“I am afflicted and ready to die from my youth up: while I suffer thy terrors I am distracted.”
The affliction is lifelong: "Wretched and close to death from my youth, I suffer your terrors; I am desperate." The supplicant claims that suffering has characterized the entire life from youth. The terrors attributed to God suggest that God is experienced as the source of affliction.
