Bumfuzzled hoopla

I need a synonym for overwhelmed. Wordslike bumfuzzled or flabbergasted work, but if I say "I'm flabbergasted with life," you would be distracted with a word like "flabbergasted" and wouldn't pay as much attention to the meaning of the sentence. "I'm overwhelmed with life" sounds too trite and not at all attention-grabbing.

I really try to embrace my life options. The fact that I have so many choices is very, very nice. It's adventurous, yes, but it's so confusing. And people say, "keep praying, just keep praying." Here's where I hit another groove in my Christian tabula rasa of life.
We all know I suck at praying. I'm just bad. God has to have a lot of humor and frustration with my terrible prayer attempts. But if I pray for something once, why should I keep praying for it? God cannot like monotonous prayers. Sure, it shows our desires for things, but whether or not I pray for something--even answers--God knows my heart. So is repeating a request so useful? I wonder.

I ask God for answers quite often. But it doesn't mean he'll show them to me. It doesn't mean he will give me signs. He may not answer. I mean, doesn't God give people choices? Wouldn't he give us opportunities?

For fear of sounding redundant and quite immature, I'm cutting myself off now.
