Connect Episode 31; Unraveling the Mystery of Depression: A Faith-Based Perspective
Description
Imagine waking up every day with a heavy cloud of sadness, hopelessness, and utter misery. That's the reality for over 200 million people diagnosed with depression worldwide, including 1.9 million Kenyans. In the course of this profound conversation with Linus Oyugi, we attempt to peel back the layers of depression, revealing its many faces from major depressive disorder to bipolar disorder. Linus offers valuable insights into recognizing unique symptoms and debunking prevalent misconceptions, including the misguided belief that depression is a sin.
In the backdrop of this enlightening discourse, we turn to faith, drawing hope and reassurance from Psalms 34 and 18. The rich words of wisdom embodied in these scriptures remind us that God understands our innermost feelings in our moments of distress. As we navigate the complexities of mental health, we shed light on how faith can be a beacon in dark times. And for those who thirst for knowledge or seek further understanding of mental health, we offer an array of resources to equip you. Join us in this essential discussion that seeks to unravel the mystery of depression, encouraging empathy, understanding, and hope.
