Depression and child abuse. Depression does not just come from when you have been abused,  but there can be a lot of different reasons why you might be depressed and  is often caused by events in your past. If  you have been abused as a child is one of the worst things because it happens to you when you are the most vulnerable and can cause a deep despair.

Depression and child abuse

My Story about when I spoke about my abuse

She helped me, by listening to how I was feeling and maybe you can find someone who you can feel safe with and very at ease with to confined in because the abuse is a very sensitive topic and you need someone who is very understanding.

Depression from being abused as a child can stop you doing every day chores like getting like

:1) Getting dressed for work.

2) Washing yourself.

3) Even having breakfast.

4)If you are just sitting in front of the television and can make you feel worthless and negative about how you are feeling because you are not doing anything else that is positive.

There is nothing wrong with the television but there is when you do not do anyhting every single day.

Depression: Support.

I have written this web site to help you and this also helps me.

They know that I suffer from depression and I wanted to share this with you. They all give me encouragement which you need as well. Joyce Meyer was abused as well and she has written books on depression which I use and they would also help you.

You may feel that the abuse you suffered from makes you feel totally stuck and that there is nowhere to go to and no one to turn to.

You might feel lost and very alone and that there is no one who understands you. Actually I do know how you feel because I have felt the same way and you are not alone.

Isolation.

People who have been abused as children will be feeling isolated and very alone like you and me I know exactly how you feel as I have been there myself before.

You are not alone and you can overcome your depression.  It just takes time and the first step is for you to be aware and acknowledge that you are suffering from depression.

There is a page on self help for you which I use. My old therapist showed me how to start healing and I wanted to share this with you. I want to help you from your depression.

 Having Faith.

I found that having God and Jesus in my life.  They are always holding my hand, and being very close in my mind and soul without all their guidance I have would be feeling alone. I suggest that you use all the help offered and help yourself too.

Being abused as a child does take a very long time to heal and you need to take one step at a time and talk to people. Never feel and alone write down everything that you are feeling and make sure you are looking after yourself because you are a very special person.
