I (N EIL ) REMEMBER COUNSELING a young Christian who was in deep spiritual, mental, and emotional confusion. At one point before I began meeting with her, she wrote the following prayer, then ten minutes later tried unsuccessfully to kill herself with an overdose of pills:

Dear God,

Where are you? How can you watch and not help me? I hurt so bad, and you dont even care. If you cared youd make it stop or let me die. I love you, but you seem so far away. I cant hear you or feel you or see you, but Im supposed to believe youre here. Lord, I feel them and hear them. They are here. I know youre real, God, but they are more real to me right now. Please make someone believe me, Lord. Why wont you make it stop? Please, Lord, please! If you love me youll let me die.

A Lost Sheep

We have met hundreds of young Christians like the one who wrote this sad note. Most of them didnt attempt suicide as this one did, but many of them talked about dark desires to do so. And nearly all of them admitted to the presence of theminner urges or voices that bothered them, tempted and taunted them, accused them, or threatened them.

The fact that people struggle with negative or opposing thoughts is well accepted. We often caution young people who make appointments to talk with us that they may have opposing thoughts such as, Dont go; they cant help you. Or distracting thoughts will pop into their minds, such as, I dont want to go or Ive tried this before and it didnt work. One person wrote to Neil: Every time I try to talk to you, or even think about talking to you, I completely shut down. Voices inside literally yell at me: No! Ive even considered killing myself to end this terrible battle going on inside. I need help!
