> I wanted to add to the following post. I hope I did not sound insensitive to those who are struggling with pain or other physical disorders. I know that living with physical or mental pain can lead to depression and cause a feeling of dispair. I also wanted to add, that as long as we are on this earth we will have bad days. Days that can cause anxiety and depression. But there again, Jesus is the answer. The Bible says He is our Comforter and Healer. I just wanted to share what answers I have found. I hope they will be received and someone will be blessed by them. I also believe that Jesus is the answer for physical, mental and emotional pain. He is the Great Physician!

Even though I don't know you, I feel a common bond with each of you. I can sense your pain and anguish. My heart goes out to each and every one of you. I use to suffer from anxiety, fear and depression all my life for as long as I can remember up until 10 years ago. I would drink alcohol until I was stupid just to relax and feel normal. Then one awesome and wonderful day I came to know the Lord Jesus intimately and as my personal savior; I became a Christian. His power and love for me has set me free from the chains and bondages I had in my life. He litterally transformed me inside/out. Where there was darkness there is now light. My husband, too suffered greatly with fear and anxiety, which would lead to depression. He was a Christian, but had grown bitter and cold to the Lord because of a major betrayal someone had done to him. I believe he experienced the darkness because he had taken his eyes off of Jesus and no longer sought the Lord for deliverence and forgiveness. He went to a couple of pdocs and of course they wanted to treat him with a pill. After doing much research on the meds, he was too afraid to continue taking them because of all the side effects and risks. He has since then overcome the fear, anxiety and depression. He realized that he could do all things through Christ and realizing the feelings and thoughts he was having was irrational and not reality. For example, he would walk into a room and think that everyone was looking at him, or be afraid to speak, for fear he would say something stupid; to hear him tell it, he lived an utter night mare (hell if you will) any time he would be in a social setting. I even sensed he felt that way around me at times. There is hope, and Jesus is the answer. Satan has counterfit ways to overcome fear and anxiety, but his counterfit will only temporarily treat the symptoms and cover up the problem, and also comes with a price, when all along, he, Satan, is the root cause of the darkness in ones life. If you do not know the Lord, please ask Him into your heart and life. Confess your need for His strength, love and forgiveness in your life to overcome sin and darkness. He will hear your prayer and come into your life. Begin to read the Bible, starting in the New Testament. Find a full gospel church that has not been labeled a "cult". Ask the Lord to guide you and to bring people into your life that will be an encouragement to you and mentor you in His awesome Word, the Bible. I feel a love for each and every one of you, and I know it is the heart of the Lord who wants to reach out to each and every one of you. My daughter has not chosen to do this, but I know one day she will. May the Lord richly bless you and guide you into perfect peace.

Jan, how you doing!!!! Ill tell you no one has prayed more than me the last 8 months or so. Im truly happy the lord has cured your problems. He has helped me so much also. But I believe he gave someone the knowledge to make that little pill to help me get better. So if I understand you right you would not go to the doctor for any illness. Blood pressure, broken leg, diabetes, some kind of infection or anything. You would just pray it away!!!! In a lot of cases and I will say most this is an illness like any other. Im not trying to be mean!!!! I will just leave it there and say GOD bless you and I pray your daughter gets better!!!!
