"I’ve been diagnosed with a slew of mental health disorders, which have made it nearly impossible to hold down a job and even function in society. I’ve spent the last ~7 years in therapy and on medications, which have helped me tremendously. What kept me going this whole time was Jesus, though—even when I didn’t want him to. I’ve tried to take matters into my own hands, and I just can’t. We weren’t made to carry the world’s burdens on our shoulders. He’s ready to hold you and carry your burdens. He’s made this so clear to me—I just have to press into it now. Oh, and next month is one year at my job, and I passed the one-year mark of living alone this past February. You can do hard things! God’s got you. Always!"
