Bad News

[stacii]

I have been off of my meds successfully for about two months. All was well!!!

...until the news on Sunday night blasted across a story that was horrifying even to the most stable of citizens. The whole time I watched I was like, what am I doing? I am going to dig myself an emotional hole that is too deep for me to get out of. So of course I didn't take my own advice and I googled the story afterward and read even more horrifying stuff....

So here I am - not wanting to go back on the meds because I've done so well, but I am spiking left and right and cannot stop obsessing over it. I hate it.

Praying for you, stacii. I don't know why we act against our better judgment sometimes and then we regret it. I have done that over and over myself with the kinds of things that make me spike. Hopefully, if you can just ride the anxiety out, it will subside soon.

Lord,
I just pray for your daughter, stacii, right now and ask you to calm her mind and give her peace. Lord, I just ask that the memory of all the things that recently troubled her would fade and seem very distant. Lord, we thank you that she has done well even without meds for 2 months and Lord, I just ask you to heal that part of her mind that would cause any OCD tendencies to spike.

In Jesus name we ask~

I don't know you and what causes you to spike, but from what you have said and all, I just feel prompted to encourage to possbly read some scriptures like the Psalms if that is good for you. (I know some people have problems reading the Bible when they are spiking.)
Amen
