Prayers Please!
I am having a rough day today. I have had horrible anxiety since the time I got out of bed. I am fighting every minute. I am at work but it has been a struggle. I had a meeting this morning and had to walkout halfway through do to my anxiety. I just feel like giving up. I am tired of struggling with life everyday. I just want to be normal and be able to smile and life like I used to. I am leaning on god every hour on the hour hoping things will go away. I am not on any meds. they make me more anxious. I hope this will all go away soon. thanks for listening.

Hang in there honey make sure you do your breathing that you learned on the program if you find it hard to do I do it a bit different. Do 5 deep tummy breaths in and then hold it for 4 sec then release slowly through your mouth for 5 or more sec. Try this honey it might help a bit apparently if you hold for the 4 seconds in between it releases good endorphines to your brain to calm down. Keep working on that and remember if God brings you to it he will take you through it. I am praying for you now and continue to lift yourself up with positive thoughts. I know it is hard when you feel so aweful but just think God didn't give us a spirit of fear but a spirit of hope and peace. I am having the same problem today so I know it is hard but you are in my heart and prayers and you are not alone honey.
Love you

Your doing fabulous Ashley!! To think your taking hour by hour........I remember having to take 2 minutes by 2 minutes. Give yourself more credit and your not taking any meds!!! WOW that is very inspiring. Remember to find an object to focus on and zoom in on.......Your mind is on God and the physical will follow...but as it follows give something for the physical element of yourself to be distracted with....like the breathing....or flipping paper clips on your desk....I use to make funny faces with them.....just to smile and laugh.....Have a blessed day!!

Ashley,
I told you earlier you can do this! Right now stop thinking about what is scaring you and focus on God! He will bring you through all of this! Picture this in Psalms 91 it talks about the Lords mighty wings protecting you! Now sit back and know that there are wings around you keeping you safe and taking you through this! I pray Jesus' blood around you and I pray that you will have peace of mind and no more thoughts that make you want to give up! You will make it through this I know you will! I did it and so can you! You will be okay just keep your mind off your symptoms and onto the Lord! God bless you! You are in my prayers!

Ashlynn,
Got your message and will respond asap. It's hard to sit down while the baby is up plus housework that has to get done today for company. Meanwhile, yes, I have 3 tips: GOD, this program, absolutely wonderful spouse/family and good meds that work. Opps, that was four.
My day too started out with physical pain= mental anguish. SO I've been talking myself down all day and when hubby gets home, he will take over and I will feel ok and safe again.
I wrote in my journal today. Mayeb it was actually meant for the both of us. "God is bigger than all your fears, wearies and anxieties. Be still and let Him do His work."
Take the rest of the day off and let Him carry you through it. Let the prayers of those on this site lift you up so for a little while ou aren't carrying the burden. If you haven't read Maeggie's post, please do a search and read her post today. The Lord has given her extra strength and I believe it's becuase He's answered all of our prayers. Now we ask Him to hold YOU in the palm of HIS hand so that you can feel the same inner peace. And for everyone that responds here, there are probably 10 more who don't but are praying deeply for you.
I will talk more with you later. Hang in there and post back if it gets too rough. The group won't let you fall! Beverly

Im not sure what lesson your on.. But, the skills really help.. Especially the floating through the anxiety.
Floating=Accepting
The symptoms are just that! symptoms, excess adrenilin brought on by at times, a single thought, or after being anxious worrying you will be anxious again.
When you begin praciticing floating through it,, accepting the symptoms knowing that all they are, they wont scare you. They pass faster when you float, and relax.
That doesnt mean you wont be uncomfortable, but DO it anyway. The more you accept and float, the less the symptoms will become.. I wish you the best ,,, Nelly
