Stress level is through the roof today.

I woke up this morning and had one of the worst attacks I've had. This is the weekend. I'm supposed to be calm. I went through the program almost a year ago. I was getting better. I haven't slept more than 3 hours a night for the past 3 weeks. I feel so drained right now. All I want to do is sleep, but I can't. My mind is racing so fast about things that are causing my stress levels to rise. I don't want to waste another weekend. I want to overcome this. It seems that whether it's work, or finances or loved-ones health or something else going wrong with the house or all of it once, I can't seem to shake the feeling of hopelessness. I really want to stop the roller coaster and get off. I feel like I'm going to black out every so often. I was getting better, now I'm sliding back to where I was before.

Hi David,
I am sooooo sorry that you are suffering in this manner!!! I just posted up a new discussion on this little forum!!! I pray that it helps you beyond human understanding!!!

God knows that I totally understand what you are going through, since, I suffered in this manner for 21 years of my life!!!

You will overcome by the Grace of God!!! Do not give up on yourself...Look straight to Jesus!!!

I have been missing you in our little church!!! I think if you just went in there and read through the past postings, then, it would help you tremendously!!!

I really do care sooooo much about you and I do not want you to suffer in this manner anymore!!!

I pray that you have such a beautiful day filled with much sunshine, laughter and joy!!!

I believe that you do understand. I've been a nervous wreck today. I'm very tired too. I'm scared to go to work tomorrow.

I will read the other posts.

Thank you Ms T Bones.

It is likely because you are overtired! I find myself being more anxious when I am very tired and haven't slept. Anxiety is like a rollercoaster, I am finding, we all have out up days and down days. It never is going to hurt us though!!! It sure feels it somedays though!! Keep breathing and positive self-talk and you will be fine! Tomorrow is a better day!!

Thanks Labourg. I know you are right. I will do the relaxation cd. I need to learn not to think about tomorrow today. It's such a waste of today.

Hi Manofmusic,
You are sooooo welcome

I know that panic attacks feel very dangerous, but trust me, they can hurt you in no shape, form or fashion!!!

labourg is right...Losing sleep does add to your anxiety!!!

I wish that you had the time to sit down and write down your negative thoughts and dissect each of them and you would find that almost all of them are "irrational thoughts"

You may find this video of much help!!! This is a start!!!

Here is the video... How To Receive Healing!!!

I pray that you find that peace in your heart that only God can give to each of us!!!

God Bless you manofmusic!!! I have been praying for you and I will continue to do so, until, you find that peace which surpasses all understanding!!!

I pray God Blesses you with some rest tonight!!! Much Love in Christ Jesus!!!

Hi Manofmusic,
I don't plan on going anywhere

I am sooooo thankful that you enjoyed the video!!! That is a "start" huh???

I would like to share a VERY much more powerful video with you!!!

This portrays Jesus just before He was crucified!!! He had just finished praying to our Heavenly Father, and He prayed until His sweat became as great drops of blood, only to come back and find His disciples (followers) sleeping...He was crushed!!

Then, it shows the stripes that He bore for the healing of our bodies!!!

It shows his mother (Mary) remembering Jesus back as a little child, while, He was suffering in this manner!!!

Then it shows Him packing that cross which bore all of our sins upon it...That is why it was soooo much heavier...

Then it shows a woman who had sinned with men and the people were stoning her...Jesus writes in the sand, "Yea without Sin cast the first stone"...They had to throw down their stones, since, they all had sinned...

Next it shows, this same lady crawling to just touch His feet...She was healed on that day...This is all sooooooo Biblical, since, I have read these things for my own self!!!

I just wanted to let you in on what is going on in this video before sharing this VERY powerful video and song with you!!!

I pray that by you watching this one, that great miracles of salvation and healing take place IN YOUR LIFE...In the Precious Name of Jesus...Amen and Amen...

Here is the video, manofmusic... You Raise Me Up!!!

I pray you get some rest tonight all secure and sheltered beneath the wings of our Almighty God!!!
