I suffer from depression and anxiety and it certainly is real. I pray a lot and depend on God a lot.
It has been my experience that God is there during the panic attack, even when I dont feel Him.
When He calms the storm of my out of control emotions-and hormones, I can see that He never left me.
In fact, He carried me across the turbulent sea and deposited me on dry land.
He is our hope when we feel we have none.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever. Psalm 23
Peace be with you.
