بِسۡمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحۡمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ
Tawakkul (trust in Allah and using the means given by Him) is the strongest medicine for hopelessness and anxiety, dont deprive yourself of it!
Many times we say Tawakkalthu ALLAH but we don't say from the bottom of our heart.
ALLAH(Azwajal) says in Chapter 3 verse 159:
If Allah should aid you, no one can overcome you; but if He should forsake you, who is there that can aid you after Him? And upon Allah let the believers put their trust
Also ALLAH(Azwajal) says in Chapter 3 verse 59:
"Allah loves those who put their trust (in Him)"
Tawakkul has three levels: putting trust (in Allaah), then submitting, then entrusting (one’s affairs to Allaah); so the one who puts his trust (in Allaah) is reassured by His promise, and the one who submits is content with His knowledge, and the one who entrusts (his affairs to Allaah) is pleased with His decree.’”
Remember the story of Father of Yusuf (AS):
When the brothers of Yusuf (AS) wanted to kill him they said to his father
[12:7] Certainly were there in Joseph and his brothers signs for those who ask
[12:12] Send him with us tomorrow to enjoy himself and play, and verily, we will take care of him."
[12:13] He [Ya'qub (Jacob)] said: "Truly, it saddens me that you should take him away. I fear lest a wolf should devour him, while you are careless of him."
[12:14] They said, " If a wolf should eat him while we are a [strong] clan, indeed, we would then be losers."
[12:14] They said, " If a wolf should eat him while we are a [strong] clan, indeed, we would then be losers."
So the brothers threw him into the bottom of the well.
Some of the Mufassir's comment on this saying Ya'qub (AS) didn't put his trust on ALLAH but he feared that a wolf may eat him..
In another incident in the Story of Yunus(AS)
Yunus(AS) was angry with the disbelief of the people and boarded the ship.
[10:98]. Yunus, meanwhile, went and traveled with some people on a
ship, which was tossed about on the sea. The people were afraid that
they would drown, so they cast lots to choose a man whom they would
throw overboard. The lot fell to Yunus, but they refused to throw him
overboard. This happened a second and a third time. Allah says:
﴿فَسَـهَمَ فَكَانَ مِنَ الْمُدْحَضِينَ ﴾
(Then he (agreed to) cast lots, and he was among the losers.)
[37:141] meaning, the draw went against him, so Yunus stood up, removed
his garment and cast himself into the sea.

Here the people were afraid of the heavy tides, but did not put their Trust on ALLAH..
.There are many such waves in our life.. From unexpected sides..
But the believer should always put there trust on ALLAH (Azwajal) and he says
حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ
حَسْبُنَا اللَّهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ
[3:173] "Allah (Alone) is Sufficient for us, and He is the Best Disposer of affairs (for us)."
and say
and say
قُل لَّن يُصِيبَنَا إِلَّا مَا كَتَبَ اللَّهُ لَنَا هُوَ مَوْلَانَا ۚ وَعَلَى اللَّهِ فَلْيَتَوَكَّلِ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ
[9:51] Say: "Nothing shall ever happen to us except what Allah has ordained for us. He is our Maula (Lord, Helper and Protector)." And in Allah let the believers put their trust.
[46:13] Indeed, those who have said, "Our Lord is Allah ," and then remained on a right course - there will be no fear concerning them, nor will they grieve.
[41:30] Indeed, those who have said, "Our Lord is Allah " and then remained on a right course - the angels will descend upon them, [saying], "Do not fear and do not grieve but receive good tidings of Paradise, which you were promised.
