thanks so much EspoirTheMage! sometimes i feel really guilty, coz i know that Jesus promises us His peace, and despite knowing that i am saved, my body still betrays me by going into anxiety mode! i feel like a really bad Christian witness to others, when i should be able to be strong. i won t let this get me down for long though, coz i can do all things, through Christ who strengthens me! love and blessings to all

praying for you, EspirTheMage, and other sufferers, you don t have to do it all in your own strength. my husband took me out for 2 dreaded nights in a row, and i made it through without any major freakouts! still on meds, oxazepam and morphine for breathlessness, which usually help praise

Thank you, i appreciate it.

Tomorrow I'm probably going to have to face being alone again. I'm hoping for the best and hoping my anxiety won't bring me down.

its really hard when you re never quite sure whether you re going to be okay. makes it impossible to plan events with other people. i am blessed with a husband who doesn t get upset if we have to change our plans at the last minute, and he will do things for me when i am not able. do you have pets ? my dog and 2 cats are a great comfort to me, and sometimes they get me out of bed on days when i would otherwise have stayed in. i find that sometimes i can force myself to do more than i thought i could, for their sake, blessings

Hi ETM,

Hoping that today goes well for you! I am impressed that you are making such progress in staying home on your own! I know that it is not easy...but you are doing it, using your tools to help you, and that is improvement.:)

Keep talking with us, and keep up the good work!

I remember feeling the same way when I first joined!

Take your time and get comfortable around the forum...if you do at some point want to start your own thread...it is easy.:)

Just hit on the 'Post New Topic' icon and it will take you to a new box to post in. Give it a title (like giving an e-mail a subject) and then type and submit.

This forum is for you, and your anxiety support...so keep doing whatever is helpful/comfortable for you.:)

Peace and progress.

hi guys, in a bit of trouble here at the moment. trying to cut down my meds a bit because ive reached the max that my dr is willing to prescribe, and i m developing a tolerance to it (oxazepam - serepax) reading over calming scriptures but still suffering. arranging to see a therapist from church that the church is financing, so hope that helps, but haven t started yet. starting to panic, also, our house burned down in a bushfire 5 years ago, and the weather is sweltering for the last week like it was then. scared we willll lose eveything again, or that this time we won t save our pets, which last time, praise God were fine, blessings to all
