Positive Vibe/ prayer request thread

[naturalooks15]

Hi All,

Don't want this to be whining or venting thread but this is pretty much the only community I am active in and really really like it so thought of posting here. 

This is for everyone to post if you like/need.

Some of you may know that I have been though toughest time of my life for last one year and every aspect of my life is hit. Looks like the ordeal is not over and now it's onto my career and in turn mental wellbeing . Without going into too much detail, my health was compromised to the point that it was life threatening, my personal life crisis beyond belief that I never thought would happen to me and crushed me. Now my career is taking a hit for various reasons plus my health/ some physical limitation causing me further stress, anxiety, having hard time concentrating.

I am doing everything I can. Fighting this very hard, trying to stay positive. I have started working out regularly because I think that will help physical as well as mental wellbeing and doing everything I can but I feel I am at a point where it's getting tiring I can use some positive thought and your prayers. 

Also, if you are someone like me where sometime I am at a loss of words and not sure what to communicate to the person but I still pray for them, that is ok too, no need to feel pressured to post anything.

Feel free to post your own requests in this thread. Again, not a pity party and definitely do everything in your control to power though but sometimes positive vibes and prayers are just the things we all could use.

@sprocketta   NC is really growing, and a lot of young professionals are moving there.  It's being called the Silicon Valley of the South. 🙂  I'll bet you'd love it there.

@Ispend2much6 I was just reading that online re all the yuppies.  Hopefully I'll join their ranks!  Thanks for your support.

Even though I haven't been able to check-in frequently, it warms my heart to see the community coming together and so many people have been able to open up here.  

Just wanted to update everyone.. I am doing much better. Regular exercising has been a key to improving my mental well-being. My physical health is also improving slowly. My job situation has gotten bit better. 

No words to THANK YOU ALL !!

Another request - I found out my Physical Therapist that I have been working with for 8+ months has stage 4 cancer. I cried so much. I hid it from her when she was treating me (she told me at the beginning of the session since I'll have to see someone else now) but I was crying at the table too. It took me two weeks. 

Requesting you to keep her in your thoughts and prayers please. She is an awesome person, an excellent professional - one of the very best I have seen, so energetic and she was so positive about this whole thing and so strong that she will come out well on the other side in few month. I am keeping my fingers crossed that it's true. I plan to do a prayer session for her at my place of worship. I don't know how else to help her. She means so much to me not just my PT

[Titian06]

I'm happy to hear things are going better for you, @naturalooks15 !  Continued positive vibes ~~~

I'm sorry to hear about your PT.  Best wishes and positive thoughts to her!

[SportyGirly125]

@naturalooks15 So sorry to hear about your PT condition.  I am sending positive vibes to you and her.  Always sad when things like this happen to good people. 

[naturalooks15]

Thanks @SportyGirly125  @Titian06  I plan to bring her flowers and letter (since I so shocked and couldn't even say anything much when she told me and I don't think I will be able to speak much but hope to write to her what I am feeling - only positive and strengthening things, don't want to make her weak), also plan to offer prayer at my place of worship. Anything else that you can suggest? I plan to ask my doctor from at my next appointment as he might have a good idea on what can help/ comfort her but open to suggestions. 

[Brutalitops]

@naturalooks15 I think the letter will do great things if it comes from a place of truth. An important person in my life has also been going through a cancer diagnosis and treatment and the things she speaks most highly of is the closeness it's brought to her friends and family, a community is a mighty thing

I made a post about my situation a week ago or so on my IG about my situation. My well being has taken a toll for the worst, mentally. I've been getting anxiety attacks more frequently.. and this is why..

My mom has been mentally unstable for more than a month already. We have tried getting a psychiatrist but her doctor's office place gives us the run-around, because they basically want to do everything. Finally I think she is going to get to go to a visit on the 21st .. and even though it is to help her my anxiety is picking up thinking about it. My aunt that came for a few days won't be here to take her. My aunt that lives near isn't currently in town because her daughter is also going through anxiety. 

I basically have to suck it up and if worse comes to worse just go outside to my car if my anxiety kicks in when I take her. 

She repeats everything, has no idea what day she is in, sometimes doesn't sleep, although these past two days we gave her clonazepam and that has made her sleep well.. she is still scared of everything, like taking a shower by herself and last night i didnt sleep with her but i had to sleep with her before because she was scared. 

All this got triggered because we were taking care of my cousin's kid who tried to get her way by taking some pills to scare us. It worked and my mom is suffering for it now.. the kid is fine. She bragged about doing it before. 

I just don't know what to do anymore. Once myaunt leaves on monday I'm alone again. This wouldn't be so hard if I didn't also have to take care of my handicap uncle who is 66 yrs old. but he is like an overgrown baby so you have to be on guard with him. im so exhausted.

I'd like to request a prayer for the both of us because I just don't know what else to do anymore.

Another update. My mom was sent home today and it seems she is back to her normal self. Before my eyes give out i just want to say how much i appreciate and love all you caring ladies. It means the world to me, i found comfort here and i just wanted to acknowledge that.

[Blackwhiskey]

Lots of prayer helped again thank you all. 

I'm so glad she is home too, its night and day. With her I feel love, warmth, kindness, and compassion. I felt so alone even with family around. 

[naturalooks15]

Glad to hear it @Blackwhiskey 

[curlychiquita]

[yankeefaithful]

@Blackwhiskey  Oh, I am glad that your Mom seems better!! Hopefully things will continue to improve and you can start taking care of yourself!!! We're here for you and I will continue to say prayers for you and your family!! Take care!!😔❤
