Keithjoy, So good to hear from you. It has been a long time. I am glad to hear you are doing well. I, on the other hand have been in and out of the hospital and not doing well at all. But I do praise the Lord that some days are better than others. I keep hanging in there, knowing God has a plan for ...

This is so true. Satan can only work on our minds, and then only because if what comes out of our mouths. I know that every time I was put on anti-depressants, my thoughts would go from bad to worse, yet God was wuth me and protected me akk the time. I no longer use anti-depressants and am doing muc...

Very well put, Ms. T-Bones! You have a God given way of explaining things, keep it up and may you be blessed.

Girl Wisdom, Thanks for the reply, and I am sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. Yes, I am on oxygen. You were very wise to quit smoking when you did. This is no life. I cannot wear the patch, chew the gum, or use any ther stop smoking aids because of my medicnes and such. I amslowly trying to cut...

Beth, Thanks for your imput.I have had copd for about 7 years now, and sadly to say I still smoke. I know I have to quit but it is hard as my copd has progressed so much I can't do all the other things people do when they quit.

I sometimes find myself using medicne when it really isn't necessary. I don't like to overdo it with xanax eithe...

Ms. T Bones, I can't be sure how to distinguish a panic attack from an actual breathing episode.It kind of puts me in a bind sometimes. I have begun to think that part of it is either the breathing triggers the panic or the paic triggers the breathing. I have gotten through the first 2 cds and reall...

*D* Thanks for shainng. I took a giant step yesterday and decided I had been cooped up long enough and went to town with my sister-in-law. It was fun, except I ran out of oxygen! It is hard for me to tell the difference between panic attacks and my breathing disorder sometimes. I am glad to hear you...

Ms. T Bones, I am so sorry that you have had such bad news about your friend with cancer.I will certainly be praying for him, his family and of course you. It is difficult to loose those we love, but God knows best for all of us and loves us all. About your son, I understand what you mean when you s...

I'm just starting this course and would like some input and mentoring from a Christian. I have COPD and that compounds panick and anexity attacks. Thankyou
Mary
