I was a messed up Christian going to a catholic school with the same message over and over every year, they never changed anything or preached from the heart, it was so boring and unchallenging to my faith. I then went to public highschool and fell out of god and church(like many kids do). Last year I had so much stress, anxiety, sadness in my life I had a full blown panic attack, and got on Pristiq and am fine. But during that time also I found God and Jesus again thanks to my friend taking me to his baptist church. I love the church I go too and you can tell he preaches from his heart and means what he says. I've learned that to get to heaven we must be saved and believed Jesus died for our sins and rose again. I am much happier and I hope you find the same happiness ![]() ![]() |

I think it's mainly the death thing. Like..i'm taking other people's views on death and the afterlife, just to make myself feel better. >:| ![]() |

Am I thinking your afraid of death cause your young, and haven't lived your life to your full potential, and know there is more to do? I think most of us fear death due to the fact that we have so many things undone and don't want to miss a thing on earth, and seeing our friends and family. ![]() |

You are not alone for years I fought with this fear of dying..I don't know why but I did..It got really bad in 1997 when I ended up losing six members in my family within a year of each other..This included my mom and both her parents,her brother and so on..Every night I would go to sleep or try to sleep I would wake or couldn't sleep because of this fear of death..I still fight it every now and then, but my faith has helped some..I think recently it has come back because of some of my medical issues..But honestly I find that prayer and faith get me through it..I'm not trying to push religion down your throat but this is just how I deal with it..I wish the best for you and hope you find some way to deal with it..I know how hard it is and I'm sure other people out there do to..If you ever need to talk or just need someone to listen I am here.. ![]() |

Psy Guy so glad and praise God that you found him..I grew up in a messed up religion and about two years ago my husband and me were trying to find a good church and we were at our nephews birthday party when my husbands cousin aproached us and invited us to his church.I was stand offish about it but ended up going and fell in love with it..It is a Baptist church and our pastor does speak from his heart and thats what I love about it, and the people there have become our extended family..Since then I was saved and baptised and have finally found peace with alot of issues in my life.. ![]() |

PsyGuy- It's definitely a part of it. I also have a lot of emotional issues that serve as road blocks when they really shouldn't, so i haven't experienced much of life.![]() |

Hi the best advice I can give you is start reading the bible in the book of matthew. Now its ok if your not a believer, heck I wasn't either for thirty five years. But I will tell you after reading much of the New Testament that as I say began in the book of Matthew, I have peace. Lord knows I needed this peace when my husband died last year. If you need to talk to me I'm sending you my email addy, feel free to email me just put usm in the subject line. Deb ![]() |

After being there every second as my husband died at home, cancer, I just can't tell you how peacefull it was because you see he was a believer, he is the one that told me about the Lord and the Peace that surpasses all understanding and I listened, thank God I listened as he was smiling up to the very morning he died. While being out of it for two days in the hosptial before he got to come home, I knew he was somewhere else. Look for my post about this time. And he couldnt wait to get back to where he was before the doctors woke him up. Praise Jesus. ![]() |

Even though the love of adventure, curiosity, and the dread of monotony are traits inherent in human nature, they were not made a part of our personalities just to aggravate and annoy us during our life on this earth. These traits were put in place rather to suggest to you that death is only the beginning of an endless career of adventure, an everlasting life of anticipation, and an eternal voyage of discovery.Life is a career of experience, and in any experience things can go wrong, but that is why they are calld expeiences. Live, laugh, and love in your life and you can't go wrong. |
