Chapter 61 Not eating for 18 consecutive days

Three months ago, my heart was full of worries. I tossed and turned for four days and nights, couldn't sleep, couldn't eat for 18 days, and even the smell of food was unbearable.I simply can't find the right words to describe the mental pain I'm going through.I felt myself on the verge of madness, on the brink of death. The moment I received a book became a turning point in my life.In the past three months, I almost depended on this book for my survival. I read every page, every paragraph and every sentence in detail to get fresh nutrients from it.The psychological strength this book has given me is unbelievable. It has enabled me to cope with life's great challenges, and has made me fully aware that the reason why I was semi-crazy in the past was because I was not only concerned about today's problems. Anxiety, but also anxiety and pain about what happened yesterday and what will happen tomorrow.

Now, when I catch myself worrying about something again, I stop myself and use some of the basic principles I learned in the book to overcome those worries.I let myself do what I have to do today, do it today, and forget about it. When I encountered problems that almost drove me crazy, I could calmly apply the three steps in the second chapter of the first part of this book to solve them.First, I ask myself what the worst possible scenario could be; second, I try to internalize the results; and third, I focus on the problem itself and see how it can be improved. If I find myself troubled by a difficult problem that I cannot change and I don't want to accept, I repeat this short prayer to myself:

"May the Lord grant me the peace to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I cannot change; the wisdom to see the difference." After reading this book, I started to enjoy a truly bright life and stop letting anxiety ruin my health and happiness.Now, I can sleep nine hours a day and eat with gusto.Many obstacles in life have been removed, and the door to a happy life is open for me, waiting for me to enjoy it to the fullest.I want to thank God for giving me life and for living in such a beautiful world. It is recommended that you put this book by your bedside, read it carefully, and study and use it.This is not an ordinary "idle book", but a "guide", a life guide to guide you to achieve happiness.
