If I find myself heading down that pathway, I have to tell myself to stop it, that there's no point in worrying about what could happen. You really CAN make yourself sick worrying! So try to calm your fears and I bet that will help you feel a little better.<br><br>Hugs, Beth<br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987516223417309324.post-80136530469786143382008-09-13T08:19:00.000-07:002008-09-13T08:19:00.000-07:00You have been worrying for a long time, Christine....You have been worrying for a long time, Christine.

There is a history in my family of suicide. I have to struggle all the time to keep a good attitude. The Lord has helped me so much on talking to Him when bad memories come into my mind. I have never thought of suicide but it does run in my family. I am a very nervous person and bet you are too. I was born that way. Have a lot of relatives on meds. That was so nice of Linda to send you some Avon. I made a trip one time from Penn. to Kansas without a spare. Could not afford to buy a spare. 2 days after I got to Kansas I had a flat. lol I look back over my life and see where God protected me from many things. I did not even realize it until later years. Many times I felt alone in my marriage. The Lord was my strength to keep me going. Without Him I don't know where I would be. Sometimes there is no choice other than to stay with someone. How we deal with it is our choice also. We can either accept the situation or stress out. Just try to realize that better days will be in the future. Hope your days go well Christine. Pray that you don't worry all day. Try to enjoy the children and what good things that you have right now. Love, hugs, and prayers, JanieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987516223417309324.post-50716198039943774682008-09-13T16:24:00.000-07:002008-09-13T16:24:00.000-07:00Christine your online friends are real, I know wer...Christine your online friends are real, I know were not there in person though. It can be hard. I have only one girl friend in real life but our lives are so busy we communicate mostly through email! So its kind of the same. But you know what, I will share with you that this friend I have in real life is going through some hard times as well, she is pregnant and age 42, and they are losing their house. They are going into foreclosure. They have one older son in high school. They will have to pick up after this, and do something, go somewhere, and rebuild. It has not happened yet, but it might soon. But they have decided not to worry about it because there is little they can do. She cant work, she is 7 months pregnant, and her husband can only do what he can. They cant worry, because you know what worrying is? Worrying is praying for what you dont want, TO HAPPEN. Whatever is predominantly in your mind is what you will bring about in your life. So try hard to pull in more positive thoughts.<br><br>I think your racing thoughts can be controlled by getting some endorphins happening in your body. Survey the last week, how many times have you had racing thoughts and bad feelings? Write it down. Take a small 15 minute walk, once a day for about a week and write down how many times you have racing thoughts that week. If its less, then you just needed some endorphins, which happen only through exercise, even slow walking for 15 minutes a day will produce enough endorphins for you to feel happier and have better thoughts. I know this works, because this is how I control MY racing thoughts.<br><br><br><br><br><br>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987516223417309324.post-51015097506141347502008-09-22T04:02:00.000-07:002008-09-22T04:02:00.000-07:00ChristineI am so very sorry that you are feeling d...Christine<br><br>I am so very sorry that you are feeling down............ i know people say try to stay positive etc and i know its not as easy as that.
