When nothing is going on life is ok most of the time, but when my anxiety goes way down and I get some courage something comes along to take the wind out of me?
Does this ever happen to anyone else? Can the devil do this on purpose to discourage us? Is it a coincidence? I don't get it. I don't know. I've noticed a similar trend in my life. I think it's partly satan and partly me. |

Is it that these are set backs during the healing process and we are so vulnerable to set backs?
But yes we are in a battle against the god of this world and our own old man/woman. |

People without anxiety or panic may never feel like this. They go through school, graduate get married and have a job or career that they like.
People with anxiety or panic may never achieve these things. We may be stuck in our houses unable to make any friends and to enjoy life.
There are many other people who may be in this category also. I hope others don't take their lives for granted because I know they would not want to trade places with people like us who are -
God's forgotten ones.
I hear ya. There's no place in society for some of us. The longer I'm forced out of society, the harder it is to (want to) get back in.
I'm just marking time, 'til my time is up.

Did you watch the comedy shows you mentioned about before? Praying for you No I didn't. My daughter wound up home from school because of snow days and then my husband got sick and wound up coming home a few days early. The earliest that I'll be able to watch anything that is not intense will be Thursday morning. |

I hope I can get stronger and maybe go back to church and join a church group in 2010.
Thanks for your prayers. |

I was so touched when I went to the forums boards and found birthday threads started for me. Then I went to facebook wall and I am in tears because I didn't know there were that many people who cared. I didn't count all of the messages on my wall, but there are way more than I ever expected there would be. |
