Will anything help?

This is my first online attempt and first thread ever. I feel like I'm running out of options. I have pleaded to God, asked Him for forgiveness when told my depression was a sin, tried counseling, tried medication. Nothing seems to help and I am so tired....,,

I've never heard that depression is a sin. That's terrible to hear that someone has been told that, I don't mean to digress however. If through prayer, medication, and counseling you have still found no solace, maybe your "problem" is a little bit more in your control than you realize. Imagine what you would need your life to be like, in order to be happy again. Strive for that, take actual proactive measures.

If it is related to monetary issues, spend less and save more. If it's something else, deal with it directly. Sometimes in our lives we let small things build up and they become stressors, we push them back so far we lose sight of the origin and our lives clutter up with anxiety, and things we can't remember why we're even stressed about, and this sometimes leads to a depression. I'm not trying to evaluate you either, I'm just offering food for thought.

I sincerely hope the best for you, you cannot stop, no matter the trial. You can beat this situation, these feelings, and be as happy as you want to be.
