26th Street, Apt. Greetings to everyone in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Ministers and their families are not immune from it.
Depression disorders cause a lot of grief and misunderstandings among family members.
I speak from experience. I suffer from manic depression. It's also an opportunity for the enemy to sabotage any and all positive feedback we may receive from doctors, family, and friends, not to mention the Lord. I'm under a physician's care for manic depression, and am taking prescribed medication that keeps me functioning on a stable level of competency, thought, and action. I thank God for the Christian doctor I have, and my wife and children who know when I'm undergoing a bout with this thing.
