It’s really comforting to think that Jesus dealt with anxiety and loneliness in His life. Even surrounded by followers and Disciples, He still felt alone in the world.

He foresaw all the sins of mankind, all He��d have to atone for through His Passion, and experienced so much anxiety and fear that He sweat drops of blood.

He lost His footing and fell down carrying the Cross. The Stations of the Cross cite three times He fell, but in reality it was far more than that. He needed help from a stranger, and one who, at first, dreaded having to aid Him at that.

He cried out in pain a few times and asked His Father why He had forsaken Him. He felt, even for a moment, a sense of despair and hopelessness.

After what I’ve gone through in the past month, it’s really comforting to think that Jesus felt what I did, He went through the feelings I went through, even as God Incarnate.

No matter what some Christians say, mental illness is not a sin. Anxiety is not “not trusting God enough,” depression is not “a lack of faith.” They are sufferings Christ Himself bore.

“‘This too shall pass.’ It’s something my grandmother would often say to my mother when she would worry over uncertainties or stressful moments. And it’s become something my mother says to me when I worry over similar things. And now, I say it to you: This too shall pass.”

— Maggie Dewane, “Managing and Maintaining Your Mental Health”
