  • Do you suffer from anxiety attacks?
    Then you don't want to miss out a minute of this hard-hitting (and revealing) video on how to beat anxiety in your life.
    Two weeks ago, Salt Strong co-founder published a podcast about his struggles with anxiety and alcohol... it was one of the most downloaded podcast episodes - you can listen here: www.saltstrong.com/articles/s...
    It also resulted in a TON of questions about his breathing techniques and other tips to eliminate anxiety attacks (or at least subdue them).
    So Joe got in front of the camera to outline his biggest mistakes (that caused more anxiety) along with his 3 big secrets that finally combined to help him overcome it.
    You can see the full blog (along with a 30-day eliminate anxiety challenge) here:

    Anxiety happens when you think you have to figure out everything all at once . Breathe . You're strong . You got this . Take it day by day .

    For past eight years I have been suffering from severe anxiety attacks. Recently, it has increased to the point where I wake up feeling like I am dying. All I am surrounded with is death thoughts. I feel like I am fainting and I don't exist in this reality. However, watching this video and reading all the comments makes me feel really better. It's very important to channel feelings to the right place. If anyone is reading, please pray for me so that I can overcome these attacks.

A naturopath? They can find parasites or things like this that can cause the attacks. Praying for you!! One day at a time. I got off meds and got rid of my panic attacks. It takes time.

      Anika you got this. Confront it and don't run from it. Its difficult, but not impossible. Everything start with a thought, when negatives thoughts come to your mind confront it and say its just a thought its not real, Im ok, nothing is going to happen to me. Try to get professional help to help you go thru this. God had not given you a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a healthy mind. I had felt the same way as you many times. Im continues to fight it . Im getting better every day. This takes times, lots of prayers and lots of practice. Anxiety do not kill anyone. You will not die. Its just anciety. Practice deep breathing exercice, this will calm you down, but if it you dont get better, please consult a doctor. God bless.

    I suffered severe depression several years ago. I could remember several years ago after divorce with my wife which brought me into my disastrous journey on Alcohol and cigarettes. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd.
    Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Much respect to mother nature the great magic shrooms.

      @@jamesgill9223 (22 and daily marijuana smoker and nicotine user) just got my first anxiety attack 3 days ago and went to the hospital because I thought it was a heart attack {150+ bpm} and it lasted hours and hours. Doctors ran 3 blood tests and kept me there due to my heart spiking every few second intervals. Even as I drifted off to sleep in the hospital I would be awoken by a huge spike looking at the monitor it would read 100+ jumping from low 50s. X-rays, ultra sound said I was healthy. My biggest fear is a heart attack and it doesn’t help I’ve had back pain for the last 3 days(worst fucking coincidence) . I do workout and keep a healthy diet with a low body fat %. I believe my fear is more irrational than anything else. Since my first attack I’ve put down the nicotine and weed.
      Went to work today and at work the panic hit me in the train and almost hit me at work (felt it creeping up and managed to calm down), now unsure if it has anything to do with my vices. I’m really hoping I can learn something from this video. Any progress with you?

    The part where you mentioned how those who struggle with anxiety always have an escape route hit home. I haven't been able to sit in the middle of a pew at church in almost a year and the back corner has become my safe space. I'm in my bestfriend's wedding this weekend as a bridesmaid and the thought of standing up there with no escape route has put me into a panic mode for the last couple of weeks. This video made me feel so much less alone! I am a Christian and to hear this topic dissected by a person of faith is so moving. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much for this video ❤️ God bless you . Y’all, please pray for me. Being a first time mom amidst a pandemic (I’m also a hypochondriac) has really impacted my anxiety/depression. He was about 6 months old and the world LITERALLY stopped. At first, I thought it was great. Being told to stay home. As a shy/anxious girl this was a DREAM! My husband did all the outings/shopping. I think all the isolation has worsened my anxiety. I’m fearful I’ll NEVER be able to return to a normal life . I’ve gotta get better for my son. Nobody understands unless they’ve been there.

    I lost my job due to panic attacks. I was diagnosed in November with Panic Disorder. The biggest impact that has been made on me thus far is what you said, “What is your mission” I hadn’t been able to get employed because after I lost my job I felt as though I lost my identity and that has been what’s keeping me stuck.
    EDIT: I kept strong, with the thought of being better each day doing something to keep my mind occupied and being relentless in trying to get back to being able to live a normal life. Eventually it became just a small voice in the back of my head that I would kinda laugh at. My mission was to survive, and I did. I survived and I’m still surviving against all odds and against my own mental health.

    About to be 32 years old and started developing anxiety while driving on highways. It's so weird because my entire life I have been find driving on highways, then all of a suddent it pops up. I'd like to consider myself a mentally strong person but Man do I have a respect for people who deal with anxiety on a daily basis. It does not matter how mentally strong you are but when a panic attack happens you feel extremely vulnerable. I will fight and overcome this because I will NOT allow this to control my life.
    Edit:
    I am able to drive on the highway now. I found out that alcohol and caffeine where the culprits of my high way anxiety. I've completely cut back on Coffee and limited alcohol to once a week. It's help immensely :)

      @@ItzDuhkota Reduce negative thoughts with a simple practice. Your breath is directly related to your mind [brain] causing negative thoughts-anxiety. For a relaxed life sit on a chair, back straight, eyes closed, be as still as possible and observe the sensations of your incoming--outgoing breath at the entrance of the nostrils for around 5-10-15 minutes or more. Don’t fight your thoughts. Slowly the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Day or night before sleep sit or lie down on your back and observe your breath. Like me, make this a lifetime daily habit to have a good life. Avoid constipation as it affects the mind instantly. Best wishes Shyaaam Sir. -Counsellor.

    Thank you so much for this video. I am 24 years old and had my first panic attack towards the end of May so this is new territory for me. Since then, my life has completely changed. I have them constantly now and the symptoms fluctuate. I have had tachycardia, chest pain, feelings of tightness in the chest area, breathlessness, uncontrollable shaking and overall feeling of impending doom and fear for my life. It has restricted me from enjoying many activities and has completely changed my personality from a happy adventurous person to a secluded fearful and apprehensive one. I feel like the help people like us receive from our loved ones is limited because they don’t completely understand the magnitude of the issue and don’t treat it like a real illness. I don’t want to take meds and I am tired of allowing my anxiety and panic attacks get the best of me. I want my life back. Thank you so much for taking the time and doing this video to help. Sending prayers to everyone who is going through this and please now that we are not alone.

I was enjoying with the picture taking, happy....when suddenly my mood changed. I Sat down and lost control. It was scary, I started panicking. Everything around me was unrecognizable. I even didn't know myself. I began to feel like I was about to faint, made me more scared about everything. I was fighting with that feeling not to faint so I shouted asking for hot compress, water to drink, a massage at my back. It took a while for that crazy feeling to end. I went to the toilet, my stomach was feeling so bad. I vomited. I got so so scared that I asked my papa to take me to the hospital and everything about my vital signs, blood pressure, ECG....all normal.

    I’m currently 14 years old, had anxiety since I was 10. I have several other conditions that affect me physically. Ever since Covid-19 it’s just gotten worse and I’ve had my first panic attack a few months ago. My parents don’t really understand and I don’t have many friends who I can talk to about this. This video is really helpful though, lately my anxiety has been getting worse and caused me some other health problems but I feel like if I start early right now when I’m still young I might be able to manage it more easily. I’ve tried to push thoughts away so often but they would constantly come back and annoy me. This video has given me a different perception, so I’ll take these tips into consideration.
    Update 11/2/22: Since I’ve been getting a lot of replies on this for some reassign, I’ve decided to update. I’m 15 and in highschool now, 10th grade. My anxiety has gotten somewhat better and I haven’t had a panic attack ever since I originally commented. I still get bad anxiety prior to stuff that sets off my fight or flight, like interviews, presentations, but somehow I’m able to hide it better and relax once it’s over with. I don’t know if I would say things have been gotten better but I learned how to manage it on my own.

      Hi Ryan,
      My battle with anxiety began during a bout with covid. I got over the illness in two days (aches, chills, fatigue), then the anxiety, panic and insomnia set in for the next 24 days. I wanted to crawl out of my own body. Regulating my breathing and ignoring the pressure in my chest was impossible. I couldn't eat, had acute dry mouth. Couldn't sit for more than five minutes. I paced my house night and day. Couldn't stand to be in a car. Had a full on panic attack. God was with me, but it was hard to feel him. I couldn't cry because then I couldn't breathe. I felt like a prisoner in my own body and mind. God was still on the throne. I feel 95% better. My healing came, and so did my commitment to be closer to Him each and every day. God is still God, and he loves me. Amen.
      This is what I did....
      1. If you believe in Jesus,and He is your Lord and Savior, say this scripture out loud until your health is restored completely. Do not give up, and trust Him. Jeremiah 17:14 - Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.
      If you are not a believer, but want to give Jesus a shot, He can save you and heal you. Read this scripture and ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and come into your heart and be your Lord and Savior. then pray Jeremiah 17:14. Romans 10:9-10 Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.
      2. Look up “powerful prayers for healing in your body” on a channel called Evangelist Gabriel Fernandez. I used this day and night.
      3. Listen to and fall asleep while listening to prayers found on channel called Grace for Purpose.
      4. Learn how to reset your vagus nerve. I used the techniques taught by Sukie Baxter (she’s on TH-cam). This helped me regulate my breathing and brought a sense of calm I hadn’t felt in almost a month.
      5. Read and repeat out loud Psalm 91. Until you believe it and embrace it as truth in your own life.
      6. I listened to Christian music all day until it filled my soul with God’s presence.
      7. Don’t give up. God loves you and He is with you. He will heal you.

It's a challenge and a journey but knowing that others are struggling too gives me hope that we can all overcome this. Have faith and fight the good fight. We're not alone.

    I stumbled on your video today and got really inspired because I too struggled with anxiety (still do from time to time) and can totally relate to some of things you learned during your struggle. I tried anxiety meds for the first time before an important teambuilding workshop and they made my mind so foggy that I embarrassed myself in front of my peers by not being able to articulate my points clearly. They might be OK if you want to sit around your house all day, but for a busy person on the go they aren't the answer. At least they weren't for me. And I think you're spot on with your breathing techniques. It's absolutely incredible that something so simple can be so powerful. One thing that worked wonderfully for me too, and still does, is a good dose of endorphins prior to an important social setting. Workout hard for 30-60 minutes and it's nearly impossible to be anxious over the little things that might have otherwise made me very anxious. One more thing: When you mentioned alcohol makes you anxious, were you referring to the after-effects (hangover) or while intoxicated, because the hangover for me most definitely made/makes me very anxious, but not while actually drinking. Thanks for video. I think I'll buy your book now. Take care.

    3 Secrets:
    1) Breathing from the belly. Inhale for 4 exhale through the mouth for 6 or 8 secs
    2) Have a goal or mission in you life
    3) Faith in God and yourself that you can overcome this. One thing you can control is your mindset. Maybe this is happening for a reason. Maybe I’ll use this to help others. Everything happens for a reason. Become grateful for anxiety attacks. Gratitude journals, grateful for whatever good is happening in my life.
    I see my errors. I hate this anxiety and depression. I don’t see a purpose in it all. No meaning of it all. It all has felt personal,random, like I’m targeted or being punished for my sins. I have no idea why God this is happening in my life, but I’m grateful that it’s here. God I can’t wait for you to show me why this has all happened.

    • @misskim2058
      @misskim2058 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      So true! A goal or purpose is huge. Every day, I have to find even a little thing I do for someone else, if that’s all it can be, at least something. It’s that “adrift at sea” feeling that adds sheer terror to life. And for those who invite God to reach his arm down to pull them up (rather than keep trying to climb out of the pit alone!, he will send what we need swiftly. We do need to ask for the eyes to see what he sends, if, like new, one can be a little blind to helpful people. It was so rare, I didn’t know how to identity such people. And we need the wisdom to obey asap, as he times things well, and take that door he opened, because it will lead somewhere better. And if we mess up and miss it, take a wrong turn or miss hearing him, he is ever faithful to fix it. God is great at taking something that was bad, and even what was intentionally meant for bad, and turning it into something amazing. The Bible is full of stories where God turns the worst mess into something for the benefit of his faithful, and for his Glory.
      God will take the helm when we are adrift, and for all those who think they want to be captain of their own ship....fair enough, but GOD has all the maps, knows the uncharted territories, where the storms and icebergs will be, and much better places to go. That’s one reason why the Bible says to humble ourselves. We benefit when we stop thinking we need to know how to do the unknowable, or that we have to steer our own ship because we were all programmed, indoctrinated into that “DIY/pull yourself up by your own bootstraps” mentality. It’s wrong, dangerous, and just stupid...and God never meant for us to live that way. We aren’t supposed to be independent.
      That was a very harmful mindset from the dreaded field of psychology, (loaded with pseudoscience). Talk “therapy” should be limited, we shall have what we say. So...don’t marinate in the past. See it, face it, you won’t ever make it right or clear it perfectly, so cut it free..and then psychology came up with the derogatory word “codependent”, as if it were a bad thing. God called wants community. It is not good for man to be alone, says God. It was the first thing he said that wasn’t good (in Genesis). We are SUPPOSED TO BE codependent. It’s a GOOD thing. Sure, not in a crippling way, but we aren’t to be independent in a crippling way, either, and I’ve been a crippled independent my whole life. It never occurred to me that anyone WOULD ever help, so why would I think to ask?
      And that is some seriously messed-up thinking. We need each other, and we need God. And before I found God, and was still exploring, as it were, I made the gigantic, horrifying mistake of asking to be shown what it would be like for those who tried to refuse Heaven or hell, or the “offered options”, for those new age and pagan people who teach that they’ll just not do either, but go off and create their own existence.
      I still have had massive anxiety attacks from that. There IS NO creation without God. They’d be in the equivalent of a broken holodeck. Or as if buried alive, 1,000 miles beneath the earth, with no way to die and no way to contact anyone or anything...forever. Without God, there’s just nothing, and we are NOT creators, we use his breath every second of the day, and that’s why we must mind what we say. We are saying it with HIS breath. He breathed into man, not into anything else. We have taken his name when we accepted his invitation to his family and to salvation, and Jesus never said or did anything that God didn’t tell him to say or do. That’s serious restraint. And we are to be like him and do like him, EVERYTHING (John 14:12, that’s everyone who believes in him and leans all the way on him, it’s not for just “priests”, and such, which he abolished on the day of Crucifixion anyway, temple veils torn, he destroyed the veil, anyone still using it is...misled and wrong. What God has put together, let no man put asunder, but it works the other way as well… What God has torn asunder but no man try to put back together, either...and if Satan brought something together, like a horrible marriage that was not drawn by God or conducted before him, then it’s not something God brought together, so it can be torn asunder if it’s from hell)...so we are to do all wirks he did, all means all, and the world would be vastly different if that had always been the case, all Christians has always been cleansing the lepers, healing, raising the dead, and casting out demons, not just caring for the poor, and teaching people about the Father and salvation)...We are to do it all, except the Crucifixion, which we can’t do because Jesus is the only sinless one. The 4 Gospels outline our instructions. John already told us if they wrote it all down, the world couldn’t hold all the books, so...they took their notes from traveling with Jesus, took the best examples, and left us their instructions. Jesus taught them to do everything he did and then said “go, make disciples of them all”...and we had religiousity try to strip true Christians of this. Counterfeit religions DO strip this power away, but non-denominations do NOT.
      We have big shoes to fill, Jesus said in John 14:12 he had extremely high expectations of anyone who claimed to believe in him.
      So, anyway, God allowed me to experience that nightmare of being completely cut off from him...not even atheists are as yet, all humans still are connected to him...but one day, they will get what they demanded, total cut off from God. Then they’ll easily see his hand in everything...too late.
      That was 4 hours of sheer terror, and then God made himself known, and no way would I want a second away from him now. Never.
      So, people can try to be our own captain, and navigator... but we win when we shut up and let Abba Father steer the ship.

I already had anxiety before I had my 2 kids and I just had my second one. And let me tell you it is the worst feeling. Not only dealing with hormonal imbalance and recovering mentally but on top of that dealing with anxiety is just the cherry on top for chaos. Little by little it’s getting better , I pray a lot and take Ashwaghanda for the stress and adrenaline I get from anxiety and it has helped so much. I’m happy to know I’m not the only one going through this. I’m hopeful all of the people in the comments also going through this , will overcome this challenge. We’re strong and just like this disorder that seems like it’s taking over us seems like it’s stronger , it won’t take over our life’s !!!

    You are a true inspiration. Have been copping with anxiety and OCD since i know myself, even as a kid. Some periods in life 3-5 years i lived without anxiety, but from like my late teenage years till now(i am 25 years old) i started to get really bad thoughts and constant anxiety that literally almost ruined my whole life. Drugs and alcohol abuse and so on, you know the story. Anxiety made me felt like everyone is my enemy and since i am stubborn, i used the wrong methods to cope with it.. I practiced street life and I alienated myself from this world, it hurt my soul really bad. It is really hard, because it makes you hurt people you love. But after i saw this video, I started writing my first 'gratitude' notes and I hope things get better.

Don’t fight your thoughts. Slowly the mind will relax. No deep breathing needed. Day or night before sleep sit or lie down on your back and observe your breath.

    Been there, brother. Alcohol is a terrible thing for people with anxious tendencies. Years ago, if I drank too much, I could hardly drive a car the following day and even just going outside of the house was a struggle. Forget about being around people or doing any sort of critical thinking. Giving it up was a massive help for me, too. 90% of all fleeting anxious thoughts and physical sensations disappeared when I was 2-3 weeks from the last drink. There is a reason the why the Word says that people led astray by drink are not wise… you stunt your own growth and power when you drink. One of the best sayings I’ve heard about drinking is that it is the practice of “stealing a little happiness from tomorrow”. Well, ain’t that the truth. The problem is that continued use steals more and more happiness from the following day until there is nothing left but crippling and painful anxiety. Thank you for sharing your wisdom! 🎣

      My battle with anxiety began during a bout with covid. I got over the illness in two days (aches, chills, fatigue), then the anxiety, panic and insomnia set in for the next 24 days. I wanted to crawl out of my own body. Regulating my breathing and ignoring the pressure in my chest was impossible. I couldn't eat, had acute dry mouth. Couldn't sit for more than five minutes. I paced my house night and day. Couldn't stand to be in a car. Had a full on panic attack. God was with me, but it was hard to feel him. I couldn't cry because then I couldn't breathe. I felt like a prisoner in my own body and mind. God was still on the throne. I feel 95% better. My healing came, and so did my commitment to be closer to Him each and every day. God is still God, and he loves me. Amen.
      This is what I did....
      1. If you believe in Jesus,and He is your Lord and Savior, say this scripture out loud until your health is restored completely. Do not give up, and trust Him. Jeremiah 17:14 - Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed; save me and I will be saved, for you are the one I praise.
      If you are not a believer, but want to give Jesus a shot, He can save you and heal you. Read this scripture and ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and come into your heart and be your Lord and Savior. then pray Jeremiah 17:14. Romans 10:9-10 Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved.
      2. Look up “powerful prayers for healing in your body” on a channel called Evangelist Gabriel Fernandez. I used this day and night.
      3. Listen to and fall asleep while listening to prayers found on channel called Grace for Purpose.
      4. Learn how to reset your vagus nerve. I used the techniques taught by Sukie Baxter (she’s on TH-cam). This helped me regulate my breathing and brought a sense of calm I hadn’t felt in almost a month.
      5. Read and repeat out loud Psalm 91. Until you believe it and embrace it as truth in your own life.
      6. I listened to Christian music all day until it filled my soul with God’s presence.
      7. Don’t give up. God loves you and He is with you. He will heal you.

Tingling from head to toe like I'll pass out. What do I do? Start walking and don't stop. I pinch my face so hard I feel I might puncture the skin as this takes my mind off my anxiety.

    I have been battling anxiety and panic for 11 years now, I just want to say thank you for right at this very moment keeping me calm and helping me calm down with this video. It really did help me, I’ve never thanked my anxiety for showing me things that I didn’t know before so I want to thank you for putting that out there and making me aware of that. I subscribed to your channel and will be following you thank you

      I’m so very sorry your dealing with this, I know exactly how you feel. I’ve been dealing with the same exact emotions, same fears, same panic attacks everyday. I’m also afraid of going to the doctors and afraid of what they will say. If you need anyone to talk to we can get in touch. Keep your head up and your mind at ease as much as possible. ❤️

    I resonated with the mention of the gratitude list to overturn the fear and anxiety. I need to do that. I’m so grateful I came across this video 🙏❤️
    I came off of my antidepressants about 4 months ago after almost 20 years of being on it and it’s been rough but I’m glad I did it. Though I get feelings of anxiety and my mind starts to spiral, I’m powering through it.

    Something I've been working on throughout my journey of dealing with anxiety is to not say "my anxiety" and instead to say, the anxiety I am experiencing. Even though it is happening to me, I don't have to take ownership of it. I've also been reading "Feelings Buried Alive Never Die" by Karol K Truman and it's a wonderful tool!

    I am so glad I ran into this video😭 I start treatment in August and I didn’t know what I was going to do and how I was going to cope with my severe anxiety and depression. The video also got me back on track to why I am here on earth😁 I was feeling in a rut..didn’t feel like doing anything and super anxious. I was thinking about just going back to a job I hate to cope. That is not going to help me at all. Hopefully I can pursue my passion with doing TH-cam and grow my channel and hopefully I can get a job I like. I Cannot thank you enough!!♥️Thank you for showing us the secrets😭

      I'm with you. I had a bad experience over 2 months ago that triggered a panic attack and since then I've developed an anxiety disorder. I needed help but didn't know how to ask for it. I finally went to the doctor 2 days Ago but the meds I was given are not really working. But then again I've just started taking them 2 days ago so I have to wait longer to see the benefits but it sucks. It sucks having anxiety when you have never experienced it before and have no clue what to do. I truly hope this video helps you as I pray it helps me too. Take care.

Look up the affects that it has on your brain & especially when it involves anxiety & depression you may be surprised

I can relate to you in the sense that I’m in college and seem to be doing the exact same thing that you described about your college days.

    cannot comprehend living like this for any longer than it takes to get out of it, your mental strength is so great
    you're just after saying that you let anxiety and fear over take you and you saying your heart pounding and sweating and i'm going through that at the moment again, this is maybe the third time that i've had this where it doesnt just go away after a day or two , hopefully ill take in what you say
    EDIT:
    im near the end of your video and you getting choked up about Dan, and honestly, its so true, people dealt a lesser hand in life on average seem to be so happy and thankful for just what they have , I wish I could appreciate more, but im always so stuck in my mind or too busy trying to stimulate.
    I'm coming to terms that I may well have ADHD because it ticks every box and there's no part of it that isn't relevant unless i'm of course in the pit of depression and anxiety which then keeps me down too

    Young man, you have helped me so much today. I have very scary panic attacks that can cause my blood pressure to soar! I am a nurse and I can tell you - I had NO IDEA that a person's BP could go up so high, so fast! In the past month or so, I have gone to the ER 3 times with chest pain, high BP, pressure in my head and tingling arms and legs. Everything checks out and my BP comes down on it's own once I get a grip on myself. I want to manage the anxiety so this doesn't happen again. Right now, I am taking sedatives - but that can't be forever! I will follow your suggestions - I am already doing some of them and agree that they help. It's just great to know that there are others out there and ways that I can help myself without always relying on sedatives. Much love to you and your family. God bless you all!

    This is an absolutely beautiful video - I was crying so much through it - about 6 months ago I started getting strange chest pains and back pains - it scared me - as a lifelong healthy person whom worked out every day and my passion - playing drums in my various bands most weekends - I was scared I was dying or going to keel over any day. Never touched a drug in my life and rarely drank alcohol - After three visits to the ER in as many months getting my heart checked and everything good there - I developed severe anxiety attacks over my daily pains which are still happening - I can hardly play drums now without lots of pain and working out is completely out of the question right now - I have been told that my chest and back pain is from stress and anxiety and an msk issue - so I am going to see a physio and chiropractor next week to see if they can help me through my daily pain - I have gotten a lot closer to God going through this - thanking him for this beautiful life and my two beautiful daughters - I pray daily now and have completely opened up to my friends about my anxiety attacks - and they have been so helpful - and like you said, they were struggling through things I never knew about too - so the conversations have been quite deep but good and healthy! So I am taking this as a massive and painful learning experience that God is putting me through right now - there has to be a reason for it and it's funny when you mentioned gratitude for your anxiety attacks - I started thanking God for them last week because in a strange way I have really grown mentally and emotionally through experiencing them - I have had them 6 months now - incredible how you handled them for 14 years!! Amazing! Faith is what I need more work on and I'm doing my best every day on that :) Have to move forward - God has a plan and I have to trust that! Thank you for your incredibly inspirational video!!!

Like you went to ER couple of times thinking its a heart attack. Got checked and heart is fine. Spoke to a psychiatrist and now getting some medication to help through, while I'm working on the mental issues related to my anxiety. Also trying to get close to God. Just wanted to tell you stay strong, it shall pass
