Im ok, thanks for asking. Im going through a rough phase right now though. It comes and goes. It lasts for a month or so but then passes. It comes in the mornings after i wake. Its very difficult but diminishes after a im fully awake. It happens everyday and can last for weeks. Im unsure what it is exactly. Perhaps PTSD.
Oh that is horrible. PTSD you reckon? You suffered severe trauma as well? Isn't it horrible to be plagued by the past without the power to stop it? What are some of your main symptoms? How long does it take before you are fully awake and the tensions subside? Does it ever turn you into a raging lunatic like I go? do you suffer from psychoses?
Does coffee help speed the process waking up? It always helps me, I be lost without my coffee, especially in the morning. Many people have claimed that is why I can't sleep, especially doctors. However I tried once for a whole year to do on just one cup a day, it was a terrible time, and I still couldn't sleep, nor did it help my P.T.S.D attacks any, and went psychotic after 14 months not able to sleep, like now really, but I was a lot weaker then and didn't have as much mental support then as I have now.
If your disturbance is in your mind, like racing, shifting, jumping, contracting or expanding, melting, foggy, smashing, crushing, stabbing, crazy, dark, disturbing or fearful thoughts or ideas - then Niacin might help you, for it sure did calm my mind when it comes to such kind of troubles.
If it are mainly your feelings/emotions the main herb, you know I use, might help you as wel,l and/or Staphygeria or Aurum might help. Especially the first herb mentioned is great for that and for having loving/caring/focused emotions, I miss it heaps at the moment keeping calm and focused.
If it is spiritually I know for sure you can get help, but I think you already know how to go about receive help there. I don't might praying for you every morning brother. If you give me the times you struggle then I check what time that is with us (do pass me your time zone though,) and ask Jesus to help me pray for you during such times, I'm sure that will help you, for spiritually we are O(o)ne in Christ no matter the distance.
We have a special prayer thread stickied on top here at CF where we can request prayer as well. I found that the more people pray with understanding and concerned hearts, the more help I receive when I struggle during hard times. Prayer is great.
Let me know what you struggle with brother and I will call on the Lord on your behalf for as long as it takes to overcome that part of your life.
Peace.
