- It helps us to feel more: Having a mental illness can make us more empathetic toward others and feel more deeply and be more compassionate
- It helps us help others: When we’ve come through the valley, we can tell our story to encourage others
- It helps us fear God: Our highs and lows can draw us closer to God when we call on Him through them
- It grows us: Our tough days can remind us that life isn’t easy but tough – and that toughness grows us
- It blesses us: It’s a blessing in disguise – gives us sensitivity to the energy and things unseen
- It humbles us: It reminds us we’re imperfect beings that need to rely on a perfect God for strength
