My Story and The "extras" I DID to Overcome Panic Attacks!!!
ms T I haven't read your story yet. I will when we get back from our walk. hubby is waiting on me. did you have the attacks hit you in the night? I thought I was doing better and last nite I tossed and turned til after midnite. then feel asleep and a tuff attack hit me. I had some kind of dream. I have fears of being alone. I thought I was dealing with that but don't know what happened. not time to discribe it all. but how
do I get my mind to believe what my heart knows, that Our Heavenly Father is with me and He is taking care of me? how do I deal w/attacks that come on me in the nite and out of the blue? I'm on the online church separate forum. doesn't seem to be anyone there but Gman lately. I need a woman mentor too. anyway hope you have a good day. I haven't looked into the main forums much. things seem so overwhelming to keep up with everything. I so want to please my Father and have greater childlike faith, I believe even that He gives. sometimes I just get impatient waiting I guess.

ms T I got back from my walk and read your story. it is very helpful and I printed it off to try some of your techniques.
I am also writing in my little notebook the "I Am's in Christ"
you are right on about the inner child and parent. my psychologist says I have a harsh inner parent from my mom's negative words to me. so I hope to learn to like myself and become more loving to myself.
I am slow on the program because I want to get it into me. I guess I should go on to lesson 4 by now. I have trouble keeping doing things once I start them, like recording my negative thoughts. I tend to get too many things going at once. sometimes all the input gets overwhelming. so its a beautiful day in the ozarks. I'm really lonely. I have a wonderful husband but no close girl friends. when my mom went to be with the Lord two years ago, I just lost it, because she was my only real friend. I'd spent alot of time with her and didn't have anyone else. so I sure could use a friend who has been thru this and will help mentor me thru it. blessings your way. oh btw I am 62yrs old and will be 63 this month. I wonder sometimes why all this has waited so long to come on me. I've always been very insecure and lacked confidence in myself tho.

T, your story is so inspiring! I'm trying to learn what it means to open my heart to God and let Him in. I know that being spiritually healed and loved is key to healing. I just haven't quite gotten this part yet... and am not sure how. I'm so intellectual that the skills part of the program are easy, well, on the surface. It's the self-love and acceptance that have been hard which I think ultimately we have to know that He loves and accepts us with all our cracks, flaws, etc. How does one get in touch with Him? I know this is going a little far out there...branching off topic... perhaps belonging in the Spirituality forum, but I am truly curious. Thoughts? I'm going to try to solidify my question and post it in that forum. Thanks again!
Cuttingirl and Pam - I am in the same turmoil as you. How do I totally trust in the Lord? I had no one to trust when I was a child growing up with both parents alcoholics. I pray for the Lord to come into my life and yet part of me (most of me)pulls back in doubt and mistrust. I sometimes think that everything I am reading is not real, there is no God. Where do these persistent doubtful thoughts come from? I read my Bible and have Bible study and yet I am unable to trust in Him. I just simply can't, "Let go, let God." I know I need Him in order to live. A part of me fears that this isn't because of my anxiety and that I will never be able to accept Him 100% into my life.
Yet I know it would be wonderful if I could!
