Step 1. Realize that depression is not a sin but a symptom. The way we respond to depression may be sinful, but the emotion itself is not. Sin may lead to depression, but all depression does not come from sin. Depression is like a warning light on a vehicle. The way to turn off the warning light is not to smash it out, but to find the problem. When depression sets in, something deep inside is usually wrong.
第一,要知道抑郁并非是罪而只是一种症状。我们对待抑郁的方式也许是有罪的,但抑郁的情绪本身并不是。罪可能会导致抑郁,但所有的抑郁并非是来自罪。抑郁就像车上的警示灯一样。要关闭警示灯不是把它砸碎而是找到出问题的地方。当抑郁降临的时候,通常都在暗示内心出现问题了。

Step 2. Restore your physical body. “Then he (Elijah) lay down under the tree and fell asleep. All at once an angel touched him and said, ‘Get up and eat’ “ (I Kings 19:5). God’s remedy involves rest, food, and relaxation. We must never forget the role our bodies play in our emotions. Some people consistently neglect themselves physically. You should get sufficient rest, eat a balanced diet, and exercise regularly.
第二,调整身体状态。“他就躺在罗腾树下睡着了。有一个天使拍他,说;‘起来吃吧’“(列王记上19:5)神的疗法中包括休息,饮食和放松。我们必须时刻牢记我们的身体在情绪上所起的作用。但有些人一贯都不重视他们的身体。你应该得到足够的休息,平衡饮食并定期锻炼。

Step 3. Relinquish your frustration to God. The Lord asked, “What are you doing here, Elijah?” Elijah replied, ‘I have been very zealous for the Lord God Almighty. The Israelites have rejected your covenant, broken down your altars, and put your prophets to death with a sword. I am the only one left, and now they are trying to kill me too’ “ (I Kings 19:9-10). Elijah blew off steam to God and poured out his inner feelings. God allowed Elijah to vent his frustrations without condemning or criticizing him. Regardless how bad our circumstances seem, we should never stop communicating with God. Share your heart. You don’t have to be eloquent or creative; just let God know how you feel. Relinquishing your frustration brings a cleansing of all that has been pushed down inside of you and created these negative emotions.
第三,把你的沮丧交托给神。主问:“以利亚啊,你在这里做什么?”以利亚回答说:“我为耶和华万军之神大发热心;因为以色列人背弃了你的约,毁坏了你的坛,用刀杀了你的先知,只剩下我一个人,他们还要寻索我的命。”(列王记上19:9-10)以利亚把他内心的感受一股脑都倒给了神。神也允许以利亚发泄他的沮丧而没有批评或是定他的罪。不论我们的境况看起来有多么糟糕,敞开你的心。你不必巧舌如簧或者具有创造性,只需要让神知道你的感受。交出你的沮丧能让内心的阴暗情绪和垮掉的一切得到清洁和净化。

Step 4. Refresh your awareness of God’s presence. “The Lord said, ‘Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord’ “(I Kings 19:11). Nothing will refresh you like coming into the presence of God and realizing he loves and cares for you regardless of how you feel. God never promised this life would be happy, but he did promise to go with us through all our pain. If you are depressed, spend time alone with your Bible and God. As you read, allow God to speak to you and love you. There is no greater antidepressant than communication and fellowship with God.
第四,激活与神同在的意识。主说:“你出来站在山上,在我面前。”(列王记上19:11)来到神的面前,明白无论我们的感受如何他都爱我们关心我们,唯有如此才会使我们焕然一新。神从来没有应允此生是快乐的,但他的确许诺他会陪同我们一道历经艰难险阻。如果你觉得沮丧,花时间与圣经和神在一起吧。当你阅读的时候,让神对你说话和爱你。没有比与神沟通、与神建立友谊更棒的康抑郁药了。

Step 5. Redirect your life. God gave Elijah a new assignment. “Go back the way you came, and go to the Desert of Damascus. When you get there, anoint Hazael king over Aram” (I Kings 19:15). The fastest way to defeat depression is to quit drowning in self-pity. Take your eyes off yourself and start looking at the needs of others. Find people who are less fortunate and invest your life in them. When you give yourself to others, God will give to you. Jesus said, “Whosoever loses his life for me will find it” (Matthew 16:25).
第五,重新开始生活。神给了以利亚一个新的指示“你回去,从旷野往大马士革去。到了那里,就要膏哈薛作亚兰王”(列王记上19:15)。对付抑郁最快速的方法就是放弃沉溺在自怜中。把视线移离自己并开始关注他人的需要。寻找那些生活不太顺利的人并把你的生命投入其中。当你把自己奉献给他人时,神就会给你。耶稣说:“凡为我丧掉生命的,必得着生命”(马太福音16:25)。

Step 6. Renew a friendship. “So Elijah went from there and found Elisha son of Shaphat” (I Kings 19:19). Depressed people need true friends. Don’t battle depression alone. Find a friend who will provide support and encouragement; someone who will help you see circumstances as they are, not as you perceive them. Eugene Kennedy said, “The main business of friendship is to sustain and make bearable each other’s burdens.” Christ can lift you out of depression. He can help you. He can heal you. You don’t have to stumble through life depressed!
第六,重新开始一段友谊。“于是,以利亚离开那里走了,遇见沙法的儿子”(列王记上19:19).抑郁的人需要真正的朋友。你无需独自对抗抑郁。找一个朋友,他会给与你支持和鼓励,他会帮助你看清事情的本来面目而非你所以为的样子。Eugene Kennedy 说:“友谊这事儿主要就是分担彼此的重担,给予你支持。”耶稣可以让抑郁烟消云散,他会帮助你,治愈你。你不必抑郁着走过跌撞的人生!
