Amazing news!

TL;DR version at the bottom.
As some of you know, I've been suffering from depression for several years. First diagnosed in 2006, but probably had it longer than that. Been on meds for a few years, but still been having problems with stuff frequently.
Anyway, Saturday evening, I was at an event at my local church, where a duet of sisters were singing. One of them talked about how she had suffered from depression for years, but was prayed for and was cured. I spoke to her after, told her my story as it was similar, and the two of them took me aside and prayed with/for me, that my depression would go. Well, I believe that their prayers were answered: I've felt ten times better since that evening than I have for many years! My mood has lifted, I've been feeling energised and enthusiastic and many other positive feelings and emotions I haven't really encountered for a long time.
Also, I have given up video games for Lent. I realised I have been playing them a lot (too much), and this will be giving me a lot more time to do other things.
As a result of no depression and no video games, I will be getting more things done that I should have been doing. I'm already done more towards finding a new job today than I had for weeks. I'm also going to do some more housework and finally unpack and sort out my stuff from when I moved into this place (still got many boxes of things untouched since I moved last May). Once I find my art supplies (sketchbooks, sketching pencils, Wacom tablet), I will also start drawing again, so expect to actually see some art by me in my gallery before too long!
If I draw enough of my own art, and deem it good enough, I may create a separate account and post it there instead of here, keeping this account for just the art of my characters that others draw.
Anyway, I think I've said enough for now. Thank you to those who have actually bothered to read the whole thing. Love you guys. <3
TL;DR: Depression gone! No video games for Lent. Art likely to follow, possible new account to go with it. :3
