WOW! Exactly how many things can a person have going on at once. Add, depression and panic disorder is my life on a daily basis. Living as a married adult it has been very, very difficult not just for me but for my wife as well. You see she is an extrovert and is very anal and precise about everything. It has been as hard for me as it has been for her. She doesn't really understand why I feel and do the things I do and it frustrates her to no end. To make matters worse, I work with her every day in her business because our finances dictate that I help her. She reminds me daily of just how much of a screw up I am and how worthless of a husband she married. Which does nothing but reinforce what and how I feel about myself. When I was young I never dealt with anything like this but I started having some of these feelings in high school. Progressively the symptoms have gotten worse over time. The add makes life hard. The depression is overwhelming and the panic disorder is the worse. I don't even know whom I am anymore. I was able to keep these feelings under control when I was single but when I got married they got worse. Don't really know if it's because I married someone with a different personality than me or if it's all my fault. Both my wife are Christians and have faith. Believe me, this is worse than having a major physical illness, in my opinion. I don't have insurance and can't go to the doctor but I feel I need help. If anyone out there can offer any advice I would be ever so grateful. For those of you who are going through similar circumstances, my heart and prayers go out to you. God Bless
It's awesome that you are a believer!

I suggest you get counseling through your pastor, or another local church family in your area. There usually is no charge....Depression, and panic episodes can usually be traced to something in your present life, or past, that you aren't letting go, or maybe aren't even aware of....Symptoms of Add can be harassing enough, to keep you busy alone...So, I wish the best for you...Let me just remind you of this one thing...1st John 1:3...See what kind of love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called the children of God; and that is what we are. :)...That is who you are in Christ my brother!..So, my dear brother, when you feel panic coming, just in form that Spirit, you are Gods Child and rebuke it in Jesus name. As his child you have the holy spirit in you, to give you power over the evil one....Grace 2 you Brother!
