I struggled with this for about 3 years after having miscarried two babies in the same year. I still struggle from time to time, but I know what it is 'BEFORE' it becomes full blown. I went to a psychiatrist group therapy for an entire month on a daily basis and was medicated; but nothing worked. I hyperventilated a lot and walked around my yard barefoot in the snow one day because I was suffering so bad. Then out of the blue it hit me. Speak to it; just like God says in Matthew 17: 20. If you have 'faith the size of a mustard seed, you will move a mountain."
That mountain was my anxiety. I used some of the things I learned in my psychiatry group; like keeping busy and finding something to take my mind off of it, which I do when an occasional one hits, but my main thing was; I SPOKE TO THE ANXIETY. I said, " I was ME once, and I will be ME again." And I meant it. God has helped me through so much in my life. And I thank him greatly that he helped me through this too. I even taught myself how to play rhythm guitar during this bad time. You'd be surprised what the outcome will be. As God doesn't put more off on you than he knows you can stand. I promise you, if you turn this over to God and lay it at his feet, then speak to the Anxiety; it will be cast from you.
I haven't had an anxiety attack now in about 5 or 6 years. Praise God. I was 21 years old when it hit , and I'm 62 years old now. I believe I wouldn't have made it had God not intervened. Hope this helps you friend. God bless you and I will keep you in my prayers.
Beautiful witness, Mary, He is our strength and our shield.
Thank you. Keep posting God's word. I read everyone who posts scripture that enlightens my day. You have been a strength for a lot of people on here. God bless.
