I Can't Focus On Anything But This Bad Feeling

Hi TimeIsHere, what you feel may be the fruit of some internal disorder, or, as Homeopathy expresses it, "a body disease affecting the mind". I think this to be the most probable cause, as it is quite an unspecific feeling of fear or dread, and as it aggravates at regular hours as some kinds of physical disease also tend to do.
A Naturopathist, or even better, a Classical Homeopathist, could help I think. I am a German physician specialized on latter method. In USA there are some of my profession, though not esteemed as much as they should but despised as charlatans by the official organs of medicine. Do not listen to the official lies on Homeopathy. Inform yourself about the method in WWW and then check out if there be a practitioner of it near your place.
Moreover, it is easy to say focus on the positive if one does not have your problem but very difficult if one does have it. Do not feel inferior if you do not manage to "think positive". It is better to focus on "do positive", do good deeds and pray to God the way you have learnt it - follow the religion of your heart.
Many people feel that there is a "big bang in the bush" as to things in the world as a whole. They are right. Many saints already told us how to deal with that. They say Work and Pray, Love your Neighbor, show your Respect for your Planet in daily life (eat healthy, do not purchase things unnecessary, and if possible cultivate a garden to have good fruit and vegetables for you and your friends) and keep off things which bring you down or infiltrate your brains with low, dirty attitudes, as are many of the movies one sees in T.V., product ads and soap stories oozing with sex, violent Rap "lyrics" etc.
This will not make your fear go away but it gives you the chance to make out of it a motor of good karma. Man's purpose of life is to make valuable things out of something worthless. Remember God made Man by kneading clay with his hands, as a small child does when playing in the mud. He lowered Himself to play with mud in order to make the most intelligent species "similar to His image"! This is exactly how we, His kids, shall imitate Him in daily life. Do not shrink from dirtying your hands in useful work but shrink very much from dirtying your thoughts. Do not fear to be called naive if you have this attitude. The ones who taunt good persons like that are the really naive ones, that's a fact.

I know what you mean. People have lost touch with their spiritual energy and as the reign of man continues with out love and respect for the higher power our days are numbered. But as AnneV said, you can't stop something on a global scale. I often weep for the world, for the vile that it human creation and all the saddness they bring, but then I remember all I can do is love the world, anything else I try to do is a waste of spiritual energy. If they can't learn from your love they won't learn at all. In the mean time you can bask in the love you have and the love you share and it can be a solstice for the pain you feel for the inevitable.

Another thing you could try to lighten up the fear and anxiety over this event is focus on it. I know you say its all that you focus on, but when you do you're focusing on the fear of the event not the event itself. If you focus on the actual event causing your fear it might help you.

There's nothing you can do to prevent what you think my happen so I agree with Anne that you should trust that things happen for a reason, if they're supposed to happen they'll happen no matter what you do, or fear.

Fear is a process you can stop it in its tracks if you focus on it. Next time you start feeling the fear the worst think "I don't have to be afraid about this, it will not consume my day." You can break the pattern that keeps repeating in your head.

I hope this helps a little,
Good luck.

That cannot be fun to live in so much fear. Know however that bad things happen all of the time. Some small, some earth altering. This is part of life here on this plane and planet. My wise sister always said to me that if you can't change what you're worried about, stop worrying. You cannot stop bad from happening on a global scale. What will be will be. How do you know it's not supposed to happen? Maybe the earth needs a cleansing? We don't know the bigger picture, only a snapshot of our own lives.

Trust that things happen for a reason. You can waste years of your life stressing over something that may not even happen. You're not living in the now but some hypothetical future and is that really where your consciousness should be? For all the past and all the future there is only really a now. The choice is yours on how to spend your thoughts, but even with all the bad out there, there is still good event and good people. If you look for them, instead of looking for the bad, they will come out of the woodwork and some of your anxiety (which left unattended can become a mental disorder) will fade.
