Suicide Rate In Japan Still Climbing Despite Government Measures

  1. Hi Jane,
    I am a Christian that just read your blog about lossing your faith. I find it unfortunate that you don’t see God in the same light you use to. Maybe I can help you. Do you have any questions that have plagued you , that had weakend your faith. Just email me and I will try to find you an answer.
    I also suffered from depression when I was younger(25), it almost destroyed me. God was graceous and kept me alive. He was there for me, even when I felt really far from him. I suppose what I am saying is , that we put all our focus on the problems that are affecting us from others. In turn we start to get a negitive outlook on the world and people around us. When we fall into the trap, of a self absorbed state, it is hard to see what the real truth about things is.
    I hope this may help you a bit, and remember everyone needs prayer, even you. God Bless you with a good attitude and mentality, for hope that he is for us.
