I should probably testify of what I've overcome acting in Gods way. When I was 24 I came down with severe panic attacks. I felt dark inside and empty, and felt like I was going to hell. I worried and would have panic attacks that I would die and be sent to hell.

I tried medications and doctors and they helped some but I would still have the attacks and depression.

Then when I was 27 I felt called into the Lord. So I started going to church. I began and then slowly over the course of about 1-3 years the depression and panic attacks slowly went away. I began feeling filled with the Holy Spirit and that replaced the darkness and emptiness.

I found what I had been missing. It was God.

Now ~50 I find that I have a love for God and try to love my fellow man. And I feel so much better. I'm still on medication for schizophrenia, but no longer have to take antidepresants or anxiety meds, just the anti-psychotics. They help me and I'm not paranoid anymore.

What a blessing God is to the world and his sons and daughters God Bless!

I still struggle with thinking I’m going to hell in cycles and waves and have to take antipsychotics for schizophrenia too. I’m trying to learn to trust that Jesus will save me but the fear sometimes comes and causes me anxiety and depression. I’m glad you were through God able to overcome your panic attacks and depression
