Hi Clint -
Having dealt with crippling depression myself, for 25 years, I do understand the spiraling despondency that you describe... I lived it too.
But, you didn't answer my question -- have you worked with your TPM facilitator while you're feeling "blocked" by the hopelessness?
The hopelessness is based upon a lie (because with Him, there is always hope!), and TPM works by having Jesus go to the lie, and replacing it with His truth... once the lie of "I'm hopeless" is replaced with His truth about yourself, the rest of the stuff is easily dealt with (again, by having Him address the lies, and then providing His truth).
I've been free of bulimia for over 5 years, and free of depression and antidepressants for over 3 years now. I know what it's like to live with the dark cloud of hopelessness, and I now know what it's like to live a life infused with hope...
The truth really does set us free...!
Shalom, Dena
