No Longer Feeling Breathless And Anxious
I had been struggling with breathlessness caused by acid reflux, and about a year ago, it led to my first panic attack. I honestly thought I was going to die—I had never experienced anything like that before. The doctors advised me to cut out caffeine.
But I love caffeine and couldn’t stay away. I tried to compromise by switching to other forms, but a month ago, I had another panic attack. Right after that, I came down with the flu and was prescribed medication that I later found out I was allergic to. From then on, the breathlessness just wouldn’t go away.
It became hard to focus at work because I was constantly wondering if another panic attack would hit. I started googling my symptoms and spiralled into more anxiety and breathlessness.
Then one day, I was listening to a sermon by Pastor Prince while scrolling on my phone when I felt a prompting to put my phone down. The moment I did, Pastor Prince said, “God gives you breath.” And immediately, I felt like those words were for me. I took a deep breath—and for the first time in a long while, it didn’t feel like a struggle.
That moment changed everything. It’s been months now, and the breathlessness hasn’t returned!
I still faced occasional anxiety at first, but I began confessing, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ.” Every time doubts crept in, I reminded myself that those thoughts were not from God and that Jesus loves me.
Before long, even the anxious feelings left. I just want to thank God for His goodness and for healing me and taking away all my anxiety!
