Does your faith help or hurt your struggle with anxiety?

[Concernedgal]

I believe in God I always have. I remember going to church every Sunday and Sunday night. One if the gifts that God has Givin me is an amazing singing voice which I used to in a choir. I'm not sure if this anxiety and depression is a sign that I should change my life or a punishment for a past sin. I just don't know but, I can't tell you how many times prayer has gotten me out of a bad panic attack or at night before I go to bed prayer has helped me fall asleep faster. Not all the time but, most. I know that God lovesme and I just know that there's a reason why we go through what we do everyday. I get through everyday because of him. My faith actually reduces my anxiety sometimes because I say to myself" whatever happens is God's will".
