Dear Wannabeme,
I am a Christian - and, am assuming you are, also.
I like what you said about we will go to great beyond in His time not ours! Let go and Let God, I agree. However, we all know that while we are having a full blown panic attack and have stayed in our houses, perhaps, for five days straight; just knowing that the absolute moment we step out the door 'something totally freaky will happen - we will immediately panic go out of control, everything will be distorted, we will 'certainly' go 'insane' and all the while the neighbors are watching and are saying, "...we knew all the while she/he/they were weirdos..." So, we rush back in our safe house.
Just kidding, of course. I think daily affirmations are really good. One could say to one's self, "I am just fine. I am healthy. I am doing the best I can. God loves me. I am 'not' going to die from a panic attack - I will work as hard as I can to try and get a handle on this thing and be proud of myself for what ever progress I make - even if it is just to get out of the house and walk half way down the street and back. I am doing just fine!"
Bye for now,
Maria
