You can turn to scripture to help pull you out of depression

Depression is a state of unhappiness and hopelessness - a psychiatric disorder manifested by persistent feelings of dejection, lack of energy, poor concentration and sometimes suicidal thoughts. There are many causes of depression such as trauma or hormonal imbalance. Since I am not a medical doctor, I will approach this issue from a biblical perspective and give practical ways of dealing with it regardless of the cause.

Depression is not a respecter of persons and can afflict anybody irrespective of their background, social status or race. Great leaders such as Winston Churchill, Abraham Lincoln and Charles Spurgeon suffered from depression. One psychologist termed it as 'the common cold of emotional health'. Several men of God in the Bible battled depression including Moses, King David, and Elijah among others.
