Please pray for me. Increasingly I am overwhelmed with anger about everything and everyone. I don't want to be like this and would never harm anyone.
Unfortunately that means it is all inside, making me more and more unwell. The anger and resentment is about all sorts of reasons over a long time.
I have forgotten what it is to be relaxed and happy, as I was when I was a child. I am so very tired.

I've resorted to the stoic approach to navigating through this life. It is one that is not about denying our emotions as much as it is not allowing them to determine our reaction to outside forces. Another way of putting it is, "what happens outside of me cannot affect what happens inside of me" and so my inner peace is guarded. That's really the only thing I'm left any power over, because "out there" is total chaos. May the Lord bless you and keep you in His perfect peace.

Adrenal fatigue can result from long term stress, physical or emotional trauma.
I would look for online help from a natural pathic doctor with a good reputation after sharing this with your pastor.
A good friend and family member can be of help too. Also remember that one ministry of the Holy Spirit is the Comforter. He is available in times like these.

Best to you for a strong recovery.

Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

- Romans 8:26 (KJV)

Absolutely, I need to control the anger inside me when people treat me badly. I automatically stay quiet because I hate confrontation, I just want a quiet life. Yet inside I seethe. I know that negative energy is draining my vitality and producing disease. Knowing that just makes me more angry.
I am praying for help from Jesus.

You need to surround yourself with genuine friends or with believers who don't have their heads "in the clouds" also you might want to consider seeing a doctor-nothing wrong with that.

Where coffee may induce irritability, the vitamin B complex provides a similar 'pick me up' and also possesses stress reducing components to it, . It just isn't as enjoyable experience to administer as coffee is but much more 'essential' than coffee. Also, a topical application of magnesium helps to repair the damage that stress might have incurred and so also has stress relieving properties. I think that there must be something to the reality that the skin so readily absorbs it, and I'd venture to say even eagerly like it thirsts for it and carries it to whatever most critic area of need. I think of it as sort of the triage of well-being.

I keep a supply of Frankincense and Myrrh essential oil blend also, commonly put into anointing oils. This provides me with the natural benefits of each as well as reminds me of God's blessings of healing and refuge when applying it. Myrrh has pain relieving properties, but I forget the exact benefits of Frankincense other than its pleasant aroma.

MaryM,

This is a class that you may be interested in.
Dr. Hyman is addressing brain inflammation as it pertains to food consumption. This is a common source of various disorders that are helped by personal choices. Even if it is not related to your challenges whatsoever, I believe that he makes some good observations and might be helpful for overall health.

He tries to pack as much info into the time as possible. If he goes too fast to focus, I would break it up into 15 minute+/- intervals or go to the settings ( cog/ wheel shaped icon) and adjust the speed accordingly.

Dr. Hyman
