One other comment though and something I've had to learn to do is to say, "NO" to some things. Which I guess returns me back to #6. Theresa #6 says it all!

I believe discussing this once taboo subject will give opportunity for the Gospel of our Lord Jesus to bring healing and peace to many who kept in bondage by depression and anxiety. Yours in Christ, Mark I praise the Lord and thank you for your book and blog.

Thank the Lord that through the Lord's grace, a loving-longsuffering-grace-filled wife, a extremely supportive and patience congregation at the time (which I served from 1990-2004) and some helpful medication (Zoloft-a serotonin reuptake inhibitor), I have been much, much healthier and happier. I am in the midst of reading your monograph and finding it to be a blessing. I too have found that depression has opened many doors to ministry and mission. One comment on this part of your blog: I was introduced to a "productivity" approach by another pastor which has been very helpful. While the creator, David Allen, is not a Christian, his approach is mainly about process. It is called Getting Things Done (which you can google). Very practical stuff that syncs nicely with your above "tips" Dear Brother Todd,
