Should I just pray?

[Angeleyes7715]

I'm not just depressed, my life is also reeking with terrible things. I am barely making it day to day and feel I'm on the verge of something horrible happening. I so scared I don't know what to do anymore. I need God's help for real! I need a 180!

Jesus loves you and He is always with you and I would definitely recommend praying because it's always good to talk to Him. God bless you and Jesus is Lord. You can message me whenever.

Hang in there, Angel. Have you been able to see a dr about your anxiety? They may be able to help stop some of the worst panic so you can tackle some change in the things you are able to control in your life.

It may be worth using the Chaplains Office on CF just so you can let off steam and have someone to talk to. I find being able to talk about things often helps lighten the load of things going round my head so it may be worth a try to see if it helps.

Hi Angeleyes, call your pastor immediately and tell him what you just told us, and let the other Christians in your church minister to, love and help you through this rough patch. We Christians are a family and that's what families, especially those within the body of Christ, are supposed to do

Praying for you!

I don't have a Pastor like that anymore. I don't really go to my church much since I'm always working and I'm afraid of being around people now days.


All I know is if God does not kill me now I don't know how I am going to make it. IIdont want to live one more day, every day I'm hurting! Took several doses of CBD oil (the legal kind) to calm down with my endless crying so upset I stop breathing. I am just not functioning anymore I want my life to be over and I don't want to wake up tomorrow. God where are you? I pray in my head right now thats the best I can do and I just wish you'd change my life

Do you have anyone you can talk to right now sister? Family? Someone who might be able to come over to see you, talk with you and/or just be with you for a time?

Just hang in there as best you can and trust the Lord to see you through this (in the long run), as well to help you find someone (or a counseling ministry or a new church) to help and care for you in the short run.

And yes, most definitely continue to cry out to Him in prayer for help right now, and search the Scriptures as well, to hear what He has to say to you and to respond back to Him in prayer yet again. And try your best to be patient and trust that He will answer your prayers, just like the Bible promises us He will, always remembering that it is He who chose to die for you (so that He would not have to live out eternity w/o you), who is seeing to your needs

You are loved with an everlasting love, that’s what the Bible says, and underneath are the everlasting arms. ~Elisabeth Elliot​

Praying for you!

p.s. - my wife is part of a Christian counseling ministry to women here in our home town. I don't know what city you live in, but I'll see if there is a network of some kind out there and let you know. Perhaps there is something like this near you

Philippians 4
6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.​

I find reading the book of Proverbs helpful on harder days....

Prayers for you, dear one.

Please know that God loves you, and He is with you through any difficult times to use them to help you and shape you. But I know that probably just sounds like a platitude. Sometimes it helps to talk to someone.

Since you don't have a pastor you can talk to right now, why don't you speak with one of the Chaplains here? There are both public and private areas. Chaplains Office

There are other resources we can put you in touch with. Particularly a Christian-focused one might be more sensitive to your concerns.

Also you can speak to someone immediately any time say or night by calling a crisis line. They are usually able to help put you in touch with different kinds of resources too.

There are crisis lines and various resources listed in this post - Crisis Hotlines & Resources

Please know that you are infinitely precious to God. Please don't let the thoughts you may be having push you further into despair - these are lies of the enemy and there is no truth in him. Yes, you should pray, but if you talk to a chaplain or someone who can help you see that God is right there with you and really can be trusted even when things look the most bleak, your prayers will bring you more peace and comfort. Feel free to pm me if you like. But please talk to someone.

I'm praying for you.

Proverbs is good.

I really like praying the Psalms at times like that. We have to be careful with imprecatory theology, but they make very comforting prayers.
