@@thebrother672 well without therapy it make thing harder but you can start by learning more about traumas, like read books get as much knowledge as you can its the first step You gotta learn about journaling your fears or if you get in an anxious loop write your thought that are bothering you as soon as those comes up into your mind (writting in the morning is really really effective ) Writting your anxious though helps calming yourself. Mindfulness meditation or walk ( in forest, nature) and breathing exercice to reconnect with the present Consistency and patience Do not forget anxiety leads to depersonalisation !

You are so right, how we suffer in our imagination, than reality. I ‘m alive but not living. I worry if I see my spouse look at another woman. I’m not the jealous type, I’m controlling.

I am about 3 minutes in and already crying. This one hit home. I used to be so proud hearing " you are so mature for your age" or " wow, you're so independent", I don't see them as compliments anymore because I know what it took to built me like that. I spent my entire childhood and teenage years trying to fix and save the only parent that I had. My mom has been struggling with alcohol addiction and it took so, so many years from my life. Years of constaly worrying for her, for her safety, what if she dies, what if she hurts herself, then my safety. Constantly worried I'd be left alone in this world. It brought me so much pain. The hardest thing I had to do was to give it all to God. I realised no amount of begging, crying and pain could save someone who didn't want to be saved. I realised how little power I had. If I could let go of that I learnt to let go of anything else that I coulndn't control. God knows what he is doing. God knows what we need, when we need it and how we need it. He is such a good, good father...and he is NOT ressponsible nor is his will that people would hurt and disappoint us. When we learn this and the fact that He is GOOD and he is not the people around us, we learn to trust Him. And obedience/ surrendering and complete trust - are signs of maturity in faith. It takes time but He's got us. He will always be for us. Bless you and I appreciate you sharing this here,we relate.. you've got such a beautiful soul & I wish you all the best!

I can relate. My mom transitioned 12 years ago. My dad about 9 years prior. When mom transitioned, I was unsure of how I would live without her. I (temporarily) lost my certification, my job and my home. The biggest challenge was making sure my 4 sons were better than ok and they were. We went to church the following Sunday after Mom was gone and my sons wanted to be saved. They were baptized and I cried sooooooooooooooooooo hard. The Lord kept his promise when he said he would bless our household. I cannot live without God and I won’t. I pray we all make peace and find away to laugh about something EVERYDAY🙏🏾

Turns out I have the same symptoms my mom did, luckily I’ve caught it early at 26, instead of realizing it in my 60s. I now take medication, and I’m back on track. He works in mysterious ways.

Phil your remind me of my older brother. You talk just like him, use the same words, even twist your hair just like he does. I don't know where he is now. He had gone through so much in life and it took his toll on him. He had found Christ at some point in the past, but Satan just doesn't want him to have peace, and last I saw him it just seemed like he gave up on trying. We didn't have very much money and our parents were growing old, working jobs that made them work hard but earn so little. It stressed him out so much because he felt he had to provide for our family as the older brother that he turned to worldly things, hoping to find some success and comfort, when he should've just trust the Lord (easier said than done, believe me I know). But as you say, Jesus never promised that this life would be easy. So you are right, worrying is a waste of time. It doesn't bear good fruit. When I hear your words and how honest and humble you are about your faith and life experience, I think of him and imagine him having faith again. I wish he had a friend like you. I'm encouraged when I see youth like yourself pushing through and persevering with faith, especially when life is not easy. Especially when people around you don't understand why you do the things you do. This reminds me that I'm not alone. While you were talking, I was thinking of how you would make a great father and husband. I imagined your children sitting next to you. And then you mentioned that that was the desire of your heart. I pray that you will get these things you ask for, and more. That God would bless you, and that you would be there to support your family throughout their life and yours. God bless

This vlog speaks to my spirit. I've been following this young man for a while. I can relate to being vegan and wanting a healthy lifestyle, following Christ and having fear surrounding a sick parent. For the last 6-7 years I've had fear around my mom's health. She was born sickly and was hospitalized several times a year. I was her caretaker and bestfriend. I dealt with a constant worry of whether or not my mom would wake up, the constant in & out of the hospital, constantly checking on her 100x a day. I couldn't enjoy being happy because I was fearful of her suffering because of her health. I believe I am suffering from PTSD after seeing my mom in the hospital, the monitors, the doctors, the nurses, the medication. She passed away last Monday and I have Phil's vlogs on repeat, provides comfort for me. Phil thanks for your content, it has comforted me to get through this dark time. I pray you continue to be a righteous man and an example to other black men.

Hey Phil, I wasn't sure at first but I believe I've seen you around in Fayetteville before when I was in high school, and always thought that this guy is so reserved and somewhat guarded. But you know as kids, you don't necessarily delve in too deep when it is not directly affecting you. However, listening to your testimony and seeing where God has brought you today is truly reaffirming to my walk with Him. We always think that we are the only ones going through hardships and tribulations, but the Bible states that as His children we are not exempt. Once we are motivated by fear, we will always fail because it is unsustainable. Always keep in mind that "The Word of God, like the character of it's divine Author, presents mysteries that can never be fully comprehended by finite beings. We have no reason to doubt God's Word because we cannot understand the mysteries of His providence." Our true purpose is to just worship Him and have our hearts available to be used for His glory. Thank you for story and God Bless.

I have been so worried about what could go wrong from pass trauma and failures. My anxiety kicks in and worry subdues me. Lord I thank you so very much for bringing me to this channel to help me along my journey. My days of worrying and doubting the Lord is over. Lord today I choose to let Go of things I cannot change and I place all my worries in your hands.

Your moms story is very similar to my moms. To where she had a mental breakdown and was in and out of hospitals and wandering through the neighborhood . She’s getting better now but keep us in prayer. I don’t hold on to my negative emotions but it’s a battle still

This definitely speaks to me, I’ve experienced the same things growing up and I really do think it’s why I have constant anxiety and worry about my health and my parents health. It can really be debilitating, as I grow up I’ve realized that growing my relationship with God is the only thing that can honestly help. Thank you for this message !

Phil. Honestly I appreciate how solid you are with God. The conversations, the reference to scripture, the honesty with your relationship with God.. solid. Grow deeper with him, he is our firm foundation and everything is orchestrated by him. He deserves all praise no cap, no pretense, no shame. Proud of you.

Wow. Your story really resonated with me. When I was little, one of my younger brothers passed away from cancer after he fought it for nearly a year. My family and I were always in and out of hospitals to get him treated. Watching him suffer during that time created a lot of anxiety, worry, and fear that still torments me at times, but through much prayer and guidance from God, I've come to a much better place than I was before. I have learned to place all my worries and burdens on God, since He has total control over the future and not me, and I trust His judgment. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I know you don't know me, but please know that I'm proud of the strides you've made to overcome this mountain. I know that it is no easy task.

The fact that he said he's trying to break the cycle in his family. I totally agree brother. Ppl dnt understand the struggle, the pain, the loss that comes with walking with God. Just know God always been thr in your corner even when u thought he wasn't. I had to endure through a lot in my life and reading the bible and getting to know Jesus for myself and going through test and trials really built my character to know when the storm comes I'm protected because the God I serve and my life is in his hands. Doubt, fear, anxiety is not of God. So I focus on his goodness and everyday he allows me to wake up it will be a good day no matter the circumstances may look like. Blessings to u brother stay close to God he all we got.

i was 17 when i lost my mother two years ago, my whole life stopped. the shock of losing someone so important to me broke me mentally. memories from before her passing are faint now, i still deal with the grief but i try to block it and not to think about it so much. my mother died from alcoholism, in the back of my mind i knew it would eventually take her life, and i tried to get her sober, i didnt realise that after so many years of drinking that dependency would actually form, which made it harder for her to get sober. what hurts the most is that ill never see her sober again, the thought of not seeing her get better hurts. (not to make this about me), i still deal with regret and the thought of all the things and action i didnt take; missing a phone call, not visiting her, cancelling a plan. id do anything to get those moments back. she was 51. thank you phil for making this video, everyone goes thru their own personal hell, you observe and learn from it and come out stronger and wiser than before.

I remember this video rundomly coming up on my feed 9 months ago. I was struck by the caption cause I needed to hear the words "stop worrying". Back then I was struggling with my health I was near living this earth, I would wake up each day wondering how I woke up and losing the will to live. But my God showed up through this video and gave me so much peace and strength. God always has a plan and no matter how much pain we going through he will never let us slip. Your words truly uplifted my spirit. Back when I was watching this video I had no strength to even type, but I am back here 9 months later to say Thank You for the hope you've restored to plenty who've watched this video and your channel. May God continue revealing himself through you 🙏🏽❤️
