For the past 3 months I've had one of my only connections to those I trust most gone. In 3 months I underwent a lifetime worth of isolation and despair, watching as the bonds within my family became poisoned and dissipated. I communicated my true feelings and frustrations to my mother, the one I thought would at least begin to understand and wish to comfort me, but what I got was watching all those feelings fly over her head. Having recently regained my connection to those I cherish I discovered I still hold a lot of bitterness from all that, as well as many scars that must heal. However, along with the hurt, my time alone has made me stronger, more appreciative and focused in my intent. Along with all that, came the knowledge that when life is at it's absolute worst, then the absolute best is just within reach.

Now I ask all of you, what has you lowest moment brought to you?

Sorry it's been a while sis ....

My lowest moment was SERIOUSLY considering suicide when 7th grade ended for me. What it brought to me was accepting Jesus which not only saved my soul, but also my life.

My second lowest moment was when my ex-husband almost broke my neck. That was a long time ago and I still am in pain every day .... it's brought humbleness to me ..... the extreme need to change and get rid of ANY dysfunction in my life .... patience, and particularly, learning how to take care of myself since I always put others first to the detriment of myself.

*phew* It's been rough .... but God is good and I fell better every year. I hope, pray, and desire for Him to COMPLETELY heal me ... I look forward to that day!!

My lowest... there are always moments you wished at the time you didn't have to go through, but after-- yea, who would you be, where would you be without them.

My lowest 'series' of events was when I was 10-14 going to different schools and not getting along with anybody.

And the isolation of being homeschooled... that was a bad idea. X/

But I look back on it, and I knwo what peer pressure might have made me into, as I desperately wanted to fit in.

Also, being lonely taught me to value the company of others, and treat each person I come accross as respectfully as possible without letting them change me.

I think that sums up most of it. I'll post more later If I can thin of it. 3nodding

My lowest times...

1996. My father died that year.

2001. I moved from Canada to the US and was depressed for a while.

2005. I started having bad thoughts....

Late 2007. LONGEST spiritual depression of my entire life. It's not over.

To be honest, I have considered suicide several times in my life. But not truly...if that makes any sense. The 2001 move and this current spiritual struggle have been the worst. Both times I thought it would be better to be dead, or never born. I didn't feel that way when my dad died...I think I was just too young.

Lisa, I see what you're saying about the homeschooling. I was home school for a year. That too was a mistake. I was lonely as well. Did you see any benefit to being home schooled?
