Put Your Faith In God in Managing Your Depression, Anxiety, And
Fears
Sometimes, your fears may overwhelm you to the point that you
feel like giving up. When this happens, the next step is to put
your faith in God. Using the help of God can make a big
difference in overcoming your fears, anxieties, and depression.
The first step a person should do is to start talking and
praying to God. A person can go to church or to a quiet place
during the day to tell God that they are having a problem. They
should tell God how they feel and ask God for some of his help.
A person could also review the Bible and read some articles on
trusting in God and then apply these concepts in their life.
Each and every day, a person should make it up a habit to talk
to God and ask for his help.
In addition, learn as much as you can in managing anxiety and
depression. There are many books and information that will
educate you on how to deal with fear and anxiety. Share this
information with others who may be able to help you. Education
is the key in finding the answers your looking for in managing
your fears.
Think positive. A good way to manage your fear is to challenge
your negative thinking with positive statements and realistic
thinking. When encountering thoughts that make your fearful or
anxious, challenge those thoughts by asking yourself questions
that will maintain objectivity and common sense.
Sometimes, it helps to be able to talk to someone about our
stressful situations. Talking to a trusted friend, counselor, or
clergyman can not only make us feel better, but they might be
able to give you additional advice and insights on how to deal
with your current problem. Getting help from a professional will
make this entire process easier and will increase your chances
of success.
As a Layman, I realized that God is stronger than your fears. Be
persistent and be open in the avenues that God may provide to
you in solving your problem. It is not always easy, however God
is in control and he will help you if you ask him.
