Am feeling very low and panicky

amberlight · 26/11/2010 12:49

Prayers all round, especially for people feeling low and panicky

CaptainCaveman · 26/11/2010 16:06

Just checking in, dh has a meeting on tuesday with work and his union. I'm praying it goes well and that dh is happy with the outcome.

Mary praying for you. Have you ever checked out the Panic Prevention website? I got a fab cd from them, but I also spent hours in the middle of the night reading things on their site when I've felt panicky before. Google them (((hugs)))

DutchOma · 26/11/2010 17:53

Just checking in quickly and picking up payer pointers.
I went to see Bob this morning and he had a really good breakfast. Then I got home and went to bed. Intending to stay close to it for at least the next 24 hours.
I am going to check out the Panic Prevention too CC, especially in the middle of the night

CaptainCaveman · 26/11/2010 18:38

DO it's fab, really helped me out. Thoroughly recommend their Panic Prevention CD too, I used it in the car a lot Smile. Glad Bob is doing ok, praying for you both.

Teaandcakeplease · 26/11/2010 19:10

My STBXH has lost his job today at the warehouse. He originally lost his job as a youth worker a year ago after the affair came to light, then he spent 10 months on JSA and then he finally found this job a few months ago. It was a relief that he'd finally be supporting me and the 2 DCs well and now he's been let go and I'm feeling so conflicted with Christmas looming and already struggling on benefits. I never asked to become a single parent with 2 toddlers, nor my H to cheat on me and leave me for a 21 yr old friend. I know God is with me but I'm feeling mega stressed with Christmas looming Sad So please can you pray if you have a minute for God's continued provision and for my STBXH to find another job soon. I recently purchased a few treats for the children and now I'm sitting here thinking I should have saved every penny just in case and that money could have been used for something wiser Sad

MaryBS · 26/11/2010 19:48

I could do with some prayers, unrelated to feeling low and panicky, more to do with how I felt last Monday. I feel incredibly let down.

gingercurl · 26/11/2010 20:39

Just checking in to catch up on this thread. Wonderful to read about so many answers to prayer, and sad to see that so many have such pressing needs. Maybe that spiritual attack is still on-going but taking different tack?

Prayers for all on here, especially for those that are worried and fearful. >

praying for you lots.

You too TACP

notsofarnow · 27/11/2010 03:51

i am fed up of being awake at sily hour praying i can go back to bed and sleeeeeeeeeeep.

LoveBeingADaddysGirl · 27/11/2010 05:26

Thank you for your kind words. It's has been a strange week, with lots to do. The Rev is coming this morning to talk about the service. Why does that make it seem more real?

Praying everyone keeps safe x

amberlight · 27/11/2010 07:17

LBADG, not sure why it becomes more real when the Rev turns up, but it does. Keeping that in prayer.

Not sure I've found the right website for the panic prevention thingy??

Praying for everyone who is feeling a bit panicky. And for everyone else too.

MaryBS · 27/11/2010 09:15

(I didn't really get the panic prevention thingy, and I use Ignatian meditation techniques to calm down, which works wonders). Thanks anyway CCM.

Went to the Cathedral this morning, braving the icy roads. It was lovely :)

madhairday · 27/11/2010 10:16

LB, hope it goes ok with the vicar, praying for peace for you.

Mary so glad you enjoyed the cathedral, have been keeping you in my prayers overnight.

I'm struggling with stuff too here so would appreciate prayer.

DutchOma · 27/11/2010 11:01

I don't think I got the PP either. I'm not very good at meditation yet, but managed to get to sleep again at 7.00. Had turned the phone off, so Bob got thoroughly worried because I wasn't answering at 10.00.

CaptainCaveman · 27/11/2010 11:27

Post arrived for dh and it's the minutes of the meetings his work have held with 'witnesses' and its a witch hunt Sad. Much of it dodgy tbh but one or two people who allege they heard him say to the cleaner that it was ok for her to use her husband . Poor dh is in bits and I'm not much better. He's speaking to his union rep on Monday but thats the whole weekend for him to brew over it. I just don't know how to help him . It's so awful what they are doing, he's a very decent chap who has made the company shed loads of savings in the last 6 years. Yet they haven't asked a single person (except for those who gave statements to say he had done this) for a character reference. I'm really angry too Angry.
Please could you pray for dh and I over the next few days? He should have his investigation hearing on tuesday at 10am. Very sad, angry and worried too

TooBlessed2spendxmasalone · 27/11/2010 11:29

Mary so nice that you were ok, about the panicking,,prayers for the other

LBADG thats because it is real,just remember whose child you are,a child of God,and He is with you all the way,,

praying for everyone here,,

amberlight · 27/11/2010 12:11

Praying...

madhairday · 27/11/2010 16:49

Praying CC. That's horrible :(

jaffacakeaddict · 27/11/2010 19:48

Prayers for all. CC and TACP I'll pray that the employment situations work out OK. I do believe that God works in mysterious ways and that what may seem bad at one time can work out to be much better in the long run. A few years I was made redundant from my job. Inertia had set in and I don't think I'd have left the job without it. As it was, even although I was upset at the time the job that I got has turned out to be much better. I believe that God was in charge throughout.

Teaandchristmascakeplease · 27/11/2010 21:30

Thank you ladies, feeling rotten with a nasty cold today and exhausted.

jaffacakeaddict · 27/11/2010 22:18

Prayers please for a friend - she's 38 weeks pregnant and snowed in!

Teaandchristmascakeplease · 28/11/2010 10:41

As if I haven't got enough money worries my car wouldn't start for church this morning and I'm waiting for the RAC, please pray it's not expensive Sad

CaptainDippy · 28/11/2010 11:13

I hope it isn't either TACP Sad xx

You know where I am CC. Smile xx

How is Bob doing DO? xx

Eeeek for your friend Jaffa - praying for no early labour!!!!!!!!

I do like Snow Grin I shall go and frolic in it later Grin
