New Muslim, struggling deeply with sadness
Assalamu alaikum, everyone. I’m quite new to Islam, and I’ve been feeling really heavy with depression. I’m a sister in my late 20s, and honestly, life feels overwhelming sometimes. Years ago, when I was in a relationship that wasn’t good for me, I first thought about taking my shahada. It took three years, but I finally said it. Alhamdulillah, my heart feels at peace with Allah, but I still carry so much emotional pain, and sometimes it even shows up physically. Does anyone know any hadiths that might help with depression? I’d be grateful for any advice.
