    I realize this filming is not recent but sending you this positive prayer affirmation anyway. 💕“I cast all my anxieties and worries to the Lord who loves and cares for me, “When I feel anxious, I take refuge in the Lord Jesus Christ where I feel safe and protected,” and “When I feel overwhelmed, I cry out to God and find safety.”💕

    I'm falling in love with Thailand even more by viewing it through your lense. I'm so excited to get to that side of the world! Jan2025 😂You are not a catfish! You are a beautiful soul inside and out! We are all cousins at heart 😂

    I have experienced anxiety all my life, you know what really helps mine is crocheting. It helps me think and slow all the way down. It literally slows my brain action down!

    I'm no doctor, but im thinking hormonal changes and the health scare... could've taken a toll on your body. We can't do everything like we did in our teens and twenties . Breathe in slowly...count to 6. Then, release your breath slowly unto a count of six. NO DEEP BREATHING. Repeat. That tells your brain their is no emergency and shuts down nerves fast.

    So glad to hear that you found a church where you can worship. I was going to ask about that. Immigrations never cease to amaze. There have been times, internationally and stateside, whereas I have been in the wrong place, unknowingly, just to be redirected. Honey, you are navigating well. Give yourself some grace 💕💕.

    I haven't had an anxiety attack in a minute, so I can't even recall what helped to quell it except prayer, exercise, and rest. Take care. Be well. I grew up in a non-denominational church as well and a Dove girl too.

    Generalized Anxiety Disorder has no age limit. Life happenings trigger our Anxiety. Even if your a super Christian 😂 you can experience Anxiety. I'm thinking your return the the US , your health concerns and your internal struggles you don't discuss may have triggered it. Good job trying to find coping strategies. What helped me was prayer, reading books about Anxiety from a christian prospective, therapy, and chiropractic care. Ultimately I took setraline and wish I did it earlier. I'm so grateful that now I can manage without meds. I'll be praying for you Sis ❤🙏🏾

    Hey Antoinette, have you ever considered hosting a women's retreat in Bangkok, or anywhere in Thailand? What and opportunity for others to experience a unique adventure from a local. You've been living there for several months and have many resources. It could be a wellness retreat, you just did some of that with your mom on her visit, and it looked relaxing and healing. So many will sign up for that!
    Love, Light and Blessings!! Bebe❤🙏🏽

    It was fun watching your days in the life of a Bangkok resident. My first impression of Bangkok is that it’s hectic much like NYC. As Ive gotten older, I don’t like NYC as much as a city. It left me anxious as well. I’m looking forward to visiting some of the more quieter places in Thailand.

    I am very happy that you are taking steps to navigate your anxiety because it can become crippling if not managed. I am not a doctor but I think that as we age there are things stored in our subconscious that can lead to feelings of anxiousness. Like we wanted to do certain things by a certain time etc..you feel me?! Stay on the path you are on and it will be ok. 🙏😀 I am all over your comment section today😂😂😂

    I thoroughly enjoyed your video as usual. I need to pick up on my speed reading for the reading aspects of your videos 😂 I started having anxiety/panic attacks in my late 30’s/early 40’s. Back then I had no idea what was happening, but after learning about them I also found out that a high percentage of black women begin having them in their 30’s and 40’s. Stress is one of the reasons. So doing something to relieve your stress is helpful. The piano lessens hopefully will help. Taking it to God first and foremost is the best thing you can do. For your bed I’m thinking if you add some type of color and plush comforter might help. I have a question for you. When you were at the mall shopping, the orangish colored pieces in your ears, were those earbuds or ear plugs?

    I know how you feel. I have been traveling through Mexico these last 6 months and I am having a very frustrating week. I have friends where I am right now and they have a friend who rents houses and apartments short term (Not Airbnb). Long story short, I paid for a place before I got here that the Host changed to another place that would not work out for me because I am disabled and the new place she found me had 20 plus steps. Cannot do large number of stairs with a spinal disease! She was not getting it! Now she found me another place that has 8 different MAJOR problems such as; the bathroom was not cleaned….gross, the propane tank for the gas stove is empty (I’m not able to cook a meal) and the list goes on and on. Watching your video has made me feel better because you mindfully changed your attitude towards your set backs. We must take these setbacks / tragedies as learning lessons instead of catastrophes. It is extremely difficult to do that, but when we do, it allows God to take over and guide us in the right direction. Thank you for helping me change my negative attitude towards my situation and letting go of things I cannot control. Keep on Rockin Girl!

  • @Shugar212

    I used to have anxiety so bad that I didn't leave the house but once a month for years for food. When I started going out for doctors appointments I couldn't control my bodily functions. One way or another my anxiety made it happen. Either before I left or while I was out. I'm so much better now. Now I just prepare my mind ahead of time and I'm always early to appointments so it makes me anxious and irritated when I have to wait for some who will make me late.

    Suffered with panic attacks and realized it was stress and forcing myself to push through. I also realized (eventually) that I would not pass out or have a heart attack. Take cbd at night. Cannabis can be very useful or just the cbd part of the plant.

    Remember to anoint yourself first thing & put your armor on everyday Sis.⚔️🛡️
    Don't sweat the anxiety.🙏🏾 Hormones are changing. Ride the wave!🤩 🌊 From what I can ascertain from your videos, traveling is your comfort zone.🏃🏾‍♀️ That's why you don't stock up the pantry. You're programmed to be on the go. You lived on planes and in a van for so long, now that you're not as mobile your body is adjusting. A UA-cam couple who flew for Emirates went through same thing.🥴 Bet you'll feel much better on your trip.💯🧳🛫✈️🇪🇬 Traveling mercy.🕊️
    Looking forward to hearing all about it!

    Please tell people again about food in the states vs food elsewhere. I promise we are sometimes so uninformed about the US and their ways and they bank on us not being knowledgeable. When I tell people the food taste different in places like the UK, Indonesia, Thailand for example they don't believe me. The US food is killing us, we need to learn to read the ingredients. Due to our laws here, trace amounts of some products are allowed in some of our foods, "trace" where in other countries it is banned!
    For example BHT, it's used as a flavour enhancer it is banned in UK, Japan and other parts of Europe is a known endocrine disruptor and can damage healthy cells. We really need to read more and we including me.

But as for the food its so weird how over weight my husband and i have become and we are active and eat mainly healthy aside from date night indulging and taking the kids out on Saturdays. Now we are in a calorie deficit and cut any date night indulgence and our weight has regulated.
