Nightmare and a prayer

This morning at around 3am I had a nightmare that woke me up and had me on the verge of a panic attack. I dreamt I was about to have a seizure, I woke up with a tight chest, my mind wondering and feeling numb, I got on my knees and prayed and felt peace after a couple of min of focusing on praying instead of the way I was feeling. It took me a while but I got myself to calm down and go back to bed without fear of it happening again 🙏🏽🙏🏽💕 just wanted to share this today. Praying is what I found to be calming and helpful to get me through panic.

Thank you so much for posting!! Anxiety is so unpredictable. Sometimes it is there and sometimes it is not. I agree with you that prayer helps tremendously. I have Bibles, devotionals, and Christian books around my house so I have easy access to "prayer". Also, the book "Anxiety Cure" has helped me. You might want to check it out. bit.ly/2etHIpo Books like these make me understand that we are not alone. Hope this helps and my prayers are with you today, my friend.
