Hey you! Welcome to episode 8, in todays episode we will be discussing the importance of prioritizing your mental health & I will share with you some details from my personal mental health journey. For me personally, I was once in a constant battle between relying on God and seeking professional help for my depression and anxiety. As a christian it is hard to admit that sometimes we need additional help from outside resources aside from God. However, God will always show you the way he wants you to take, rely on him, trust in him, and follow his directions.
