Prayers made me.

It is true. I have come to the conclusion that prayers have made me who I am today.
In a world where in order for an anxious person such as me to survive, I believe the following has helped me cope with everything in my life:

1. Prayers.
2. Continuous, incessant counselling by your support system (in my case, I had my family.)
3. Prayers.
4. Appointments with the Psychiatrist (who prescribed me anxiolytic and antidepressant.)
5. Prayers.
6. Sessions with my psychotherapist.
7. Prayers.
8. Travelling to a place I felt most relaxed (in my case, it was my second family who lived in the city next to ours.)
9. Prayers.
10. Continuous, non-stop self-counselling.
11. Prayers.
12. Following a holistic diet plan.
13. Prayers.


There is a concept of "Heart Rate Variability" in our medical studies, where it is concluded through years of research that the greater variability in your heart rate, the better your health will be. I ave just recently come across this concept and it makes sense to me because of the following reason.

The other day I was studying for my Obstetrics exam; the topic that I had in front of me was CTG which is cardiotocograph and it is a graph that shows how the fetus is doing inside the mom's womb. One of its components was "Fetal Heart Rate Variability". Our book said that if a fetus's heart rate variability decreases, it indicates that the fetus is in trouble! Which means that the fetus is not getting enough oxygen, which if left unmanaged, will ultimately lead to fetal death. :'(

I was awestruck.

The reason I have mentioned this little nugget of information here is that,

Change is important in order to keep your heart rate variability intact and you going.

Anxious people such as me, detest change in their lives. Keeping in view the above knowledge, anxious people need to get out more and stop caring what people around them think of them. Period. 😁
