Another way to avoid and to overcome despair, discouragement, despondency, and depression is to pray..... "Prayer in the hour of need is a great boon. From simple trials to our Gethsemanes, prayer—persistent prayer—can put us in touch with God, our greatest source of comfort and counsel. “Pray always, that you may come off conqueror.” (Doctrine and Covenants 10:5.) “Exerting all my powers to call upon God to deliver me” is how the young Joseph Smith describes the method that he used in the Sacred Grove to keep the adversary from destroying him. (Joseph Smith—H 1:16.) This is also a key to use in keeping depression from destroying us." - Ezra Taft Benson. "Do Not Despair". Ensign, October 1986
