Fear
Hello. My name is Sheri. Im 43...mother of 2 sons. Christopher who is 22 and lives on his own. Brandon who lives in Heaven. He went home on July 18,2003 at the age of 20. It was a motorcycle crash. In 2006 my mom died in my arms...it was a horrible 3 month nightmare in ICU and we finally let her go. I have suffered form depression since 2001. I was hosptialized for it in May 2001 because it was so bad I was contemplatling suicide. It has come and gone a million times...just when I feel Im going to be free....it creeps back in. It has been horrible for a week now. Ive cried, Ive prayed to God so many prayers to take it away. To give me strength. Sometimes I feel like Im losing my mind...litterly! I want to be free!!!!! I see a psychologist since March 07. Was doing better it seemed for a couple months and then I dropped again. I cant hold a job because of it. I have a wonderful husband. But he doesnt understand. Infact it is the only thing in our life that causes conflict and Im afraid it will destroy us if I dont get better...Today I feel like a 1 on a scale of 1-10 with 1 being the worst. |

Re: Fear
Dear Sheri: I am so sorry about the pain you are feeling. I can't imagine how you must feel. Sometimes the only thing we can do is hang on, knowing that the Lord is with us. His presence is really the only thing we have in this world of pain. He promises that. I do take comfort that when our pain is more than we can bear, He is there. |

Re: Fear
Thank you Linda for your thoughts. When our thoughts are low, its so hard to see any light at the end of the tunnel. Even when you are a strong christian and KNOW that God is with you....sometimes you cant feel Him there...you feel so alone. So desperate for his hand to touch you. I know if you stay in faith, He always brings us thru those times. But waiting is the hardest part. I guess it is to make a "stronger" but it sure can be hard to hang on sometimes. I know God is faithful. I know He is with me. But I want nothing more in my life than to be free of this depression and able to help others who have suffered such as I. |

Re: Fear
Sheri: When I read your last post, I thought of Job. His friends were really of no use whatsoever. There are points in ourselves that others can't touch much less understand. From what you said, you do have faith in the Lord and are waiting for Him to release you from the pain you're in. That's more that most people can say. I have a cd by Kathy Triccoli (sp?) and she talks about her battles with depression. She said that at one time she was laid so low she couldn't even pray, that all she could do was lie on the couch and just say "Jesus". Maybe you are at that point. Please hang on and even though you don't feel His presence, just say His name. Linda |

Re: Fear
Hi, I am new to this site, but your plea for peace touched me. I am 43 also and have been suffering since I was 21. I feel like I lost so much of my life living in a fog. I just ordered the free from anxiety attacks program from the midwest center from an infomercial. I thought that it was like every other cure all I have tried, but this really helped me. I had a lot of stressful things going on this week and I reallized I used the skills and tools they taught me and gor the first time I made it 5 days without a full blown attack and could still function! Give the midwest center a try along with constant praying. God Bless |
