Hi everyone,
I wnated to ask for prayer for me and anyone in this world who is going through same trials if anyone knows any verses from the bible I can come to please let me know.
I have been diagnosed with a anxiety disorder and will be starting medication for it and I will also be taking anti depressants the doctor says I need it. I am nervous and scared about taking this type of medication and I just want to ask god to help me get trough this and that in the end everything turns out ok, and I will be able to be the person he wants me to be. I’ve learned from this site how you can find support and talk to people who love the lord as much as I do. THANK YOU! GOD BLESS.
2 Timothy 1:7 7For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Hi there find 28,
This is such a blessing for me to help others in similar situations as mine. I am currently 24 years old and when I was 18 I experienced my first panic attack, which included feelings of extreme fear, trembling, depression, and many others which I rather not share because knowing how this ailment is you will probably think this will happen to you to :D. Okay first thing from experience that I did that you should never do is google every symptom plese! don’t do this it causes more harm than good. For a person that has had 4 episodic panic attacks and depression I can tell you that Dr. Google made my symptoms worse. Here is something the Lord has revealed to me you need to get on your knees, pray pray pray. To be honest medication has helped me but everyone will react differently. My father has this similar problem and so does various of my family members so all I can tell you is for me I believe is genetic and I thank the lord because my dad was of great support to me and so was my uncle. Here is some scripture that may help 1Peter 7-9 says: “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.” Because fear is the underlying cause of anxiety I give you these verses. 1John4:18 says:”There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect”. For this one ask God to perfect you in the perfect love of Christ. Another scripture passage that I like is: 2Timothy1:For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline (or in some versions a sound mind). To be honest I am not a doctor all I can tell you is that my dad has taken clonazapam for 30 years and he has lived a normal life he goes out and works on his hobbies. Please always put the power of God first. I need you to pray for the medication if you decide to take it that way God directs the medicine to help you and not hurt you. Then get into a good church that teaches on the bible, ask God to give you a heart of a worshiper, ask him that you want a close relationship with him, and read the bible everyday and ask him that the scriptures that are meant for you stick to the tablets of your heart. When you worship he decends the Holy Spirit in a strong way and do not be scared if he baptizes you this will give you so much strenght. And when ever you feel panicky run to your room, open your bible, and pray. Always put Christian music. This is not a physical battle this is called oppression by the enemy but I also think it can be biological or the medicine wouldn’t work. Ask God that he takes all the seeds of negativity and fear from your heart and mind, and that he plants new ones, so he can make you more positive. Remember we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us :D. Phillipians 4:13 One more thing that is very important the more we dwell in ourselves the harder it is to get out of something. The Lord showed me that we need to Love others as much as ourselves. Everyday ask God how you can help others in any minimal way :D. Then you will see like one of the top scriptures says that you are not alone in suffering and will give you the will to help others and you will see how small your problem can be compared to others :D, not that you are not important but we are warriors of Christ our anxieties have cures and treatments more so because the Lord Jesus is our shepard :D. Another thing do not believe what everyone tells you like I used to ask God and he will answer, ask for signs before you make major life decisions for instance like taking the meds that’s what I did I used to ask questions over and over to everyones possible reactions etc…but in the end you are unique and only God can help you in your unique situation. Ask for lots of support but remember you and God have a connection just like me and your fellow brothers. And always ask for prayer because many prayers by your loved ones or your fellow siblings will help a lot. I hope this helps and I too will be praying for you ok sis or bro not sure because of your name lol. Stay firm in the Lord!
Dear Find 28,
Where are you located?
In order for you to receive complete deliverance, you’ll need to surrender your life to Jesus Christ as your personal saviour, then be baptised and become a church member. Then in the church with the assistance of the pastor and elders, devote your time to be taught the word of God beginning with your foundation. You must also join a smaller group that meets regularly to enable you grow in the christian faith.
If you choose to live a Holy life, Jesus Christ himself promised you that He will not leave you, nor forsake you.
Pray without ceasing and don’t give up.
Praise the lord,faith is very important in the situation you have to hold on to God remove fear n anxiety there are destiny killers focus on jesus; bible said by his stripes we are healed.God is your strength
every single thing you need can be found at the cross where Jesus died and in the inspired word of God.. (king James Version).. are you born again as u have to start there?..you can take your medication but be aware of the fact it could make you worse..a born again Christian is not suppose to take council from the ungodly.. Psalm 1:1..this means to seek God and let the Holy Spirit be your councilor..search your heart and see what God sees..are you holding a grudge or not letting God have total control of your life..find some music that is anointed by the Holy Spirit and let the Holy Spirit minister to your heart..i know from experience that anxiety is real but it is not from God and He is ready to give you peace that passes understanding..go to youtube and listen to samuel cornell..he sings “At the Cross”… it will bless you..Jesus is the only answer to live in victory….if you are open to it..the best thing you can do is ask for the Baptism of the Holy Spirit..this will give you power within to serve God through praise and worship..maybe you are not open to being baptized in the Holy Spirit (not water) i done know…We all have battles to fight but we dont have to fight them alone..i will pray for you…
2 Timothy 1:7. Meditate on this Scripture. Fear is not your portion and command the spirit of fear to get out of you and go back to hell where it belongs. Stay blessed
