    you are not going crazy. Many people go through this in their faith, including myself.

    Even Mother Theresa went through this as well as some of the saints of past. So you are definitely not alone.

    we are humans and it’s natural to doubt at times, especially during these times. . also remember that there is the spirit of evil that tries to pull people away from God.it’s good to be aware of that so that you don’t let yourself become deceived.

    what can really help is reading the Word daily. there are specific passages in there that you can read to increase your faith. Don’t be hard on yourself. just realize that this is a normal thing for humans . an excellent book is called a case for faith . definitely worth reading! you’re going to be OK! ❤

      thank you jan34534, for encouragement,i am not like this before,my God is my strenght and refuge,maybe this is only our minds.that can cause anxiety,its okay for me to overthink anything w/o symptoms.but why anxiety accompanied by symptoms? we can handle the negative thoughts thru diverting our mind into possitive.but this anxiety symptoms,is really hard to cope specially when you are at panic moment.you feel hopeless.and thought that there is no solution of coping up.

    anxiety creates symptoms because when we are anxious, adrenaline is released which causes a lot of the symptoms. The best thing to do is relax the mind as much as possible and try not to overthink. When you have those doubts about your faith, be aware that it’s the anxious mind that creates negative thoughts. You can acknowledge the thoughts, But don’t follow them. Just calmly watch them drift off like a leaf on a stream and then do something else that is positive. Our negative thoughts are not based on fact. What you can do is after you have the negative thoughts, you can go and read from scripture to set your mind back on God.❤

    I've had this anxiety b4 too. It can mess with your mind. here's some truth for you:

    • God is always for you, and will forever love you.
    • You're unbelief doesn't change anything. He understands your struggle with doubt.
    • Be like David in the Bible, openly confess to God about your struggles.
