  • In this episode, Adrienne Houghton and Angelica Nwandu join Stephanie Ike to talk about how one can be a Christian and struggle with their mental health. The conversation will specifically focus on situational depression, which is usually triggered by things such as life-altering events or a personal crisis. Adrienne Houghton is an actress, singer, and one of the hosts on the Emmy-award winning talk show “The Real.” Angelica Nwandu is the founder of “The Shade Room” and the executive producer of this show, “The Same Room.” These women speak candidly about how their expectations for marriage, motherhood, and a myriad of other things, ultimately led them to a place of depression. However, in this episode they also discuss how they overcame.

      Rebuke it AND do the work to heal. Meditate on the word of God and cry out to God. God will heal the root of depression- and studying the word, worship, pray and even counseling for some really lead us to total healing. I am in a process of being healed from lots of grief and loss- which at times can feel depressing. I had to learn not only to come against depression, but also to let God love on me through His word and presence and even counseling has been great accountability.

      I can definitely relate. A lot of apostolic churches are like this because they base a lot of doctrine out of the Old Testament, where God “punishes” instead of convicts by the Holy Spirit with love. I still struggle with this and learning to discern the difference between an unhealthy fear and right fear of God.

I still believe the whole Bible cover to cover. But I’m now understanding more the character of God, he doesn’t hate me and he’s not always angry with me. He loves me. When I make a mistake I repent and turn to him because it’s as if I hurt my closest friend I could ever have. God is so different from what I grew up understanding and it’s no wonder I wasn’t as close to him growing up. I was scared of everything.

      Sorry beloved but if we love God and desires to live a life pleasing to Our heavenly FATHER He will takes all the things that it’s not His, stop letting people lead y’all the wrong way. Let the Holy Spirit teach you guide you.
      I know I was in the lowest part of my life I use to drink to mask what I was going through sleep all the time so I don’t have to face reality. I was unhappy sad depressed wanted to commit suicide I just wanted to die.
      The Almighty Father didn’t want me to die in my sins or die without knowing Him in the Spiritual way. He allows me to seek Him with every Fiber of my beings and He divinely change me in the blink of an eye the depression the sadness everything that didn’t please Him the FATHER took those away from me.
      So When the FATHER dwells in us all these abomination like depression unforgiveness hate sadness fornication etc etc is not apart of us anymore. He cleanse us from all that. And the Holy Spirit leads us to a smooth part. Let the Holy Spirit be y’all teacher instead of mare mortal. The Holy Spirit is the Master teacher because it is the Spirit of God our breath of Life.

    I appreciate Angelica transparency. The more I study the bible, the more I want to please God. At times it feels like the walk can be overwhelming especially in the beginning until I read and studied Psalm 24. I discovered we cannot live up to verse 4 (the answer to V3) which lead me to God making a better covenant - we enter through Jesus righteousness and our faith. Of course God want us to walk, live and act right but he also know we could never be perfect. Therefore, he sent his son to save us.I feel better now and just keep studying the bible.

I love how you talked about that moment of exchange and the fact that we don't know how long it took for Him to give her the big bear. I believe some of us are standing in our own way. God is holding what you desire right behind His back but He is waiting on you to give up what's currently in your hand.

I literally just got out of a relationship where I KNEW that this would have been the situation. I would have had to sacrifice my purpose to be with him. It hurt like HELL and I’m still recovering but God, not my will but Your will be done. I pray for anyone who is going through the same thing, end it quickly and move forward in your purpose. When God closes one door, it’s ALWAYS because he has a better door waiting for you to walk through. ❤️

    This is real talk, and we need more of it in the body of Christ. I have struggled with depression for many years. I'm a Leader in the church and I was ashamed to say that I was hurting. I walked around with a mask on pretending that all was good, until I could barely hang on. That was in 2014. I truly think God for my Mother in The Ministry 🙏, I thank God for The Sisterhood Ministry,. They did not allow me to die in the pit. As women of God we need to stop being jealous of one another's hair and clothes and shoes and cars, etc. Yes sister could be spiritually dying sitting right there beside you and you never notice because of jealousy. It's funny what god with birth out of you when you were in a pit. God 🙏 birth a play out of me, he birth a poem, and so many other things. Women I've got all around the world take off your masks, and cry out to God for help you will deliver you he will bring you through with a song in your heart , a clap in your hand, a dancing your feet, and praise in your mouth. I am no longer a shame of dealing with depression. I can help others because I have been there and still struggle some days. We need more platforms where Christians can be honest and say that they are struggling in different areas and not be condemned but shown love and mercy. I think each and every one of you for this topic for being real for being transparent. Again I like to emphasize that you love on your sisters not tear them down,, because even as Christians we all still struggle in different areas.

    Many people in the Bible like David and Job suffered from what sounded like depression. I think key to them overcoming it was not breaking communication with God, be it prayer or reading scripture. Even in despair, you always find comfort and hope, it maybe fleeting by hope nonetheless, when praying and reading the Word because you’re reminded that God is in control. For some of us depression is a constant thorn we might live with all our lives, but His grace is sufficient and that’s all we need 🙏🏾

    I believe focusing on God’s word and using it as your blueprint will get you closer to Him. As humans we get depressed when unpleasant things happen or when there is delay of an expectation, we sometimes feel like God’s not there or well it’s just life. But He is there, and these depressing situations are intended to build our spiritual muscles and bring us closer to Him.

      We are not perfect to what the world deem as perfect but according to the scriptures we are to be perfect in Him. My question to people who say they Love God and you make Him you number one, How can one still suffer with depression sadness un worthiness etc etc?
      After we seek Him with our whole heart mind body and soul His Holy Spirit dwells in us and all those abominable things are taken from us. We can’t walk with Him and still walk in darkness it just don’t go together.
      What people problem is they listen to mare mortal instead of the breath of life the Holy Spirit that dwells in us. He is our teacher our motivator our comforter our helper our way maker. So in the midst of this chaotic world we finds Peace and Love within and not let the things of this world even financial struggles because from experience He sustains until He answers prayers .
      From we becomes alert as we awaken His is our Inspiration because He gives us a other day to make it better than it was yesterday in other words everyday we reach HighYah and HighYah in Him. But until we put away the flesh people will continue in anything that’s not pleasing to Him.

    This is deep! And this really blessed me. You got to be real with God every time! He knows you ain't perfect and he wants to help you overcome that and give you his strength. This is a very beautiful message and surely saves one from 'being performance-driven', which ultimately leads to depression because you feel you aren't were you should be or you aren't at that bar folks expect of you. At some point, in talking about the character of God and how you just keep loving him even when you don't get what you want, it brought tears to my eyes. God is really real and good even when we don't get 'it' or 'that' and even when we don't understand it at all.
    Thank you Stephanie Ike and Angelica Nwandu and Adrienne Houghton. You are a lovely host Stephanie, I love the way you drove through the conversation taking us back to definite things about God. You are really beautiful in Him.

      I, SO DO AGREE THAT 60 YEAR OLD IS THE NEW 40! HOW CAN SO MANY YOUNG FEMALE FEMALES ALWAYS WANT TO THROW NUMBERS TO CONFINE THEIR POINT OF THEIR VIEW. 60 YEAR OLD GET MARRY ALSO. I JUST DID OFFICIATED A WEDDING AND THE MARRY BRIDE WAS 60 YEARS OF AGE HER NEW HUSBAND IS 65 WAS. Both of Them Have HIGH ENERGY. How can we look down at 60 when the President Elected JOE BIDEN is now 78 he will be turning 82 in the competition of his four year term of Presidency. EVEN PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP IS IN HIS LATE 70 and the both of these men are running a country and international political arrangements when it comes to America and the new laws and the effect of what goes on in other countries that can definitely effect our lives from other countries. This is ridiculous why do some of these young panels ever have a mix panel with age. I been watching this on RUclips and other social media outlets that many if these panels are not interested in the opinion of mature women and it shows because they are never having 50 or 60 years old on their panels of discussion. This is age Prejudice Against the seniors who are still active and living and building new Careers and have wisdom to share with greater understanding of knowledge to share but being stop Due to the lack of mix age group s of panels that don’t want to here the mature point of views.
