I just have so many unanswered questions!


Mental problems, "feeling" problems, are just as physical as a cough or a cold. God is no more "punishing you" than God gives you a cold or the flu. And sometimes he's just busy and has to prioritize. Maybe that's a message. A message to you that you need to get your friends and therapist to help you, that it's not serious enough for Him. You may feel really terrible, but you'd feel really terrible with a three-day grippe and at the same time know that it won't last forever. I'm a believer too, a believer with issues like yours, but I really think He wants me to fix myself and not leave it up to Him.
