0Depression: it's a condition that affects more people than we think, in mild to debilitating ways. For author Teniola Onabanjo, depression crept into her life through a significant childhood experience. In her new book, Dethroning Depression, Teniola shares how depression became her "companion". To hide her pain, Teniola turned to the temporary pleasure of charting her own path, finding that she found fleeting happiness from what this option offered. It wasn't until she came to the feet of Jesus and asked Him back into her heart that she felt God remove the hold depression had on her for seven years: depression that had given her suicidal thoughts, multiple breakdowns, and being committed to a psychiatric hospital. The prompting of God while on a prayer walk led Teniola to realize her experiences could help others struggling to overcome depression, while finding solace in the arms of Jesus. Dethroning Depression is broken down into seven chapters, relating the importance of nutrition, self-care, fitness, and realizing the need for one to have a thriving relationship with God. Teniola wants readers to know that Satan can use depression to convince believers they don't have divine purposes from God and not worth anything to anyone. Believe her; she knows this truth personally that Satan can cause this harm. But like she removed the strongholds of depression by allowing God to take it from her, others can experience the same joy and freedom when they allow God to enter their hearts. Don't allow depression the power to take away your self-worth; believe instead in God's purpose for you!
