Please pray for me

[Hope4me2018]

I just woke up and so many thoughts jumped me at once! Finances, work, songs in my head, replaying life events, scared of bad things happening and just not wanting to put on the face and go to work. I try to reverse the negative thoughts and remind myself that to be grateful for what I have. I’m really ready to get back to feeling half way decent. I don’t want to be depressed anymore. I’m fighting. Please pray for me and I pray that all of you on here find peace within yourself and fight for your life! The devil is a liar!!!

the great thing is you woke up to battle another day. one day at a time. make sure to get some exercise in sometime today so that your brain will release what I like to call happy juice.

Thank you for your encouraging words and your absolutely right! I will go and walk in my lunch today.

i repeat a mantra or affirmation to block out thoughts i don't want. or i'll say something stupid like don't think about turtles, because of course you'll think about whatever youre trying not to and it blocks other thoughts out.

Absolutely, he is. Perhaps this will help - consider a grateful journal. Start it short and simple, like Day 1-1 thing you are grateful for, Day 2-2 things, etc. Try to work up to 5 without repeating. It helps focus your mind on the good and makes the "bad" seem not so bad. Being grateful strengthens us, makes us more resilient and able to bounce back when we hit a valley. Prayers for peace and strength.
