So Many Christians Don’t Understand Mental Health
Sometimes Christians treat mental health as invalid or something only to be taken care of to prayer. In this video I advocate for psychology and mental health practices being compatible with Christianity. I hope you enjoy.

SUBSCRIBE IF YOU LOVE GOD VIDEOS DONT SEND YOU TO HELL 🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for addressing this!!!!! Although sadly this isnt just limited to mental health. Ive been told that the reason I have psoriasis (skin disease I was born with) is because i dont pray enough
Thank you so much for addressing the problem, I know the difference between a brainrot manipulative Christian vid to a video that actually helps me, for example a manipulative one is: SCROLL IF YOU LOVE THE DEVIL, or GOD WILL SEND YOU TO HELL, this is a horrible tactic, and no I’m not better than them we all sinned but I hope these RUclips vids get taken off RUclips
SHOW OUT TO THIS MAN!!!! ive been so freaking terrified by these videos and so i always feel like i HAVE to watch it. let alone, i have a huge AND I MEAN HUGE anxiety disorder. so every time i see a video like "oct 31st is your last day to say goodbye" or "God will leave you forever if you skip". i honestly was about to say im done, but thank you so much for this video.
Thank you so much for making this video I honestly hate that most of us Christians demonize any kind of mental health help that people need. It honestly makes us look like we're crazy, and we don't have all the answers when we really do!
Needed this
10:27 your jacket magically changed! Great video though, thank you!
I'm not a Christian and I disagree with 1% of what you said/ when you claimed that the mind and body being seperated of different needs but 99% of what you said is accurate for sure.
hey I appreciate the sentiment. I also just wanted to clarify that in that section I was talking about what some Christians say, but that I actually disagree. I don’t think the mind and body are separated, it’s something Christians claim to try and excuse or devalue psychology and mental health. I should have clarified better though, I think. Sorry about that.
Mental health is real,and it sucks😢
Hey Orlando, maybe you’ll see this, maybe you won’t. I just wanted to say that you’re a blessing to my life. Your perspective and experiences are something i relate with so deeply. Never thought I’d see these themes on Christian RUclips or media in general. God’s using you for His good work, and I’m glad he is
Hi Kodi. I saw it. And I’m honestly so glad to hear that. It’s comments like these that seriously keep me going; truly it means so much to me. I wish you the best Kodi, and I hope you find life fulfilling and meaningful as you go about your days.
What sucks is that I’ve taken on the view at times. (I feel)Depression and mental illnesses is how God can test a person’s faith, similar to trial and tribulations. Most people cant really empathize with people that have mental illness, and possibly are afraid to ask God for empathy in those type of situations due to the fact that they don’t want to experience those kinds of things. (Free yappachino)
I got miraculously healed overnight from 7.5 years major depression, 1.5 years after becoming a Christian. God helped me through the depression, but the miraculous healing was when a church member prayed for me and I felt a weight lifted off my shoulders, like an evil spirit had left me. As Christians we also need to recognise that spiritual forces are often at play in mental health (e.g. the demon possessed man in Mark 5/Luke 8) and Jesus wants to and WILL heal, but in His timing!! And God also takes bad things and turns them out for our good, it was my desperation in the depression that led me to Christ!
as a christian, i am mental :3
I guess it depends on each circumstance. If God wants to use your story for His glory, He will ask you not to go to a therapist and to just rely solely on Him. Over 2 years ago I was in dire need of both a therapist and medical care, as I was on my death bed. I kept asking the Lord to bring me the right people (yes, we are asked to go to God first unless of course we’re not breathing and need to be rushed to the hospital) and I heard God as clear as day in my spirit say “Just trust me”. Here I am over 2 years later, restored in my mind and in my health. He showed me the necessary steps to take to heal physically and taught me psychology to heal my mental health and showed me where it stemmed from. The best thing we can do for each of ourselves is to go to God and seek HIM first as we are able then act on what He instructs us to do.
Not to mention how several people in the Bible dealt with suicidal thoughts and/or depressive symptoms, and God didn't get angry with them or say they needed more faith. People like Elijah, Paul, and Jonah, who we look up to so highly because of what they did for God, still felt so weighed down by the pressures of life that they didn't want to keep going at times. God gave Elisha rest, food, and a purpose in the desert; He gave Paul strength as he relied on God. And Jonah, even though one could argue that the reason for his anger and depression was wrong, still wasn't condemned by God. God talked to him kindly and tried to reason with him. He didn't shame any of those heroes of the faith for their weakness, so we can't judge those around us who are struggling either.
Mental health can also strongly be related to physical health. I have stuggled with depression and anxiety since I was a baby. I was just recently diagnosed with a genetic disorder (and other issues with my spine and brain) that cause both, and it finally makes more sense now. This was a great video and important for people to hear!
dude, that's exactly what should be addressed, there are truly some christians who would say stuff like "anxiety is a sin" or mental illnesses don't exist", I have autism and ocd, and one time a friend of mine (he's orthodox) he said to me "you're not autistic, I rebuke it in the name of the holy trinity", I asked him "would you rebuke schizophrenia" and he said "yes" and even said "schizophrenic people can see demons" or saying stuff like "this is all demonic influence", I wasn't going to start a debate but I can tell some people are kind of being fundamentalists and don't even realize. mental illnesses are a real thing, these people need real help, telling them that they don't need meds is telling them to make things worse, go figure
Ok, I totally burst out crying when you read God's response to Elijah- Our Father knows that sometimes all we need is a little food and water and sleep. And he provided those things personally. I'm so glad to be called his daughter.
Thank you thank you THANK YOU for this. I grew up believing that if I was having mental/emotional problems, it was just cause "I'm not praying enough" or "reading the bible enough". I ended up hating myself, being suicidal, and thinking I was the worst Christian in the universe. Those things are absolutely important, but they never made my problems suddenly disappear. In fact, the more I took my Christian faith seriously and grown in maturity, the worse my problems got. Then I found out I'm not stupid or evil, I have ADHD and it's been the source of most of my problems for most of my life. I still struggle with suicidal desires, self hatred, depression, anxiety, etc etc. And guess what? Going to church, praying, and reading the bible has not made them go away. AND THAT'S OKAY. This is how my brain was designed, and it's something I need to get through with help from God and things like therapy, DNRS, meds, whatever it takes. I grew up believing SO many harmful lies because Christians in general are so ignorant and afraid of things they don't understand like mental health problems and science. They're too afraid and prideful to do their research and accept "new" ideas. God is NOT anti-science, and He created our extremely complex brains and minds, AND He understands and knows mental illness. He literally knows how our brains tick and every single tiny detail of them. He created them, after all. Thank you again for this video, I've been struggling with mental health really bad lately and I'm so glad there's a Christian speaking out on this! <3
Good video man. Most of The churchs have had thier lampstands removed and you cant trust what they say. Especially when it comes to topic like this.
Matthew 5:3 Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. 5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. 6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. 7 Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy. 8 Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. 10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. 12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
It's not just these types of videos but RUclipsrs themselves that try to teach other but don't even know the gospel or even know Christ. I've seen one video by a RUclipsr talking about how if you're fat you're not a Christian or something like that. It's honestly disturbing.
Loving the piano 🎹 in the background .
this video was a breath of fresh air. thank you
Yeah me either but depression is gone for me lol
I haven’t even watch the full video yet, but I already agree with your claim. Elijah was depressed yet he is regarded as a great prophet.
We need more Christian therapist, it sad that many believers struggle with thier mental health at a point were they take thier life 😭
Thanks for this. This is especially important as someone who's been hearing voices. I've even gone to deliverance ministry and they had me repent and renounce of mental therapy, and they tried casting things out of me. It's honestly been traumatic, and it's been very scary to hear people say that they think what I am going through is demonic. But, now that I have a psychotic depression diagnosis and am on medications, I am on the road to recovery and have been hearing less auditory hallucinations. It's a combo of medication, therapy, and continuing to follow God every day without the pressure of needing to be "delivered" from anything. I just go about my day normally. Being a Christian that experiences psychosis is quite an isolating and unique experience.
Yes I feel for you, a lot of those deliverance ministries think that there are demons behind everything when sometimes there are actual mental health conditions, sometimes deliverance may work but ultimately that comes from the Lord, some of the deliverance ministries keep people in bondage by saying it’s always a demon when it’s not, I’ll keep you in prayer 🙏
A lot of us got saved bc of faith
This made me think about the song "I don't have to pretend" by victory❤
Glad to see you made a new video, and one that's on a subject that's so important !
Yessss i 100% agree if you read the Bible it always says do not worry or fear not!!! Because in this world its guaranteed that we will have tribulations!!!! But in JESUS CHRIST we have Peace that surpasses oir human understaning in a ll the chaos around us
THANK YOU! I was so appalled to hear John MacArthur say PTSD is not real. How many wars has he fought in? Zero. How many SA's did he survive? Zero. How many times has he come to the brink of starvation? Zero. I'm still incredulous. Videos like this are so needed.
I’m not sure who that is but I’ve been really struggling with some people’s presumptions that completely ignore people’s experiences.
Bro changed clothes multiple times and thought we wouldn't notice. Think again 🕵🏻♂ But fr though, great video, good insight on a commonly misconstrued topic (on both sides). Keep up the good work
@@Blasted_Potato made me laugh, thanks for the kind words
one of the 50 videos ill ever like
Thank you so much for making this video!!!!! ❤😢 May God bless you always
God bless you too
It’s true many people in the Bible suffered
thankyou
It so hard for me because I have anxiety and low self-esteem and health issues that affects mu brain so much I can't remember this like reading or simple words or writing. It so hard to remember words in the bible you can reading for and I can't remember !@#$ and I think it my fault that I can't remember Jesus Christ WORDS I feel that I'm not learning about him and I'm failing him...but sometimes I know it not my fault...sometimes....and sorry I write so bad I have dyslexia as well I'm so sorry 🙏.
Don’t apologize, you wrote very nicely. And I definitely think God is cool and loving enough to know what your heart is, and not worry about things like words or spelling. You’re doing great.
@@orlando-kang thank you I'm trying not to cry right now I'm holding my tears back🤧
I feel like deliverance hasn't been helping me much, and I'm like hoping to God it does. I been hearing demonic voices for years. since 2019. Was diagnosed with schizoaffective in 2019 and to this day I don't agree with it because none of the meds help and given up and even lied to doctors saying meds work to end conversion. It's very tiring, and facing depression and urges to drink.
That sounds extremely hard. I'm a Christian with psychotic depression and I hear voices and sometimes see hallucinations. Are you sure the voices are demonic, and not just verbal auditory hallucinations like I'm experiencing? I think you should try again with the medication - maybe something will help. A support group run by professionals or an organization like a hospital might help. There might be a group out there for voice-hearers. I understand how tiring that might be, hearing voices is not fun, and has made me feel incredibly depressed, too.
@c4ss1a I do see help but even with meds I still hear demonic voices. I understand your concern though, and I appreciate it 😊
Mental health is spiritual*
Mental health is spritual
Sorry but mental health is spiritual as someone said. I will say it again. Ive had demonic dreams of satan attacking me. Its spiritual. U need deliverance from it.
Not everyone’s mental health issues were your experience though. That’s what his point was.
@theSamuraiKaizen And thats why ppl shouldnt ignore it being spiritual either, thats also how many got heales from mental health because of Jesus healed them. Also shouldnt ignore others testimonies
@@MrJuulia01 I appreciate your testimony and perspective but mental health is a nuanced issue that isn’t solely spiritual. Jesus can heal anything but it’s not up to us to boss Jesus around and demand that he heal us if we have enough faith. Someone not being healed is just life sometimes.
@@MrJuulia01I agree it shouldn’t be ignored. That’s why at 3:30 I mention the spiritual aspect and the testimonies you brought up. And I think that’s great if that works for people, I just think it’s reductive to try and claim all mental health comes from that one reason only.
Sorry but mental health is spiritual as someone said. I will say it again. Ive had demonic dreams of satan attacking me. Its spiritual. U need deliverance from it.
U notice none wants to be depressed or have suicidal thoughts, see thats NOT YOU.
Did people seriously forget that Jesus wept?
Elijah was so angry he wanted to die and so God helped him sleep and gave him bread. Never underestimate the spiritual power of a nap and a snack. On a serious note, mental health can be treated in many ways, just like your physical health. You will get there as long as God is in the process (whatever that process may be). Look after yourselves and each other this Movember.
100% agreed; great point.
Yes, Amen! Telling a Christian with scrupulosity they just need to pray "harder" or longer is unhelpful. Like what does harder even mean?! Especially when you talk to God daily, all throughout the day. Some christians act so much holier than others. 😑
So true
Mark de Jesus is such a wonderful Christian RUclipsr that makes great videos and resources about OCD and mental health in general. I highly recommend his channel to you or anyone who's reading this.
Thank you so much! It’s really discouraging when your Christian friends make fun of you for your mental problems. I’ve seen it so much both to me, and to others. So, thank you so much for explaining this in a good, and proper way. God bless, Jesus loves you!
THANK YOU for that video I REALLY enjoyed it that's something we can always work on as Christ follows and we are called to love God and love neighbor God bless ☺️.
