Be Ready to Listen To What Your Friends Have Gone Through

Everyone of us had different struggles face at the moment but not everyone has a brave heart to conquer those.
As I was reading some articles, I had come to my friend's article where she stated what she had gone through at the past months. She battled with her depression but good thing that there's someone who was ready to listen to her. Someone who let her express what she had felt. Someone who encourage her to fight not only for herself but also for her little princess. After expressing all those, she felt lighter and her mind was enlighted on what to do.
In battling with depression, it's really important to have someone who is there ready to listen to what we felt. It's good to know that there are few people who will not judge us for what we felt, instead they are their to support, encourage and uplift us when we needed someone to understand our feelings.
In times like this, a person who have experience depression can't think properly on what to do. His or her mind are clouded with so many negative thoughts that sometimes could lead them to end their life. I must say, it's not easy to be in this situation because I was once there. I had battled with depression after I gave birth to twins. When I had experienced it, no one was there for me. No one knew what I really felt inside. No one knew because I was always the one left at home. My other companions were so busy minding their own life that they didn't bother to check on me.
But despite being alone in that battle, I am thankful that I am able to conquer that undesirable feeling. I'm thankful that in those times I have God who strengthen my heart and mind. Honestly, when I was in depressed state, I had been thinking with some suicidal thoughts but God is so good that He didn't let me be defeated to it. He enlightened my mind on what's the right thing to do. He let me open my eyes to see that there are still more reasons to fight for my life.
Closing thoughts
Post-Partum Depression is not a joke, not acting either, it is REAL and one who had gone through it must not be judged instead show your support and be ready to listen to them. Having someone ready to listen and understand them is already a big thing.
To all moms who had been through depression, know that you are not alone in that battle. Find someone whom you can talk to and pray always to God to strengthen your heart and mind to be able to fight and win against it.
To all husbands who have a wife who have gone through this, please show your love, care, support, and understanding to them. That's what they really need to feel that there's someone who will always be there for them, especially in that trying times in their life.
To someone who have friends that experience this, be ready to open your ears to what they are going to say. Your understanding and words of encouragement will matter to them. You might be someone who will be able to save them in that situation.
To my dearest sponsors, thank you so much for staying with me.
