Hello my Prayer warriors,

I am asking for urgent prayers. I am going to be completely honest and open here.I have been battling anxiety for a large portion of my life but lately it’s been intensified for no reason. I was spending time with my family today when all of a sudden I felt my breathing was weird, my hands started tingling, my legs started tingling, my lips started tingling, my bottem lip was shaking, and my stomach was tingly as well. Nothing caused it to happen I just randomly felt like that. I know I’m fine in the back of my head but I in the moment of a panic attack I feel like I’m about to pass out or die. I know that to die is gain, meaning we don’t have to fear death because we will be with Jesus, yet I am still afraid, which is aggravating. I’m just really terrified and these attacks keep happening and interfering with daily life. I’m going on a little family vacation and I am already dreading what the outcome will be, I’m just scared of when the next attack will be. My Daddy works hard and can finally take a vacation with my mommy and I, and now I’m going to ruin everything with one of these attacks which are very scary in the moment. I dwell on certain verses, but I am going to spend more time on my knees asking God to deliver me from this. Please pray no attacks happen while I’m with my family, I’m literally typing this with tears eyes because I’m so scared I’m going to ruin this vacation, my family is understanding but I just want to have a good time. Please also pray that the attacks stop. I appreciate any advice, personal stories, and prayers to My Father Jesus Christ. Do these episodes sound like panic attacks to you? Have you had any similar? I am praying for all who struggle with this as well, love you all thank you for ur time in reading this❤️❤️

Love,
Anna

God bless you, sweetheart, for your love and concern for your family. I am sure I'm not the only one that will be praying for you, but try to remember and enjoy this --that God does what he does in spite of our wishes, for a better reason. This life is not for this life.

Thank you so much for replying, I was praying for God to send someone to speak to me. You taking your time to reply means so very much to me. Thank you for praying and thank you so much for your encouraging words you are 100 percent right. I am praying I may use this as a testimony.

I've only had one panic attack after I smoked a lot of cannabis and didn't eat any food beforehand. It got so bad I called my friend, convinced I was dying in an ambulance and the reality around me was a dream I was having whilst unconcious. I think the tingling and feeling like you might pass out is likely a panic attack.

I have had anxiety. Some things I've learned over time: Don't pay too much attention to physical sensations. It causes a cycle of anxiety. It's easier said than done. Try not to avoid things. If you use avoidance you'll end up more scared of whatever is causing anxiety. This can even include trying to get the physical sensations to stop.

Humour can help. Even gallows humour. Be honest with yourself and others. I say to myself sometimes "get a grip" and "compose yourself!" in my head but these might be harsh for other people to say to themselves in the moment of anxiety. Work out what will help you.

Challenge your thoughts logically. You'll realise even the worst thing that could happen isn't even that bad. It's called catastrophising. Also, it's ok to have anxiety. It's not a flaw etc. Don't beat yourself up on top of the anxiety.

Lastly, make sure otherwise you are sleeping well, exercising and have a balanced diet. Something that recently helped me was adopting a warrior mentality. This doesn't mean I think I'm hard lol. An example of having this mentality would be an athlete saying "let's play hard and have a good game" as opposed to thinking "I've got to win"

Oh my gosh thank you so very much for this message it spoke to me so very much! Seeing your message brought me so much peace. Thank you for taking your time to reply and for sharing your testimony. You are exactly right about it being a cycle and about not paying attention and not prohibiting yourself from doing things. Thank you so much your message really encouraged me. Also, I am the worst at sleeping well I stay up very late( playing video games) and then I wake up either early or late(if it’s the weekend). I do not exercise very much, and my eating is fairly ok alothough it could be better.

Lol, yes that is the perfect quote and mentality. Thank you brother I appreciate all the advice

Hi, Anna, I know how hard it can be to get through panic attacks. When I was your age, my life was characterized by panic and anxiety. A pastor's wife gave me a copy of the Warfare Prayer by Victor Matthews, and it really helped me through a difficult time of anxiety. I prayed it every time I had an attack. It's based on scripture. Here's a link:

Hope this helps. I pray that you will find relief in Jesus' mighty name!

Bless you as well

I pray that the Lord's peace be upon you and that your peace not be disturbed in any way, shape for form. God did not give us a spirit of fear but of power, love and self-control.

I signed up to this site to specifically ask you one question.
Do you consume ANY products that contain aspartame?
If so stop and your prayers just may be answered.
Oh wow thank you for your answer, maybe this post was God leading you to this site. Um possible I am not sure. I will be sure to not consume anything that contains aspartame. Thank you so much for your reply. Is there a certain component of aspartame, which can cause symptoms similar to mine?

I just googled which food items contain that and it seems like the only item I consume that would contain aspartame would be gum, which I eat a lot of.
