thank you i guess i am not the only one but when u wake up in the middle of the nite and think what is going to happen to me. i need to stop this and just be in the moment telling myself that i am okey right now right this moment instead of me putting myself in a cronic way of thinking. i don"t need to borrow trouble with my over thinking i guess

Hi Tasha1439. I have a very similar problem of having racing thoughts, overthinking, overanalyzing, and just in general being in my head too much. I like that you mentioned staying in the moment. Try to think of things to be grateful for. We all have positive things in our lives that we tend to take for granted.

I hope you find your peace and comfort. Stay strong. You are not alone.

And I understand that also. If I knew the answers, I'd share, but I'm battling the same enemy. When my anxiety gets really high, nothing seems to help other than distraction. On fair days, simple grounding techniques help.I hope you find your peace.

Hi Tasha - I think the more we hear from others in the same boat, maybe the better able we will be to cope. I'm also dealing with anxiety, and it's the worst when I wake up in the night with it. I know how you feel.

You are not alone, Tasha. I feel this way sometimes, but then I feel the presence of God. Oh he is so good. Please allow him into your life, he loves you more then anyone else. I have to remind myself daily and talk to him. I was never taught how to talk to a man and he is the ONLY Father that loves us as we are. I am here for you. I need you to be here for you too. I love you. God loves you. One step at a time girl.

Anxiety is real but so is Jesus He loves you He died for you. I know from experience exactly what you are going through. If you turn your life over to Him He will help . I have found that Jesus is truly the answer to everything in this life. No this is not about religion at all this is about a relationship.

Please don't be, being scared has its own torment, we are here for you.

I feel you. Being alone was so scary that i returned to a toxic home from a place where i was free and had opportunities. It's really hard. I am alone with family too, i don't have irl friends. It's really an overwhelming feeling and im sorry you're there too. You're not alone in being alone. There's a loneliness pandemic

I am feeling the same way --ALONE & SCARED --I, panicked today & felt SO alone that I called the "Crisis Line," & the stranger on the phone did help me as he just listened, mainly. I lost my Sig. Other a year & one-half ago & he was my Anchor, my support. We had No children, and now I am ALL alone. Worst of all, I am suffering from some health issues, and dental problems, and am Scared & Anxious, and don't know what to do! Oh, I have had therapy for years for my Anxiety Disorders (Panic & OCD), and I Do know what to do, it's just that it's SO Darn hard when one is alone! Deep breathing, grounding, challenge thots., texting friends, etc. help a little bit; but, it's this having NO one that I can count on, NO one for Real support that's what is SO Scary - and being older & Alone. I see with you & other's that we are Not alone in how we feel; but, we that are living alone with little support --It's just such a struggle. Good to be able to post on this site, and to read other's going through similar situations helps some. Hugs & Prayers to All of us.
