I just wanted to share a personal experience that I had. I've had panic doisorder for a few years now. And the panic attacks were relentless. One day I was at my grandparent's house and they went to bed early. There I was alone, in the middle of the night, having a panic attack to end all worlds. I didn't know what to do and I didn't want to wake either of them. So I started to pace the room. I was frantically just walking around when I spotted the Bible laying next to my grandmother's chair. God has always been there for me, and sometimes I get so overwhelmed with panic that I actually forget to pray and talk to God! crazy I know. Anyway, I sat down to read thinking over time it would calm me down. I kid you not, I opened up the Bible to Psalms 94:19, completely by chance, and it read...."When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought joy to my soul", I immediately felt better. I was so amazed and overcome with joy and comfort that I burst into tears. It was like God was talking to me. They were happy tears by the way I have tattoos, all musical notes. And I just recently added one...it reads Psalms 94:19, and I got it just below the bend of my right arm. Now, whenever I panic or start to feel an attack, I look at it and it brings me comfort. God is looking out for us all, and doesn't want us to suffer with this "condition" if you will. This was just an uplifting experience for me, and I wanted to share it. God is my rock, and will be right by my side as I get better. Best wishes to all of you

Hi Laura:

Thank you for that note! I agree,,,,God has directed me to so many accomplished moments and there have been times when I feel God strongly. I think God has led me to this program because I was totally at the end of my rope before I started the program and I asked (sorry, I begged) for guidance and my prayer was answered.

Thank you for sharing...I wish you continued success!!

Laura,
Thank you for sharing that. I needed that because sometimes in the midst of anxiety I forget where my blessings truly flow from and who helps me, help myself over those humps and who I need to put my trust in. God is so good and when you least expect it, he will speak to you. Your story was a great example.

Thats a great story. Thank you for sharing it. I completely understood when you said you "forgot" to turn to God. I have done the same but when I turned back he was right there.
Be well.

God delivered me from Panic Attacks, Meds and Agoraphobia thoughts.... Thanks for the Psalm! I need that one now for my other intrusive thoughts...
