my parents try to say the same thing, and i unfortunately have my pastor on my news feed, and he often posts things about mental illness like he knows anything about it, saying that only God can give you the help you need, and it really pisses me off. my pastor is cool and all, but if he EVER says anything to me personally or posts on my wall he's going to get it big time.

i hate it when people say this kind of stuff to me. if they knew what it was like to feel this way, they probably wouldn't be going on about how God is the answer.

maybe it helps some people, praying and all, but others, not so much.
