Too Broken?

Sometimes I feel like I am too broken mentally and spiritually to be fixed. Don't get me wrong, I love when people have success stories about a therapy that works or they have found themselves overcome a huge obstacle etc. and I haven't given up on therapy, for I feel there maybe a little hope there but I feel that I may be one of the few that are too broken to repair and wonder what is the point. I know that this is a symptom of depression however, sometimes it feels so real and that I don't have a future at all. I am a broken soul. :(
 
Depression is a Thief. A major thief. It steals joy, hope, passion, and everything else good. But it can't steal support from you - I hope you have one of the good therapists out there to walk with you through this. I hear you struggling to stay in the part of you that feels the hope. I feel the hope for you too.
 
I am a broken soul
No you're not a broken soul. You are mending soul. If you were broken you wouldn't even be worried about the future. You would have no feeling, no emotions.

You are a mending soul, still searching for the appropriate healing modality for yourself. Sometimes it comes through therapy, sometimes through alternative healing methods, sometimes through people that come into your life, and sometimes on your own. You have all of the tools within you to figure out which one is your healing path. Trust your inner voice. No fear. With trust, I truly believe that . . . . . the path of your healing will be revealed and opened up to you. My prayers are with you, Rising . . . . . . . . .
 
In 1989 I suffered a badly broken ankle. Now, most of the time when a person breaks a bone it takes six to eight weeks to heal. I was in a cast for almost seven months. I still get reminders of the break with changing weather and such, but the ankle is remarkable good
Why am i mentioning this? Sometimes we get broken so badly it just takes longer to heal, but we eventually do heal. We will have reminders of our brokenness, but over all we will be remarkably better than we were when we first became broken.
Hang in there; you will get better
