Single-Mindedness

June 3, 2007 at 11:15 pm (Depression, Mental Health, Mental Illness)

I was talking to my wife today and realized that when dealing with issues, I am rather single-minded. I can’t deal with more than one problem at a time. It’s hard for me to focus on both my health and my spirituality, while my health is a primary concern. Unfortunately, this means that my spirituality suffers. I wish I had the capability to deal with some of both simultaneously. Maybe its possible, but I haven’t found a way yet.

When I have too many things going on, I feel out of control. I get stressed. I get depressed. The spiral gets worse.

Maybe I need to trust God more and let him help me deal with depression and my health. Then I may be able to work on both at the same time. Hmmm…. This might be the answer.
