Wow, this could not have come at a better time...My family and friend community are dealing with a nasty stomach bug and I have a fear of throwing up (I hate it). I find myself washing my hands and judging others for bringing their kids around when they were sick throwing up two days ago. The Lord is showing me that this overwhelming, ruminating fear is mostly about not being able to control this thing that I hate. I need to do what I can, take vitamins and exercise, but ultimately know that He's going to see me through it, no matter how awful it might feel at the time. He even promises to bring me blessings through the hard things...
My relationship with sickness is terror and dread. I'm more afraid of sickness and suffering than death.
I have suffered from anxiety for as long as I can remember, first it started with separation anxiety- worrying about my mom and if I left her I couldn’t control (stop) anything happening to her. As I grew older and moved out it transitioned to health anxiety. I now have gastrointestinal issues and have been checked a lot of times but have constant rumination thoughts. Listening to your videos has made me realize the core issue- I didn’t feel safe through childhood and I need to control my environment. Thank you for posting this and please do more! God bless you
Thanks so much bro. I actually first found you by accident in the first health anxiety video you made, this one here came right when I needed it. God bless 🙏
Mark this is for me. Thank you so much for this video. You have no idea what this video did for me. God bless you and your family
Wow, "What is your relationship with..." It can become an identity! 😮
Wow---so need this! Thanks, Mark! Whew--wish I would've discovered you and Melissa back in March of 2020 (well-before that actually). I've got this video on loop.
Very effective. Very happy to find you Mark
Really a beautiful video and a beautiful talk! Thank you Mark for all of your hard work. It really resonated to me because I am struggling with Health OCD (and probably other forms of OCD)
I was wondering where can we ask you the questions that you will possibly address in your videos?
I have been struggling intensely for the past year. Scared to hangout with people. Scared to go into public. Washing my hands. Excessive cleaning and showering after work. Scared to eat food.
I've researched so much. Where is this coming from? Turning to god. I spent this entire morning crying just so tired of it.
This video is one I think I will need to watch many times. My mom was very depressed and disabled. She would attempt suicide lay in bed for weeks. I was also taught the world is a scary place. And I always feel I am in danger. I don't know why this never clicked for me before.
I'm so looking forward to re-learning safety. Thank you so much.
This is amazing truly
WOW! Thank you for this! So good!
Once again, thank you!
I have a contamination/ health fear with chemicals. I am so happy there is a website for poison control because when I call them, they act like I'm craaaazzzy. 😂 I know this is reassurance seeking but I'm working on it. At least I can laugh about it lol
Thank you so much. You have helped me tremendously
I wasn't taught shit about prayer. Nor was I prayed for. I had to come back to it myself. Or, it had to come back to me. Not that I wasn't shown love, I was, I just feel that without prayer, something major is missing from human life.
Omg, I finally found a video on the actually root of it! Thank you so much.
I have just found out just how proud I am which is why I hate mistakes.
I believe my heart is really struggling with loving my enemies. Therefore, my Salvation obsessive compulsive tendencies come up big time. 🙎
My fear is performance based. I hate mistakes, I have a bass guitar that I have a love hate relationship with. I've wanted to play for more than 40 years now but I never thought I could learn all the workings of music, scales, modes, rhythms. I've been invited to sing on several occasions but I don't like my voice and I've never learned how to use it. At 68 years old the regrets of my life are growing and there are a few. My biggest is not using the skills that God gave me and now I don't know how to connect to Him. I feel like I'm too late.
Thank you for just coming out and stating the word vaccine. It may just be what some need to hear.
