Please send up a prayer for me. I have been struggling with panic attacks for the last couple years. They have gotten so bad that I rarely go around people and very place where I tend to have them most is at church. This has caused me to issolate myself from everybody and has made me depressed.

It is a difficult but curable condition though it takes time and good program to work each day helps a lot. Have you heard of Dr Claire Weekes?

Dr Claire Weekes - Self Help Method for Your Nerves

Some helpful resources:

E-book | Anxiety Guru | Hope and Healing
http://www.anxietysocialnet.com/

And if you are on medication and want to compare notes with others:

Psycho-Babble

Also people with anxiety disorders benefit from alternative therapies like Christian soaking music, scented candles, mild exercise and a good diet (no caffeine, illegal drugs, alcohol, etc...), avoiding the news, and creating positive environments for themselves to live in :).

Wow, I am sorry you are experiencing this. I know they are painful and scary. I hope you get help and or healing on this.

Lord Jesus, I ask for Your loving touch to heal my sister of panic attacks. I ask that you would bring to her the truth and knowledge of who You are into her mind and soul. I ask for You to bring her to the place You want her to go and help her to be free of this. If it be Your will, in Jesus name.

Hi kat1085
I'm sorry to hear about your issue. My sister suffered quite badly from epilepsy and panic attacks. I read in the Bible of the young one possessed by the demons which the apostles couldn't heal or rid him of and Jesus said that there are some who can only be cured by prayers and fasting. So I thought 'good I can do that for my sister.' I think I fasted for 48 hours and prayed. When I seen my sister she came to visit me. I looked outside to see who was with her. She laughed and asked me what I was doing so I asked her who was with her. She happily told me that for some reason all the fear just left her and she just wanted to get out and enjoy living. So happy for her ;)

Now panic attacks are a very common issue and instead of telling how to get rid of them for some it goes much deeper and should be addressed.
There are of course different reasons that so many people face this disorder and some not even found out as yet.

The most common would be attacks by demonic forces for those still weak in their walk with God to deal with it of which by faith can ask God to deal with them.

The other is insecurity issues stemming from peer pressure, others in your life whether it be parents, siblings, other family members, friends of the family, or other community members, teachers, preachers, police, social workers etc etc speaking evil over you. ie 'you are too dumb, you will never amount to anything, s/he is so ugly, they are poor, they are lazy, nobody wants you, you can't do anything right and ...
esp. the hidden ones no one thinks is detrimental to your life is over protective parents not allowing you to do things because you might break something, or you might choke on anything too large (in their opinion), you can't make your own sandwich because you might cut yourself with the butter knife, you can't use glass because you might break the cup/plate, etc etc.

Then there is abuse in its many forms esp. those who keep it a secret because they are ashamed or they are told not to shame the family name or some other lame excuse.

And lastly that I can think of is committing in their opinion a great sin.

*** If any of these sound like you then take it to God and if HE wants you to seek counselling He will tell you but DON'T forget Jesus IS the great counsellor. Ask for His guidance AND don't be so hard on yourself.

I have had chronic anxiety disorder for awhile now and it sometimes causes me actual physcial problems.I have people telling me and doctors constanly that it is all in my head..that when in the moment of panic I need to tell my self it will pass and that it is all in my head and I am ok.It is hard to get to the point where you can talk yourself out of the anxiety right now I am in a bad cycle of anxiety especially health anxiety the worry of something being seriously wrong!I am needing prayers and would like to send up prayers for you all for your panic,stress,and anxiety!Reply if you relate and tell me symptoms you struggle with and we can all pray of each issue and also I want to say sometimes saying it out loud to others who know the feeling can help instead of like me looking up info about health related symptoms hoping to get anwsers but only to fuel the panic!

Praying you put your hand in the LORDs and know that with his word you will over come. Faith in the sword of his word will set you free. He has set his word even above his name and it will do what he has said when spoken in faith. He is above all powers so fear can not stand with faith is brought forth. God bless

Isaiah 41:10


[SUP]10 [/SUP]So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
