Very anxious and depressed

My blood pressure quite high. I feel too much dread and anxiety. Trying to let go and let God so to speak and so far feels like I got a truckload of led on my chest.

Unbreakmyheart, please call your doctor and follow his advice.

Let him know about your b/p being so high as well as what you

are feeling in your chest. This is something your doctor needs

to address. x

I have noticed that its exactly the blood pressure that causes anxiety for me. Have you found source of your bp,? Do you do something to lower it? Like exercises etc?

Aparently anxiety itself has not been linked to high blood pressure ( permanent or chronic)

You are on your way to the solution! What ever your problems are the BEST thing that you can do is that...Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you 1 Peter 5:7. For believers this is ever so powerful and it truly changes things, usually our perspective, and thereby how we deal with our situation because we know that we do our part and God will take care of the rest making it all ok as His will for us. It may not be the outcome we want but it will be the outcome we need and because we know He loves us and always has our best interest in mind we accept, trust, and thank God for the outcome.

Unbreakmyheartseeker, keep praying! God's word instructs us to pray without ceasing. To give thanks in every circumstance, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:17. His promises never fail us no matter what happens and He promises to never leave us nor forsake us Deuteronomy 31:6.

I have faced 2 years of gut wrenching heartbreak, disappointment, despair, loss, strife in my home, financial losses, and I know (not wish, hope, doubt) that God is using it all for my good again as He promised. Many of those things that seemed horrific at the time to me I now look back on and understand why and have watched Him use it to refine me and prepare me. He gives me a peace that surpasses all understanding, that is hard for me to explain, but those around me see it, feel it, and hear it. Keep leaning on his word because it will NEVER disappoint. People will disappoint us but not God. I will include you in my prayers and am here if you want to share and communicate :)

Hi Oneseedatatime. I’m a wretched case. Been in and out of hospital but found they only poison me more. Been under doctor’s care since workplace toxicity permanently disabled me. No one understands what I’m going through. My friends, my wife, all treat me awful. my family (live several thousand kilometers from me) are unable to help me, in fact my half brother despises me and thinks because Im disabled Im lazy and a burden to society. I’m ashamed to say but I was mob style bullied out of my job, my career and since age 55 I have been disabled from work because of the toxic levels of mental/physical abuse and traumas that happened.

Thank you for your prayers. I wish I had a brother that loved me, I love my brother but like I said he hates me. My friend who called me his brother is mean to me as well, since I was bullied from my job. I’m a very broken man. Please pray for me. I’m so depressed I think I’m going to die of my broken heart and often go to bed hoping to die in my sleep.

I cast my cares to my Father but His Children seem to hate me. I love people and people used to love me because I was very kind, generous person. Had worked as a bus yard supervisor for almost 10 years-but now no one wants anything to do with me. My wife has asked me to move out and I have not the strength to pack up and go and my heart hurts so bad because of my losses.

My friend, I'm glad you wrote. I've been concerned. You have an immense amount of

stress going on. It's not true that "no one wants anything to do with you", we do because we care. I don't know what happened that turned your life upside down and

everyone against you. We don't judge. We support each other. One step at a time.

No you are no such thing of the kind. That is Satan and his master manipulation leading you to believe and say those things. It is unfortunate to be mistreated by others but if we believe in and trust God's word than we must remember that our savior was mistreated too by His Father's children so we are no exemption.

God's love is the ONLY true love that we need and need to learn to desire over anything or anyone.

You are never too far from our God, his redemption, and UNCONDITIONAL love. Keep seeking him, praise Him no matter what your situation. Read the story of Job, I do often, and am reminded of God's goodness when we cling on to His TRUTH not what we see or feel.

Yes of course I will continue to pray for you, I will pray that you will seek our Lord's love and truth with ALL your heart!
