Hey guys, let me introduce myself
Names Andrew, im 19, live in England and in medschool (yes we don't need pre-med to go to medschool in england)
This is a long post so PLEASE, PLEASE read all of it, i would really appreciate it, thankyou.
The past 5 weeks my life has literally been ruined.
Basically, i used to play an online game 2 years ago, and added this guy on msn, and 2 years later he was still on my msn and about 5 weeks ago I finally talked to him. We were talking about all the publicity about Jay-Z whos apparently a devil worshipper or whatever, which troubled me since i like his music alot.
Anyway, after about 10min of that topic, he started telling me about god and how if we sin we go to hell..and he came up with many bible quotes and so on...Im catholic and i go to church every week, but never have really been religious...
So he told me many things like if we hate someone its the same as murder and if we look at women lustfully its the same as raping them according to the bible...which i thought was complete nonsense until he told me to look it up and it was true.. (hes born again christian)
Since then I was really scared of God, scared to sin and very scared of going to Hell. I'm not really a type of guy who gets scared by these kind of things, but this really frightened me.
I spoke to him for about 6 days each time being about 1 hour. From that first day i started to have panic attacks all day, and my heart was pumping really fast and my eczema was flaring up really bad. (This happened at the end of september).
Since then I've seen 2 priests, a hypnotherapist and a psychiatrist and also talked with my parents and several other family members.
The priests told me not to take the bible literally and stuff, but it didn't help me, the hypnotherapist helped to reduce the panic attacks and since then I have felt better indeed, and im still waiting for the psychiatrist to refer me to a friend of hers.
I've also left medschool due to me being unable to cope at this point, however they said my place is still there for next year, but its a 50:50 thing and I could lose it..In addition my healths really has gone down, weight loss, etc etc...(sorry to tell you my problems)
Anyway, I have been thinking about this EVERYDAY for the past 5 weeks, and my parents have let me stay at home and told me whatever professional help i want, just to tell them and they will get me it (yes they are really supportive)
I always feel a huge weight on my shoulders...yes that kind of feeling and whatever I do...even walk, talk, im ALWAYS thinking about god and my fear of him, fear of sinning and fear of going to hell. Before this incident I was a good guy and did things out of love for god, but now im terrified.
I doubt that having a "stepwise/or stage" progession to get out of this would help me...since I'm like "if it's there it's there, or if its gone its gone".
Im really unable to do ANYTHING atm..and im searching for a more modern hypnotherapy clinic in central London. However, i think the only way this will stop if I have no consience recall of it..aka forgetting it totally via hypnotherapy.
Please advise me guys, I can't express how i feel at the moment and my lifes going down the drain.
Thanks :(
