Why we should not let life get us down.

If I was going to title this post I would have to name it Why we should not let life get us down.
As I reflect on this day, overall it was not too bad. I started my day at work and I had 2 groups. One group just dealt with classes that helped the clients as they have been in the program. The other group was on Problem Solving skills. When I have the next group on Monday for this particular one will be on 2 types of problems we face as individuals.

 In your face problems- Problems where you have to take immediate action. Someone bumps into you, someone pulls a knife or someone just want to argue.

2.       Time to think problems- Situations where you don’t have to take immediate action. Bills, job and where you are going to live.

As a believer I know God is taking care of all my problems and needs in my life. There are so many of my friends that are hurting, also. One friend is dealing with severe health issues and has been unable to work, she also has no income coming in. 

One thing as I get older I realize we all have a story. We all have had to face different situations. Some emotional and some trauma. I was talking to someone today that I believe that a lot of people suffer in silence. You cannot get well if you do this. You must talk to someone about what is bothering you, or you will never get well. We need to also I believe have a relationship with God. God truly is the one who can heal us and help us go on from day to day.

Cornwall Council’s Health Promotion Service is helping to raise awareness of depression as part of this year’s National Depression Awareness Week, which runs from April 28 to May 23.

Depression is a medical condition which people often struggle with in silence, and is frequently undiagnosed, due to people’s reluctance to seek help. It is estimated that there are 90,000 people in Cornwall suffering from a common mental disorder, usually anxiety, depression or both. It is difficult to give accurate figures, though national research suggests that around 16 per cent of adults are affected.

My friend today there is plenty of help out there and there is no need for you to suffer. Please use the resources that are available to you.Don't let life beat you down. You can survive. You can overcoe anything with the right help.
