    • Making Dua for you. And May Allah continue to bless you with strength and healing.
    • Salam. Welcome to ShiaChat. Not sure if you are female or male, but we are glad that you are here. When I was young I used to read books and daydream a lot, to escape the realities of life. After I became a Muslim, I organized my life around the prayer times. My advice is to take a sheet of paper (or just open word on your computer) and put the time to wake up at the top and the time to go to bed at the bottom. Write in the prayer times and leave time for making wudu before your prayers. Write in the times you will eat breakfast, lunch and dinner (or if you are fasting, the time for sahar and iftar. If you have trouble sleeping at night, don't nap during the day. However, if you stay awake at night to pray, read duas, use tasbih and read the Holy Qur'an, like in the last ten nights of the Holy Month of Ramadan, it might help if you take a one, two or three hour rest before maghrib prayer (close your eyes and rest on the bed, even if you do not fall asleep, at least your body is motionless). If you have school or a job, write those down as well. Time to study, time to exercise or just take a walk. So put all the wajib things you need to do on your list and decide when you will do them. This will keep you on track and focused on what needs to be done so you won't forget anything. I guess people have different apps on their phone to schedule their day, but it is probably less stressful to just stick to the sheet of paper and keep it in your pocket or save it to the word file on your computer. If you have a smart phone, you can set alarms to remind you to get out of the chair and do what you need to do. Try to think more about your future and not about the past. Take care of yourself. Making dua for you.
    • There was a shooting at the university where I study. (I'm almost never actually there. I take online classes.)  It is being investigated as part of a terrorist plot because the suspect, who was killed by students in the class where he murdered the professor, was convicted ten years ago for giving money to an FBI agent who was pretending to be a member of ISIS.  I'm already seeing internet chatter blaming Iran.  I'm not surprised anymore by the ignorance of Americans, but I do continue to be disappointed.  
    • That is what this global scale psyop they are doing is about. They want people to become afraid, stress out with unbelievable news what feels like every other day so people give in to the animalistic code. When that happens, when people get overwhelmed in such situations we (a) stop thinking what to do about it and (b) seek contact with the tribe to (c) obey the authority by letting the tribe or authority deal with the overwhelmingly worrying problem. This is their current mind control strategy. We were told Antichrist will use mind control in a big way remember? Luckily we know Allah and that through life He has always taken the hottest potatoes off our hands and dealt with those problems in the best ways so that it left us praising Him about that later. He is our authority, the believers our tribe. So there is no need for a believer to stress out thinking of even these disasters. Just interrupt the stream of stress inducing thoughts. Whatever Allah will allow to happen will be the best for us and it will be just water under the bridge as usual.

      "˹Remember, O  Prophet,˺ when you said to the believers, “Is it not enough that your Lord will send down a reinforcement of three thousand angels for your aid?” Most certainly, if you ˹believers˺ are firm and mindful ˹of Allah˺ and the enemy launches a sudden attack on you, Allah will reinforce you with five thousand angels designated ˹for battle˺. Allah ordained this ˹reinforcement˺ only as good news for you and reassurance for your hearts. And victory comes only from Allah—the Almighty, All-Wise—" https://quran.com/3:126/tafsirs/en-tafsir-maarif-ul-quran
