Surviving Depression (Hermes)

Suffering with depression is always difficult. But when emotional vulnerability is mixed with uncertainty, anxiety, unexpected hardships and crisis, it can all be overwhelming. When we consider the feeling of utter emptiness, the collapse of the will to live, the devastating loss of self-worth that fills the heart of the person who lives with the heavy burden of depression or mental illness, Sr Kathryn Hermes understands and wants us to know that Jesus holds our tears as sacred, because Jesus also cried.
