There are so many people who are dangerously depressed.
There are 1.5 million people in England with metal illness, like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, personality disorder, without be aware of it. They go through life not knowing they are ill, they have been thrown out by society like rubbish, they land up on the street. Mental illness cost the nation an estimated 33 billion a year. The world health organisation's reports that depression, which effects people's ability to care for themselves will be the second most common underlying cause of death in the world by 2020 . And when I became very ill with depression, I started to write poems and God used my writing to touch others that now I pray for people in hospitals and read my poems to them and it touches them, deep down inside, so God speaks through my poems to them, who are sick and there are a lots of tears and healing in them. So there is hope and laughter and joy in this life. |
