Hey you two, just went through some rough times with anxiety & was reading through old posts to sort of boost myself a bit. Was just wondering how you are coping & how things are going in general & in your efforts to control anxiety...My prayers are always with you - Marirose

Hi Marirose,
Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I've been trying to stay busy, and keep my mind occupied. I took up painting by number and it really helps with the anxiety. I never could draw a straight line so it takes alot of concentration. LOL, It doesn't look to bad though. I hate to hear your having some hard times, just keep your head up and remember he's only a prayer away. He will bring you out of this, and I know your a very strong person, so just try to relax and keep praying. I will check back tomorrow and see how your doing. If you need anything just let me know. I can't do much on here, but I'm here to listen and offer encouragement and prayer. You are always in my prayers even if we don't get to talk as much. I will forever be grateful for you because you brought me through some very rough times. My heart and prayers are with you, worriedfemale :wave:

Hey hon - Glad to hear that things are going well - sounds like the painting is fun! I need to try something like that - keep me in your prayers, things are looking up, but prayers & friends & God are all I need to pull me through! I am feeling better already. Talk to you soon! Marirose

Hey Marirose,
The painting is fun and it keeps me out of anxiety trouble. Give it a try you might like it. I will keep you in my prayers and I'm glad to hear your feeling better. Don't let Satan take the good away from you. I'll talk to you soon!! God Bless You, luckyfemale

Hello Marirose : Gosh I'm sorry I didn't write for so long. Also very sorry to hear you were struggling with your anxieties. I so hope things are better for you now. You are such a caring person and I have thought of you even though I haven't posted here in awhile.
I too have had my ups and downs,,,still taking my meds which seem to help but still have 'those' days when they don't work as well as I wished. Thus is life though I try to tell myself *smile*
I am glad I even found your post here, I don't really know why I was going through them but saw it and had to respond.
Please take good care,,,,,Leah

Hey Leah - Thanks for the post! Things have been going so much better here, praise God. I finally got up the courage to have a talk with a family member that I really needed to have, and I feel like a weight has been lifted off my mind! It really helps me to get things off my chest & really helps to control the anxiety too. I wish you the best - I am trying not to read & access these threads so much these days because sometimes just reading other people's anxieties gets mine going again, but I do like to check in with the people I have gotten to know. I will keep you in my prayers...Marirose
