Hello Dolphin love
You are not alone in many ways. You know that Jesus loves you, he loves you so much, and he knows every hair on you head and every tier you have ever cried. He knows you by name. He rejoices in his love for you.
I too suffer from sever panic attacks, and I empathize with you. I used to think god why do you let this happen to me? And I realized, He was teaching me, to improve my life, wanting me to get control. I was all over the place. It's like he was betting me down further and further. He broke my legs and made me still, and placed me next to still waters, where it is completely quite. Then I learned to be peaceful through meditation. Shut my head up.
What I’m getting at is my life was so hectic that it finally came down to not being able to breath, just too much on my plate. I broke down and lost control. But the attacks were god telling me take time to relax my mind body and soul. He tells us to sit by still water. It’s all part of his plan to mental health.I would never have done it if it wasn’t such traumatic experiences. If you practice the relaxation tapes and take them serious you should feel much better soon. And remember god loves you and want you better. He has a firm hand when he disciplines.
Sorry for rambling, just know that you’ll be OK.

<span class="ev_code_RED">Started this program 2 years ago, but went off & substituted "professional" help......& due to lack of time (because of having to help my husband with a business HE wanted, in SPITE of my misgivings & is now a FAILED business).</span><span class="ev_code_BLACK">...I'm now WITHOUT HEALTH INSURANCE, so the counseling is out. BUT I think it's a GOOD thing because I'm going to COME BACK to THIS PROGRAM again, & get back to the forums which gave me HOPE before because of the others here who understand!</span><span class="ev_code_BLUE">---As I said, our business failed, but my husband, through a friend of his was immediately able to find work. I WAS a [so-called] "PARTNER" in the business which no longer is....I'm feeling MORE anxious, panicked, and LOST than ever! ON TOP OF IT, MY HUSBAND WANTS TO FILE BANKRUPTCY TO ELIMINATE OUR DEBTS.....THAT'S NOT A PROBLEM.....BUT NOW! HE'S ACTUALLY CONSIDERING INCLUDING OUR MORTGAGE IN THIS BANKRUPTCY RATHER THAN TRYING OTHER ROUTES FIRST! PLEASE!!!! Pray that God would guide Todd (my husband) to NOT make QUICK decisions (which he has always been prone to do). But PRAY that GOD will GUIDE Todd in the RIGHT direction for our home AND MARRIAGE!! (In the past 4 months, I've been on the verge of suicide, felt like I was heading for a true nervous breakdown, but THANKS TO GOD, I'm STILL HERE!!! I don't know how much more I can take though) God Bless You All !!! Debra</span>

Hello Dolphinlover,
You will be in my prayers. And you have the support of new friends who have all "been there" on this site. When I first got started on the program I clung to Psalm 23. Here are some wonderful comments by Dr. J.R. Miller:
"Laid aside by illness? No, laid aside by stillness.... "He maketh me to lie down in green pastures, for we are not always willing ourselves to stop for rest, and gentle complusion is needed. He will not always have me on the stretch. The bow of the best violin needs to have its strings loosened, and so my Lord gives me rest. Then it is pleasant to know that it is not on the dusty road, nor on the dreary, parched hillside, that we are made to lie down, but in the green pastures, it is only and always for rest and renewal that we are made to stop and lie down. The time is not lost."
Find some time to rest and be still - you will come through this one day at a time.
Blessings!

You do have a lot on your plate, but there is hope! Congrats for coming back to this program and desiring to find your peace. Remember to take this healing process one day at a time - maybe even one moment at a time if that is what it takes. Take responsibility for your actions and reactions and pray for your husband to do the same - sounds like he is under alot of stress as well. (what I mean is not to carry his burdens.) Life is worth living - and you can do it!! This trial is a season, and although it may be hard to see your way out of it, you must believe that you will come through. I will pray that god will give you a vision of hope to cling to. He is faithful!!! Have you been able to speak with your doctor?
Blessings!
