This week was a very stressful week for me and my anxiety. I just could not seem to get it under control. I was all over the place with my obsessive scary thoughts and what if's. I have been having terrible bouts of crying and just feeling down. I just have these overwhelming crying episodes. I was experiencing some of my usual symptoms of anxiety that had seemed to not be as strong for the past few weeks. I was at a loss so I finally decided to pray and ask the Lord for help! I asked him to help me and get me through this and show me something, anything because I am tired of the way I am feeling and living"... I told myself earlier in the week I was going to find a church nearby and attend. So I did some research and found one. My boyfriend, who never really wants to go to church, told me last night that he would come with me. When I told him which one I was going to he suggested another and boy was he ever RIGHT. I immediately felt peace when I walked in the door. I felt comforted. I felt much better than I had felt the days before. When the Pastor started preaching, he was talking about Not letting your issue define us...not living your life in fear due to your circumstances and being able to break free from them. I left church today in tears and full of hope. For once I have felt that GOD was speaking directly to me. I have never experienced this before.
Just thought I would share.

Back to church and excited
