3 things to remember when dealing with insomnia

[roxanncorston]

Thank you brother in CHRIST. I suffer the same... doomy ? Absolutely. Panic attacks coupled with depression... I seriously need Jesus to deliver me from these attacks and Along with dependence upon clonazepam (31yrs ago) ugh. I'm exhausted and in need of God to fully heal me. God bless you all!

I need Jesus in my life . I need Jesus to deliver me from insomnia.

This is truly God-sent. I’m going through a pretty intense bout of insomnia right now, and I told myself that there has to be more to this than what I’ve been experiencing. I tried everything under the book to try and sleep, but I felt God calling me back to Him, and this was confirmation. Thank you so much for sharing and giving me such encouragement. I was hoping to find a video on this EXACT topic and look at God!!

Living with insomnia is so hard, sometimes don't feel like the point of living at all.

It's especially hard when the people around you do not understand. They look at you as though you're lazy, because you're too tired to start the day. You're also late to everything which can cause some tension in the room as well. Especially when you're late to work. The way your coworkers look at you because they could not change shift until your arrival. Yet here you are about 3 hours late because you hadn't slept. At this point, its not the insomnia that's bothering me. Its all the negative energy people give me for it, and they have no sympathy whatsoever. Sometimes I try to vent about it. But I can see in peoples eyes, they think im just making excuses when truly I am suffering. Some people just say, "I have the same problem but I don't let it stop me." I can't stand when people pretend that mental endurance is not different for everyone. If you are strong enough to get through it. Teach me your ways, don't make me feel like an idiot for being weak in some areas. Thank you for this. 🙏

I come back to this video anytime I'm awake and it's late and the anxiety is high.

God is good and His Word is Good and all things are for our Good. The Bible really is good medicine for the soul that thirsts for the living water of Christ our Master and Savior.

Thank you for this video!

Randomly searched for healing testimonies on this subject after another rough night of sleep. I thank God for this channel. Thank you for being obedient and sharing! You have no idea how meaningful and helpful these are. Thank you!!

Thank you so much for posting this brother. I have been dealing with this issue on and off for the last few years. Seems to be when I am under a lot of pressure from work, home, financial stuff, health issues from time to time etc., and it makes it so hard to fall asleep and stay asleep. I try to re-direct my thoughts about not sleeping to God, I'll put on worship music softly, remind myseld of the positive, good things God has done and is doing...it get very hard though bc you then get stuck thinking about how much sleep you got, didn't get, need to get...getting through the day exhausted...wondering when will you sleep normally again. Your points here are incredibly useful and appreciated. It feels good to know I am not the only one. God bless you and everyone else dealing with insomnia. Jehovah Rapha is our Faithful Healer.Amen

Thank you for a wonderful video. I have had chronic insomnia for 3 years. Its debilitating and at 53 im exhausted daily. I do feel defeated. I literally have tried everything and nothing has worked.
Im going to follow your words, as I truly believe you are so right! Im not going to live in fear or anxiety over this anymore
May God bless You

This is an excellent and very helpful perspective Aaron. God uses adverse circumstances to humble us and to draw us near to Him and to depend on Him. This is just like how He dealt with Israel in the wilderness. They got enough manna everyday to sustain them but they were not allowed to store up more for the next day. They had to rely on God everyday for their sustenance and this is how God wants to train His people. Ray Vander Laan's "Walking with God in the Desert" is a real blessing for anyone going through a hard time and I really recommend it. God bless you Aaron.

Amen brother! I first got my insomnia when I was 17, and it last for 6 months. Those 6 months are terrible. I've been depressed, anxious and suicidal cuz of my fear of not getting enough sleep at night. Few years later, now I'm 21. Insomnia came back to me, and all of my fears cameback as well. I'm struggling with it for almost 3 months now, and this video help me a little. I will always trust the Lord's promises. In Jesus name, Amen!

Everyone who have insomnia, I'm praying for your healing! mentally, spiritually, Physically and emotionally! In the name of Jesus Christ the Lord, Amen!

Thank you Aaron, you never fail to remind me to focus on God instead of the circumstances. This video has helped me deal with insomnia in a meaningful way ❤️

Finally! I can tell that you understand. I get so many cliche, when talking to people about that I just don't talk about it anymore. Ps 127. Has helped me as well. Best I can tell insomnia came from my working with chemicals for my jobs. Your point on treating it like fasting was a huge encouragement. Thank you so much for talking about this.

Most everyday I struggle with this. One night God revealed to me, “where there is struggle there is no surrender.”

Because of you, your videos, emails, and John, I have made progress… going from 4 hours of sleep every two to three days to 4-5 hours sleep a night, sometimes broken, occasionally deep. I meditate on Romans 8:28 and also 2 Corinthians 12:9. When it was so bad I couldn’t work, exercise, nothing. I had so much exhaustion, shortness of breath, fatigue, muscle and joint pain, depression and anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. Now the anxiety is mostly gone, most days depression is gone. No suicidal thoughts. 🙌🏻

It has taken a toll on me physically and I have gained weight and some other issues, but God has used it to turn my heart to Him and my perception has completely shifted. I can work some now and have hope I will be restored completely.

It’s been a very slow progress, but it’s progress. Thank you for helping me❤️

I’ve battled it for 32 years, nearly half my life. It’s took a toll on my life! I have talked to God quite a bit! I’m still here though
