Late Night Anxiety

Hello guys,


hope you are all having a good night and had a good weekend full of good vibes, advances and lessons.


I write this post because my week plus weekend were filled of anxiety and stress. I have been a bit sick and getting over it but I just cannot shake the darn anxiety that comes when I am sick. I feel as if though I am hypersensitive and my nervous system seems to be going into high alert. I hear a small sound and it rattles me. I usually get the anxiety when everyone else is sleeping and when I know I have to go to work the next day. It has been to the point where I just feel like crying. Like it is a lot to bear. Just today I started going with this guy to study the bible and learn more about it since it interests me and I never had the chance to learn anything from it. I was very calm and at peace when I was with him and then out of no where I started doubting my self and started thinking negatively on my drive home. 



Is anyone on here religious and do they find that religion has worked for you?


How does one pray? 


If you are religious how is it that you cope with anxiety, what are some thoughts that calm you?


Well I guess you don't have to be religious in that last questions, I just want to know what helps calm some of you. 


As I write this I notice that typing my emotions helps me. hmmmm.

TBH I am not religious, however I did grow up catholic. I wont go inteo details of why I dont associate with being catholic, but that doesnt mean I am not spiritual. There are some strictness or certain veiwpoints i came across that didnt align with me... (THATS JUST ME) so, what I did was I still use little rituals Ive learned etc. like blessings for people I love, counting things im grateful for etc. Since you asked how does one pray? I dont think theres a certain way for prayer... I think you just speak from your heart, unfiltered truths and asking God to help you or thank him for whatever your thankful for. You can also find ALOT of prayer books with prayers... Ive been given a lot of them lol! so Im sure you can find something that can guide you :) hope that helps and warm hugs!

    The best antidepressant is when my wishes are honored. An example, the faucet in my apartment was running although the knobs were turned shut all the way, and one of the pulling strings on my ceiling fan came off. As soon as I notified my maintenance man, he was quick to reply with the work order. RAPID response... he's getting my services around my apartment done. I appreciate my landlord and...

    Hello,so I'm currently in a weird relationship with my long distance ex who I've never met in person and it's taking a toll on me. I've lost 15 pounds and lost my appetite, but I'm really attached to him. We've had a lot of problems and I think that has caused me to gain severe anxiety. I don't know if I should wait until it gets better or what. Everytime I've blocked him, it has tend to make me...
