06:06a few bites and i stood up i went to the room came back tried to eat stood up and stood in the kitchen
06:13and i stood there i started hearing voices run run and another voice would say to me no don't run
06:22and i would hear another voice scream another voice don't scream i was very confused i felt i'm losing my
06:29mind and at night insomnia i don't sleep i remember one day i slept around nine o'clock and i woke up
06:39with this uh torment of suicidal thoughts i checked the time how long i've been sleeping it was quarter
06:46past nine i slept only 15 minutes and that that made me very afraid at night i would wake up drink
06:54water i can't lay still on my bed and at the same time i can't sleep so i'm just sitting on my bed till
07:00the next morning and these suicidal thoughts whenever i'm walking on a bridge something very
07:08high out here jump if i see a car jump in front of the car i would have thoughts like if i had a gun
07:17i'll shoot myself so i couldn't understand because i never in my life i'm 41 years old never in my life
07:24have i gone through anything like this one day my boss came to visit because he is in johannesberg
07:31and he said to me david i want to buy a truck can you please accompany me so you can assist with the
07:38selection of the truck i left with him we went to the company where they sell the trucks and they packed
07:44four trucks next to electric wire electric fence and as he was looking at these trucks he kept saying
07:50david is this because i was under serious depression so i'm agreeing to everything he's
07:54saying i'm not even giving my input so when every time he says david is this one nice i say yes yes
07:58it's nice this one i think david this one is better i would agree with him yes i think it's better
08:03and then i i held on to um a live electric wire which electrocuted me very well and when it
08:13when it electrocuted me i screamed and i jumped off and he looked at me and said david
08:18what happened did you get shocked i said yes and he said to me are you awake now so i didn't even
08:23realize that my boss noticed that there's something wrong with me then i decided no no no no no i need
08:30god's intervention i reached out um to brother chris i sent a prayer request explaining everything i'm
08:38going through the depression insomnia anxiety i can't sleep and i joined interactive prayer
08:48that was in in april i joined the interactive prayer during the interactive prayer i didn't form it
08:57didn't manifest but i felt the love of god and after he prayed for me for everyone including myself
09:07i started to experience something marvelous the suicide thoughts were there depression was there
09:15anxiety was there but i started feeling this joy and love as if someone is just pouring it on me
09:22every time i hear the voice of suicide and depression and anxiety this love keeps increasing so much
09:33that i felt is quenching or shutting out the voice of depression the voice of anxiety the voice of
09:41suicide thoughts and i started studying it i realized that anytime i focus and think about this suicide
09:50thoughts and depression and anxiety they they dominate me i they become so much but when i focus on this
09:57love and joy they are dying down then i said to my wife ah since the prayer i'm feeling this joy and love
10:05this awesome and focus to this love this suicide thoughts this depression they are dying down
10:15then i i i started to change my focus i'm i'm reading my bible i start to think of heavenly things
10:22every time i i i i force my mind think of heavenly things think meditate on the word of god the more i do it
10:31the more the suicide thoughts were dying down the more depression was going down the more um anxiety
10:37was going down and then insomnia vanished completely i was able to sleep after some time the suicide
10:44thoughts died down completely i was left with um depression and also it was it was not heavy and then
10:53during the crossover service brother chris said something if god has removed something in your life has
10:58done a miracle in life don't wait until everything is gone testify send that testimony of what god has
11:07done for you i said to myself okay i'm still feeling depression but insomnia is gone suicide thoughts

11:18after i sent my testimony of suicide thoughts within a few days depression disappeared completely
11:27and today i am here suicidal thoughts free depression free no more insomnia no more anxiety i am back to
11:37my normal self by the grace of god and my relationship with god just went to another level i've learned to
11:44trust in god i've learned to leave it all for god um i was put in a corner where i had to
11:50um exercise faith because i knew after some point of going in and out of hospitals and doctors i came to
12:00a a very heavy realization that no human can help me i have to start um acting faith um whether i like it or
12:11not that was just one thought that was for jesus only and that just took my relationship with god to the next
12:20level grace and peace to you all as he already explained everything it was scary it was terrible at first he
12:31didn't tell me he went through it alone but as a wife i noticed that something was wrong because i was
12:38seeing someone else in him someone that i didn't recognize his eyes just changed and him doing up and
12:49down not to be able to sit still that part was scaring me because i'll be watching him not knowing what
12:57he was going through he's the one who's always strong who will be able to take care of me when i'm not
13:04well but at that point i felt helpless because i didn't know how to go about it i didn't know how
13:12to help him he went through it um for some time and then he explained himself to me what he was going
13:23through i was so scared i remember i was standing on a stove cooking i just closed my eyes and said please
13:30god help me to know how to take care of him help me to be there for him as he always is for me on on
13:42that same january when this thing started him going in and out to doctors to clinics to hospitals he will
13:52go out not telling me where he's going he'll just take the key and go out when he comes back he comes back
14:00with plastic he bought things that are not needed he was spending like it was not normal for him to do
14:09that one day he's at the doctor the next is the day at the clinic at the day of hospital even i remember
14:17there was this specific day i think it was around nine and he just stood up i asked him where are you
14:25going he said i'm going to day hospital i'm like but it's nine o'clock you can't go there
14:30there and he was like i'm going and then i i let him go he was updating me all the time when he was
14:39there and then eventually he came back when he came back the following day he was like i'm going to the
14:47doctor i'm like i i didn't know how to help him i didn't know i didn't even know to stop him like what
14:56you're doing is wrong because i knew that he was going through something so he spent all our savings
15:03by the grace of god he's himself he's normal he's even gained weight because during that he lost so
15:12much weight but now he's back to his normal self and everything is okay and we
15:19need we we socialize and we share everything by the grace of god before my advice i'd like to say i am a
15:28god's hat tv partner and i would like to encourage the viewers all over the world that all of this is
