I too sometimes go through phases similar to the ones you describe, it usually lasts for a few days. It is difficult to pull myself out of it, almost as if someone else is in charge. But I do find that looking at the world in a negative light is a choice...we can CHOOSE to look at the world in a completely positive light. Life is a tremendous blessing, and death is also a blessing, so is illness and suffering (though we must seek the protection of Allah from it), in all conditions a Muslim is blessed, if they accept it without complaint.

We need to train our thoughts and mind, refuse to look at negative things, do not watch TV, avoid negative people and work on your self, be strong minded, speak to yourself, be a coach, tell yourself like a coach would, I will not allow you to look at the world negatively...we are not living in a meaningless universe, humans are the greatest of Allahs creation, our sins and our perception of them makes us grow closer to Allah swt, we do tawba to an All-Forgiving Lord, who loves people who repent. Never allow your thoughts to think bad thoughts about Allah, just refuse and affirm the good, Insha-Allah it will pass, and if it returns in the future you will be strong enough to fight it.



Assalamu 'alaykum wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh,

I am new here, and I am happy to have found this forum, but I am also unhappy bcuz of my depression:

I've been obssessed with waswasah for almost three montsh wich made my life a trash, hamdulilah now I've learned to ignore them but I haven't learnt yet how to deal with my depression: I can't stop feeling guilty and I am afraid I will burn in hell forever, I just can't stop thinking about it, I try to remember to myself that I must be strong and faithfull in Allah's mercy but my depression is stronger then me, I feel like I can't live anymore but I neither wanna die bcuz I am afraid of hell.. I am taking drugs and I wonder if it is halal in Islam?

however I must change my medication as they don't make me feel better!
I even wanted to take a cognitive therapy by a psycologist but here where I live I can't find a Muslim one!

What do you advise me to do?
I know there are many like me, and that you may be tired to respond always to the same question, but I feel so lonely as I don't have nobody who I can talk to..

Please, please, make du'a for me because I feel like my heart is overwhelmed by guilty and pain and I don't know what to do in order to feel better!

Please ask Allah to love me, I feel like I am a bad person and like I don't deserve his love, this hurts me so much.. I don't know how to change my feeling and how to control them, I've tried many times in many ways but at the ent I am always the same!

may Allah reward you for your patience and dua's. Jazak Allahu khair!
