About me:

Lexy

As someone who survived being suicidal for over 10 years, I was called by the Holy Spirit to start speaking about mental health and faith. Create Compassion began as a way I could inspire and reach others who are going through similar struggles with mental illness, anxiety, depression, and suicidal intentions.

I suffer with bipolar disorder. It has brought me closer to Christ. Through Him, I have found peace and am no longer suicidal. However, I still struggle with depression and manic anxiety. It’s all part of a physical illness with mental symptoms. God has healed me from the hardest parts, but He hasn’t cured me. It’s like that for most people. God only heals fully when it’s a part of His will. If He can still use our mental illnesses for good, He’ll help us to survive, overcome, and change the world.

We can do better as Christians for those suffering with mental illness. It’s time to talk about the truth and not live in ignorance.
