon our self if it is not. If it is our fault, then an honest confession to it will reap rewards of much respect in years to come. How realistically you see things will affect how much respect your children have for you. Do not withhold any truth from them to protect them, for they will feel betrayed and not trust you in the future. Be honest about your feelings, if you are overwhelmed, and then tell them. This teaches them to be in touch with their feelings, and that their feelings are okay, and it is okay to embrace their feelings and share them.
Below, please consider our first in series book Overcoming Depression from Emotional Abuse/The Tools of Your Mind. In this book, we talk about coping with depression and all of life's challenges, and why God gave those challenges to us in the first place. We also talk about the whole overview of our soul’s journey as we follow our heart’s dreams to our ultimate destiny. We answer many questions about selfishness, prosperity, psychotherapy, and finding our dreams and happiness. We share much about the often misunderstood subject of boundaries. We also talk about the spiritual controls we have within to bring our good to us. Those controls are our Sincerity Switch, Spontaneity Switch, and lastly our Feelings and Dreams Switch. Please keep in touch, sharing your trials and your victories with us. We promise to answer personally every Email that we receive. There is an answer for coping with all of life’s problems, and for coping with difficult choices and opportunities. We are excited that you are reaching out and seeking new insight here for a broader and more empowered life.
Thanks for the visit! Shayne and Lori North
