Something Strange Happened After Someone Prayed For Me by Jackanda1(m): 6:56pm On Feb 10, 2023
Hello, sometime ago, i posted about having anxiety problems which has affected me in the work place.

So after series of struggles, i had thought about terrible self help options including alcohol, cigaretes, and other drugs until i have enough funds to visit a mental health center.

Something in my head keeps telling me to ask for prayers, i ignored it for some time until on monday when i called someone to Pray for me.

On tuesday, nothing changed, i was still timid and anxious. We usually hold a 20min prayer and preachng session every morning.

Any staff can be assigned to preach and pray, i startd avoidng going early so i'm not told to lead, other times, i try alcohol. There had been times were anxiety messed me up in front of co-staffs. I mean I literally have panic attacks when I'm in the spot light.

On wednesday, When i got to work something strange happened...I walked to the prayer room feelng no anxiety at all, i was shocked and excited at the same time. Another suprise is that i was told to preach, which i did without feeling anxious atall, i can now discuss, joke and interact with staffs without any fear...............

whatsover. Since on wednesday, I can now look people in the eye when talking to them, i have suddenly become an extrovert and a talkative jumping from one staff office to another discussing and gisting, you need to see the looks on everyone's face. cheesy
I now feel very comfortable with myself and in social situations.

This were things i wasn't able to do before, i mean for years.

I had crazy panic attacks for years. infact, i had to stay indoors and avoided social events as much as i could.


I'm so excited, now i don't have to live on pills or take alcohol agan.

Jesus healed me.

I'm going through the same depression and anxiety disorder,
I find it very hard now to believe in God and I don't have hope.

If you don't believe that God exists, God wouldn't force Himself on you.

Has nothing to do with any god. You need a shrink. Unfortunately we don't take mental health serious in this part of the world

I can assure you that God does exist. We might not understand his ways, but he's still working.

I was an atheist for for 6 to 7 years,(check the threads on my profile) until i decided to swallow pride, humble myself to seek him. It took me more than two years and crazy demonic attacks to come to a point were i understood that this world is more than what the eye sees.

I had crazy deppression and anxiety, it even got to a point were i was almost mentally unstable. But my constant seeking of God and asking many to Pray for me did the magic.

Atheism doesn't solve the problem, it only takes away you hope(your ability to get Godly and permanent help).

Begin to seek God's help and you would find him. He's a friend and a gentle man. He won't force himself on you.

It is. Unfortunately we dont usually take mental health serious in Nigeria. Because we are religious, we term it spiritual, or demon possession. There are many drugs you need to take, but you need psychiatric evaluation and counseling first. Nigerians think psychiatrists are for 'mad people' alone. Not true. Even 'Sane people' need shrinks.

Christianity is another mental illness on its own. Unfortunately mostly there’s no insight

Thank God...

Don't get carried away though because there are many more hurdles to cross, but God is able to see you through them all.

To be honest, it happens with me too. Though I don't shed tears, what I have is an overpowering feeling of pity at the person
