How Long Will Ye Choose Darkness Rather Than Light?

                     Helaman 13:29
"O ye wicked and ye perverse generation; ye hardened and ye stiffnecked people, how long will ye suppose that the Lord will suffer you? Yea how long will ye suffer yourselves to be led by foolish and blind guides? Yea, how long will ye choose darkness rather than light?"

Today I was reading through some of my notes from an LDS Institute Class. The notes on this specific verse caught my attention. Why? They caught my attention because the things I wrote to go with this verse feels like it is starting to apply to my life once again.

To paraphrase my notes I specifically was looking at the last sentence: "how long will ye choose darkness rather than light?" This is a question that I often ask myself, because I have depression. The answer that I came up with is that I don't want to be in the darkness, but I also don't know how to get back into the light.
