    I’m a nurse practitioner and I believe that mental illness is real. I believe that you can take medication until you build up faith and be healed. I also know that whom God sets free is free INDEED! You don’t encounter God and remain the same, never! He is not a man that he should lie. It’s ok not to be ok. It’s ok to get help. But I pray God delivers you soon because if he heals your mind, you will never need any pill anymore. God bless you and your family.

    I was molested at 8, my dad died at 12, and by 14 I was smoking weed. This led me to take prescription pills and psychedelics. Now im diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and I did some CRAZY things because of mental illness. Im not at all ashamed of taking medicine. Ive seen my brain without it! Praise God for his redemption in my life

    I’m a flawed and broken Christian and I take a pill. I hope our Heavenly Father heals me one day, but for now, it makes me a better man of God.

    “Jesus don’t judge me, man” low key broke down crying right there 😭 it’s like a breath of fresh air to know that you’re not the only one.. this is one of my favorite testimonies! Very powerful! Thank you both for your work in the Kingdom, I’ll be praying. Keep it coming with the testimonies! 🙏🏽

    That "sozo" stuff he mentioned is borderline new age! I'll never forget the time a person from sozo laid hands on me and wow my spirit rebuked it! I immediately took it to the cross and that following day God answered and confirmed why what is in me rejected that stuff..... It's mind blowing to see how the new age is slowly creeping into the church.

    I was 29 when my husband left me with 3 small children. I went into deep depression and was trying to raise kids, work and just function. Not sure why but I also felt shame in seeking help. Interestingly, God sent someone, I think he was an angel, I only seen him twice. Once when I brought my children to a little park. I was staring at nothing while the children played. He talked to me about my problems. It was some weeks later, I took the day off of work and went to the beach. As I lay in the sun, I cried for a long time and was thinking all I had to do was keep walking into the ocean to end it all. Of course I couldn't leave three small children with no one as my husband wasn't interested in even seeing his own children. As I was walking back to my car, the same man was sitting on a bench and asked me to sit down. He told me how much God loved me and how blessed I was. There were people going through things much worse. That was the last time I saw him. Eventually my mother went through a time of fasting and prayer for me and I was healed of the depression. It is a shame that we suffer when there is help out there.

    I take a pill too. I'm also on fire for the LORD and KNOW that my deliverance is coming soon..

    My husband is having major mental issues which landed him in jail recently. Please be praying for him. They are trying to find a diagnosis. I’m praying for a supernatural healing but I’m also praying for God to help him through the right medications.

    I have constantly felt guilty over not "trusting god" in healing me with my ssd and seeking treatment. At some point I would stop looking at a cochlear and wearing my hearing aid cause I felt shameful. Tysm for this message.

    I could cry because this what I have been dealing with and prayed to the Lord about.

    I smoked weed for 10 years. Took zoloft on and off for 5 years. My son was in the hospital for 28 days and I didn't have time to do anything. My son died, and God delivered me from both 🙏🏽 Be encouraged people.

    When I was at my lowest and thinking about suicide, I read a book by Daniel Amen about ADD, ADHD I figured out from the book which pills I should take. I went to my nurse practioner and told him to give me an ADD test (which he did), I told him what drugs I wanted to try based on what I learned from the book. He decided the dose and prescribed them. It worked! I took the pills for about 3 years. Then I missed an appointment and couldn't get my prescription. At that point I decided to make up my mind not to agree with depression but to take every thought captive (2 Corinthians 10:5,6) don't agree with every thought that runs through your head. I needed help to get me out of a bad situation, but at the right time I was able to overcome by practicing having the mind of Christ.

    I love you bro. Thank you for your testimony. Jesus delivered me from adderall, anti depressants, and panic attacks. Fasting/prayer really helps bro.

    Some of God's mightiest people have had their ups and downs, and have been in messy circumstances. Besides Jesus Himself, I don't think anyone's faith has been perfect, 100% of the time. I applaud this pastor for being real and I can tell he has a real, genuine relationship with the Lord. We should all learn as believers to show compassion towards one another instead of making blanket statements that can be detrimental to the body of Christ. We can learn from the book of Job and NOT be like Job's friends.

    I suffer from depression and anxiety and love God too. I have witnessed a person who couldn’t believe that I take anti anxiety pills and antidepressants even tho I believe so strongly in God. I told Him the same thing you did. Thank you for being a mouthpiece for God’s understanding and confirmation.
