7 Easy Hacks to fight anxiety and depression as a Christian in 2025

In this video, I open up about one of the hardest seasons of my life — when anxiety and depression nearly broke me. Back in March 2020, I hit rock bottom. But in that dark place, God met me. And today, I’m sharing the 7 real, practical steps that helped me fight back, find peace, and rebuild my joy through faith.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, worn out, or hopeless, I made this video for you.

Here’s what I walk you through:

✔️ How I reflect on past challenges to build spiritual confidence

✔️ Why leaning on my support system gave me strength

✔️ How physical movement + worship helped shift my mindset

✔️ Why serving others became one of my biggest breakthroughs

✔️ The Bible verses I run to when anxiety shows up

✔️ How therapy + spiritual counsel saved me

✔️ And most importantly… how trusting God's plan changed everything for me

📸 At the end, I reveal a photo from the lowest point in my life (you can see the photo on my youtube channel) —and how far God has brought me since then. If He can do it for me, I know He can do it for you too.

💬 Let’s be real. Mental health is a battle. But you don’t have to fight it alone—and you’re not too far gone. God still has a plan for your life.
