![]() It's weird, because when I was busy I was still suffering from a diagnosed anxiety disorder, but I never used to have these feelings of total weakness. I know it's so frustrating! I used to be really busy and going out enjoying things, I used to exercise every day because I enjoyed it (not strenuous but I was really active) and now I feel like a complete invalid. Do other people get the weak/collapsing feeling and how do you make it better? It's with me all day long every day and I feel like I don't trust my body to be strong and robust and young anymore (I'm 25), because I feel so frail and I'm scared of 'pushing myself', by exercising or doing much at all.I feel like I might be making it worse by trying to stay safe and just rest all the time though?Īnxiousrecoverer in reply to natty1982 10 years ago I've been tested for diabetes regularly over the last 12 years because every doctor I see wants to double check! So I very much doubt there's anything wrong with me. He doesn't think it's thyroid but I had a fasting blood test today because he wanted to check for diabetes. I've been to the docs because a nurse told me to have my thyroid tested. My muscles are also very weak and they shake when I try to use them. When I do try to think (when I work hard at work) I often get very dizzy and the room starts spinning. I feel like I don't have the energy to stand or to think. It makes my anxiety worse because I have this fear I'll just collapse or shut down completely. You may refer to the lyrics of the song below.Does anyone else get this and how do you deal with it? I feel constantly drained of energy and really struggling to get through the day. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow meĪnd I will dwell in the house of the LordĪnd as you do so, we recommend the song Goodness of God by Bethel Music to help you get into a state of worship. When despair starts to creep in, we encourage you to remember God’s goodness and while it may feel dark at this time, borrow the words of the man who knew that in both the ups and downs of life, he is held in the hands of the Almighty - the words of David - and speak them over yourself: It is the goodness of God that leads us to repentance (or in Greek, “metanoia” which means “a change of mind”). ![]() The most basic element of praise and worship is the focus on God’s goodness because it is when we focus on His goodness that we cause a shift inwardly from despair to hope, from questioning to eager expectation and from stress to restfulness. We put a praise on our lips and switch our focus to Him instead of what we see with our natural eyes. In the natural, adversity such as this pandemic puts everyone on equal ground but as children of God, when we are grounded on His word and His promises, we are able to respond to adversity differently. The challenge of surviving had become very real not only on not contracting the virus but keeping themselves fed and more so, keeping their hopes up. ![]() Pretty sure at some point and even now as these words are getting typed in, people are getting disheartened. ![]() ![]() When the world halted to a standstill, no one really knew how long it was going to last. ![]()
