I'm freaking out January 1, 2017,

OK after years of worrying myself to a near death bed, I was almost convinced the world would end on 21st. So it never i felt relaxed and calm but then I was reading news and seen that January 1, 2017, when followers of The Sword of God Brotherhood say the real Apocalyse will strike. It's got me feeling like i want to bury my head again. Also this --Irish saint Malachy said in 1143 there would be 112 more Popes before the world ends — we’re on No 111. OK thats made me feel like crap again. Do i need help? I'm 18 and believe & worry about anything.

I worried like this too im 19.But truth is in the bible only god knows when not even son know when the world will end.If you know they said May 2003 would be the end of the world when that failed they moved it to Dec 21 2012.Now that failed they moved it the 'end' is.No one will ever know when the world will end but God himself.They can say they do but really dont.It will happen when he decides the time is right.I would just live life to its fullest while u can.Worring isnt going to help any I learnt that the hard way.I hope this helps in some way :) Hope u have a good night

Don't listen to that guy talking about OCD. I think you do need help though. You sound anxious and when that's something that negatively affects your life it becomes a mental disorder. There is nothing wrong with seeking mental help and you have nothing to be ashamed of by doing so.

Also you need to realize that a lot of the things you are reading on the Internet are lies and distortions and much of it comes from unreliable sources. Why trust Saint Malachy? His predictions are vague and it takes some twisting to get them to match historical popes. Why trust the Sword of God Brotherhood? They're a cult.

Oh for Christ's sake! You just--today--witnessed the utter failure of the previous doomsday prediction, and now you're worried sick about the next one? Shouldn't the previous failure be a serious clue that doomsday predictions consistently fail?
