Re: I know something's wrong, but don't know how to fix it
Someone once said, “Emotions are temporary states of mind, Don’t let them permanently destroy you.’ Yes sometimes the brain does some crazy whispering. When I pay attention to those whispering thoughts, they drag me down; they cause me to become off-centered; I become bitter and angry; I can lash ou...

Re: Hello from LostCause94
“Come to me all who are weary, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28, that verse that you post is very comforting...hopefully you have done so… When I have focused on my troubles, my issues and my difficulties- they only seem to get worse, they become more intensified. If I continue to focus on m...

Re: At this time, I am new.
When I think about difficult times in my life, I as well, tend to feel lost, defeated, disheveled and the more I dwell on those hurtful thoughts, more it feels as if I am drowning. I came across a verse in the Bible that makes a lot of sense: Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and rig...

Re: Hi, I just joined?
Someone once wrote “Some see a hopeless end, while others see an endless hope.” In my dark times in my own life, I have found that focusing on the problems seems to make me feel worse. When I have felt hopeless, I also feel paralyzed to make a decision. Yet I have learned how to trust God, I find my...

Re: I feel like I'm dying and there is nothing left
When I dwell on my unpleasant, hurtful, painful thoughts, they only get more intense. They get more intense, and I have more of them. You have to intentionally put your mind other places. Someone once wrote: Don’t make a permanent decision from your temporary emotion.” I don’t know if you have a fai...

Re: Hello people
Hi Nick, Someone once said that when we have looked everywhere for answers and have found none, then it is time to look up. In the past when I found myself in desperate situations I called out to God. There was a time, Nick, where I was both obsessed and phobic, at the same time, about a particular ...
