UDUJ:
Toby calm down. It's all in your head bro (purely psychological).

I will explain in detail once I get home.

donstan18:
You didn't sanctify the sex you had with that lady.

You should have prayed before sex, we should always remember to call God in every enjoyment we do, for he's is our provider.

Always pray before sex.

Grayjoy:
Wanted to say something until I read the spiritual aspect. What to do I know about the spiritual.

mistyebby:


Wonderful. Marital or premarital sex??

So if you pray before, what will you do afterwards?

SirToby:

Just advice me on how i can calm down and have a sound sleep. The last time you had a good sleep was on Friday.

So You Are Joking with God. What You Dont Know Is That God Has A Very Low Sense Of Humor....

He Forgave You First Time And You Went Back Again...


Right Now, God Will Be Telling The 24 Elders "This Boy Thinks I'm his Mate"...

mistyebby:


I agree with Uduj, its in your head. Be patient and let him explain.

But have you been idle lately?

SirToby:

yeah in my head i agree. i have been a little bit idle. i'm a lil bit weak due to lack of good sleep. i have work to do but no motivation to do it, eyes are always red. last time I had a good sleep was on Friday.

mistyebby:


If you are idle, try get busy. When you done with work, see movies, listen to music, chat, come on Nairaland

Then it could be nutritional deficiency. So take lots of fruits like orange, banana, pineapple, berries, nuts, vegetables and most important milk or yoghurt before you sleep.

Then write out all your worries, promise yourself not to think about them and discard it.

You can also visit the pharmacy for some antidepressants recommended by a pharmacist. Also use the opportunity to check your blood pressure. If your blood pressure is normal then you are fine

Just calm down okay. You will be fine.

UDUJ:
SirToby please don’t bring religion into this. God is not punishing you for any activity you feel you did

You suffer from Anxiety. Anxiety is a mental health disorder and affects over 60% of Nigerians but because of the way our society is designed we decide not to treat it cause of the supposed stigma attached to such. When people think of anxiety, they think of worrying and stress. They think of fears and a feeling as though something is going to go wrong. Anxiety is seen in thoughts and actions.

But anxiety has a tremendous physical component, and one of the key contributors to those physical sensations is long term stress. This Stress has a tremendous impact on your health, and one of the most common conditions is feeling ill.


The stress from anxiety can cause feelings of very genuine sickness. These feelings often mimic the way illnesses make you feel. Your stomach can feel like it's rumbling and you may even feel like you are having fever or malaria. Feeling sick may be a sign that you've fallen ill, but it can also be a clear sign of anxiety.

When we are stressed and the stress is a prolonged one (e.g. grief), it is physically very hard on the body to maintain this stress response for a prolonged period, so we have to find ways to take our body out of this stress response. Some of these ways are spending time with friends, counselling, medication, mindfulness, making sure we eat and sleep enough, massage, hypnosis etc. There are lots of different things that can help.

Anxiety can weaken your immune system, increasing the risk of suffering from mild illness.

Feeling ill is something that often causes concern. Some people feel so sick that they vomit or experience profound nausea that keeps them away from their activities. Some people experience more than just nausea as well. They may experience other symptoms that are similar to catching a fever, malaria or flu. They may feel like their organss are swollen, or their tongue is dry. They may feel lightheaded. They may even cough or experience severe stomach discomfort, like indigestion.

When anxiety is causing these symptoms, they're not dangerous. Anxiety is simply your body's misfiring of the body's natural fight or flight response, and the way your body reacts is designed to make sure that you know you're supposed to be fearful.
The problem isn't the signals themselves, the problem is that you're experiencing them all the time, often when it is inconvenient. People feel these symptoms for different reasons:

Situational anxiety is actually natural. It's inconvenient, but it's natural. Back in school, if you felt severe illness before a big test, it's because you genuinely feared that test. While tests shouldn't provide that fear, the reaction is not unexpected.

But on the other hand, the one you should fear and what I think you have is Feelings of chronic illness from anxiety which is even more problematic, because when your anxiety won't go away, the feeling of being ill won't go away either. It becomes something that makes you feel worse about your health, saps your energy, and can ruin each and every day (all symptoms you are feeling now).

My recommendation: go to the clinic and see a trained therapist. He will prescribe some good anti-depressants. You will be okay.

SirToby:
Good evening friends. It all started with malaria two weeks ago and i used Lonart, i was relieved for some period and i started feeling feverish again. I ran a test and it confirmed Malaria is still positive, and the doctor prescribed P alaxin, i used it but i started feeling restless and uncomfortable since saturday, i have not been Sleeping well, even in my short sleep i have nightmares. i started using Piriton two days ago but i have not been feeling alright, my mind is so heavy and my heart beats so fast, i can't just sleep. I have tried to calm myself down and my friends also have spoken to me but it has not
been working and i just don't know what to do.

IN ADDITION: I'm a pastor's child and similar thing happened to me last year, i was so sick that i could not sleep for days, i remember i prayed and promised God never to have any intercourse with any woman till i marry if i can be healed and start having a good sleep. But the fact remains i'm not a wayward child and the last time I had sex prior to that prayer was 2015.

But two weeks ago, i was tempted and i could not resist the urge and i had sex with a lady but the sickness has already began prior to the sex but it has not Metamorphosized to sleeplessness and restlessness. I have asked God for forgiveness and i sincerely promise him never to do such again and i'm ready to stand by it this time. I knelt on the alter after Sunday service to make the vow.


But i'm scared maybe God is punishing me for breaking my vow with him the first time and he wants me to confess to my parents that are pastors. Please i need reasonable advise, i'm so scared to sleep whenever i wants to, my eyes are so red as i'm typing now due to lack of sleep. And which medicine can i talk or what can i do to put my mind at rest. Thanks Friends.

Greatzeus:

Sir,we are biological beings and spiritual beings,as long as we are humans we will have the cause to fall into different sickness,or bodily injury or pain etc. You need to treat yourself,and stop believing the lie of the devil that God is punishing you because of sex,its a lie. There are many who also do such immoral things,but they dont fall sick after,does it mean they should keep doing it No
If you want to be good,be good,not cause you are afraid of hell or judgement. If you want to serve God,serve God not because he will punish you if you dont,but because
" You were created to praise him,worship his majesty and give glory to his name"....Buchi
