Re: OVERCOMING OBSESSIVE HARMFUL THINKING
That's awesome Ropersue! So glad to hear that you were able to hand it over to God. Great advice on this thread! So much of the key to getting over these thought is just recognizing them for what they are. Then you take their power away!

It's all about addressing those thoughts and how to handle them, so naturally, your bain will look for them! And it is especially harder when you have something happen that triggers whatever your worst anxio...

Re: Trying to stay safe from hell
Hi Lynda, I can relate to that, I remember when my anxiety was really bad I felt like something was wrong with me, like I was separated from God somehow. But the Bible tells us that God loves us. Have you asked Him to give you that sense of peace you are looking for? God is ready to give it to you! ...

Re: Fear of dropping dead
This thread has some great advice! SO glad to hear you've made an appointment with a naturopath, that's awesome! You should give yourself a pat on the back just for that. :) Recovery is made up of a variety of factors being in place - emotional (thoughts), physical (biochemical), spiritual, time man...

Re: Fear of dropping dead
Hi Joe, You should be proud of yourself for resolving to the program. It's a life-line! My mom had the same obsessive stuff that you are describing about her health. At the time she had four kids under the age of 9. She did the program three times through and is a totally new person. Every once in a...

Re: Stop Sign
That's awesome! I need to practice the STOP sign more. It's really hard. I have the bad habit of giving up too easily when it gets tough. I know what I need to do, but I have a really hard time making myself do it. The key is to answer the thought with something positive and soothing, then move onto...

Re: Moving So Fast
That really stinks, I know what that feels like. :( When I was at my worst with anxiety, I couldn't even sleep peacefully, I had myself so on edge about EVERYTHING. I think the key is to focus on what you really enjoy. Are there activities that take your mind off of things? Maybe you need to find so...

Re: hyper aware of time and life ??
Hi Chelsee, It sounds like this is an obsessive scary thought that your brain wants to use to distract you from something else. It would be like me telling you that I am obsessive about my mom dying. You would probably say, "Just live life! Relax and enjoy the time that you have with your mom rather...
