For me definitely helped, although I believe that it is about how easy is for the person to allow his unconscious wounds to be revealed. Some of us's inner child suffered so much and learned to protect itself by dissasociation or or other ways of staying safe that it is very hard to accept that it's safe to grieve and to let go. Trying different things can help a lot in this

I beleive that there is many ways that is helpful. And I can personally say I don't think I would be on this earth still if it wasn;t for God and his devine help. I would tell you to pray about this and look for the answers. God wroks in Great ways!

I was living in Berlin in college as an exchange student. I was so, so depressed. It felt like an unending heavy weight. As it got heavier and heavier, I decided to kill myself. Part of you wants to do it and another weaker part does not and the weak part is scared out of its mind that the strong part will succeed. The plan was to walk down to the train station/stop--there are lots of those in Berlin--and throw myself in front of a train. I remember praying that I would not do that to myself. And suddenly it was if a giant hand grabbed me. That was the picture I saw in my mind. And I couldn't move. And I felt perfect peace. It made no sense. And I didn't kill myself. There could be a medical/psychological explanation for that, but I generally lead to the higher power.

If I didn't have my faith I would be dead
