I need encouragement!!!

What do you do when your physical health is declining ALOT and you contemplated killing yourself, but didn't b/c you prayed to God and it got all better? BUT you still feel like there is no reason to be here and your tired of fighting your physical problems?????? maybe I'm just tired, but I've felt like this for days. arrrrggggg!!! I'm going to see a counselor for this, but I don't know what to do. Is writing down all the verses from the Bible that have to do with healing and health a good thing?? That's what I've started to do. I keep thinking I have stomach cancer, but I probabaly don't. I just keep thinking that that's what I'm going to have. I don't know...I'm probably just paranoied about it, and I have pryaed about it. Encouragement?????

First let me tell you that I have felt exactly like you say you have, like theres no reason to live anymore...and you wonder why your living this life...and feel like the only escape is death. Let me also tell you that the road of suicide is a bad road...one you certainly don't want to take. You probably don't have stomach cancer....why would you think you would? How exactly is your physical health declining? My only answer is prayer... pray and pray some more... God knows what your going through...and he can help. It will be all right...no matter what...don't give in to the trap of cutting or anything like that...it only makes it worse... I would suggest reading the bible, praying, and seeing a therapist or getting counsiling of some kind.

Hmmm - don't dwell on it, for in thinking constantly about declining health you get down and then your immune system drops more and you get worse believe it or not. The best cure is to be happy - easier said than done i know. But meet up with mates who make you laff and just do things with them so your minds off how you feel. Generally does speed up recovery! Also writing down all the bible vs to do with health and healing may not be all that healthy for again your dwelling - and if your healing is to be gradual rather than instantaneous you might start thinking where's God why won't he answer my prayers when realy he is but as it gradual you dont notice the changes day to day. Hmmmm. My two cents.

Oh and keep writing down your frustrations on here or in a notebook or whatever. just get them out your head. It does help i've found! lol. Plus ppl can then kp encouraging you,

What exactly are teh health problems if you don't mind my asking. And why don't you go to the doctors just so you don't have to worry or get paranoid about it being stomach cancer as they can tell you what it really is and give medicine to make better. Or does that cost too much (can't get my head round your medical system! - ours is free!)

I totally agree...I can understand the feeling of thinking that there's no reason to be here...but let me tell you something, YOU HAVE A PURPOSE!! God has a wonderful plan for you! You might not see it for a while...but there is a reason that you're here...there's a reason why you haven't committed suicide...there's a reason for everything...all the time that you use thinking about the problems you're going though, start using that time searching for your purpose!! I'll be praying for you!! You can get through this!!!

I think I'm feeling better mentally. I saw the doctor recently...I've had problems since grade school. The doctor pit me on new meds and I think I had an allergic reaction to one and had to go to the ER, but the other medication is not working. Today I found out that my neck is curved forward (instead of back like it's supposed to be), which is probably why I have headaches all the time. The chiropractor's going to work on that. Right now I'm feeling okay. Better than I have been. I just have to tell myself that it's going to get better.

Ok I have advice... First U got to pray with faith. U got to declare that you're healed in Jesus' name. Stop thinking U got stomach cancer!! Pray that anything that wasn't placed in your body by God leaves. You got to tell the sickness to leave in Jesus' name!!! Remember U got to trust in God with all your heart. I know its hard but that's what U should do. You got a purpose in this life. Have U ever tried thinking why did God create U!! Don't worry, I'll be praying 4 U!! JLY!!
