Nice to know I am not the only one going thru this right now. Yesterday, I had experienced something I can only call a panic attack.

I know. Ever been so down that your chest feels heavy. Your head aches from thinking so much. You want to cry, but can't. You want to talk to someone, but can't find the words.

Yes , have been there , more than once.
Change your focus. Get away from the envirement you are in , that is causing the heavy chest feeling , and headaches. A Park , Near Lake or Seaside , Open Natural space will help. It is our Health that is most important , so protect Health , and don't allow problems of the moment to disturb you to the point of pain.
Have Faith in the unseen powers of our creator , who knows every hair on our head. Troubles , are many times , blessings in disguise !
Once in open space you'll see the answers will come to you , don't be afraid ! We are born nude and alone. Everything thereafter is extra.

Thank you all for your words. I haven't felt this bad is quite a loooooong time. I am really trying to cope, but it just seems so overwhelming at times.

God is always listening remember. Just talk and our creator listens !
And if you want a human to talk too , (not sure what religion you consider yourself) there are always open ears in (true) places of worship
Theres always others who have it tougher than we do , and always those who have it better than we do , always.
Look at the trees and birds , and ask yourself how they make it through the storms !
Our creator knows what you are going through , and will help you overcome your trouble. Believe , and step forward in Faith !

If you just can't get out of the space your in at the moment , atleast open the window , and find a green patch to look at and enjoy. Also look at the sky. Look away from what is bringing you down , get clear , listen from within with your inner ears , and then come back and tackle what is bringing you down , just a little at a time.
Remember there are only 24 hours in a day.
You mentioned "bills" being a problem Most Bills can be worked out with time Payment plans , etc. Even if not , answers will come to you. Just get away from the downer stuff. Force yourself to look out and up , to the unseen , to discover the answers from above and within !

Diamonds are perfected with extreme heat.
It takes fire to make Steal !
Understand the consequences of life can mold us to what our Creator truly wants for us. We must be sensitive to situations , not only taking them for face value. There are various levels to every situation. Examine , learn , better from them.
Self examine why what is occuring in your life , is occuring.
Have you read "Desiderata" ? here it is :
Desiderata
Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.
Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.
You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

What was said earlier about changing the focus (and environment) by actions that take the thoughts off oneself. Any number of ways:
-Take a trip. -Exercise. -Volunteer-helping others definitely removes the focus off oneself, in positive ways. -See a movie. -Call an old friend. -Have a drink (in moderation) & listen to some HOUSE. -Find a good book. -Consider a new interest. -Join a class.
Etc... ![[cheers]](graemlins/beerchug.gif) [ December 27, 2006, 06:49 PM: Message edited by: Free Russell ]

Living is one of the most painful lessons ever learned....the things that we triumph through define who we are FOREVER, don't give up my brotha, your children need you, your family needs you and most of all GOD love's you........

being depressed anytime is a bitch. if it's seasonal, take comfort that it'll pass.
I don't know your story, but I feel confident in saying that I'm sure that there has never been a situation you've experienced that has not eventually worked out for the best. Think about it, even in the worse situations, something good resulted.
Do something good for yourself by doing something good for a stranger. It'll bring some light to your life. Darkness cannot exist where there is light.I hope you feel better soon ![[bighug]](graemlins/bighug.gif)

I'm sorry that you are depressed at any time of the year! Please don't discount professional help as a way to help you through this. Therapy doesn't "cure" you (cuz you have to do that yourself), but therapists can give you the tools to help yourself. Plus, there is a lot of value in what I call the "dispassionate third party," who isn't personally biased or invested in your choices.
Here's to good health in 2007.

Thank you for all your replies, PM's, emails and phone calls. I really do appreciate all the words of advice. I am definitely going thru some trials and tribulations right now. This is the lowest I have been in close to 10yrs. I thought today would be a better day, but it isn't.
