I have already requested prayer for the issue of extreme anxiety but thought I would give a little background. I have been struggling with this for 38 years. I have sought the Lord continuously, been to inner healing, part of deliverance prayers, taken medication, tried many types of alternate brain therapies too. Recently, I had to get off one of my medications due to it raising my sugar levels very high. I have experienced many difficulties since doing this. There are days that I am just trying to survive. This is not living. I know what the scripture says about anxiety. However, some of the anxiety I suffer from is not the results of thoughts ( I do my best to take those captive). This is a pervasive anxiety that permeates my body and brain. I have been told that is like a PTSD of anxiety. I am really struggling now and am frustrated and mad that I have to go through this yet again. I have had times of reprieve when certain medications were working (they have a tendency to stop after taking for long periods of time). I really need God to intervene and direct me so I can "live" my life and not be in a survival mode. Please pray for my husband too as this is not an easy time for him either. Thank you for your prayers.
