Everyone experiences anxiety, depression, and other difficult emotions. So how do we know if it’s more than that? Who can help guide us to determine if our experience is an actual mental illness? And why is it harder to feel God’s love when I struggle emotionally? Kyle Bradford Jones, MD answers these and other questions in this critical primer for teenagers and their parents who are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
Dr. Jones explores multiple mental illnesses, including their origins, treatments, and how they relate to our relationship with Jesus Christ, in an understandable and often entertaining way. Mental illness is not the result of a lack of faith or gratitude, nor does it mean that God hates you. The most important message from this book is that Jesus loves you no matter what, always and forever!
