This week’s The Forum on Life FM podcast is now online at lifefm.co.nz. I’m no expert on depression and mental health, but I feel that I learnt so much from our experts and callers on Sunday night. Heres three quick things I learnt: 1. It can be really unhelpful when people say someone struggling with depression just needs to pray more or have more faith in God. It can make the person feel like they have this condition because there’s something wrong with them as a person or as a Christian. 2. Clinical depression is a medical condition. We wouldn’t hesitate to try and get a physical health problem like a broken arm fixed, and a mental health issue shouldn’t be any different. 3. We shouldn’t try to face these things alone. It’s not weak to ask for help – it’s brave. And it can make a massive difference. As one of our experts said, “help helps”. There’s no shame in seeking help. -George
