depression...
suppression...
oppression...aren't they really all connected?
if you remove the sources of suppression and oppression from your life, will you then also be free of depression?
there's no lasting freedom without control, though... BUT NOT CONTROL BY AN EXTERNAL SOURCE... people ask why God doesn't do anything... but God doesn't want to control you...
and yes, I might be projecting, but who really isn't? doesn't psychiatry also project diagnosises into people's minds, so that they act out the role they have been given by psychiatrists?
the revolution isn't pill-shaped...
please note that I'm not excluding the possibility that sometimes an actual physical brain dysfunction can be a source for depression... but don't forget that medication itself can also act as the suppressor and oppressor...
"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love." 1 John 4:18
