Thank you so much. I just feel like giving up lately. I am stuck and I am afraid. The biggest thing that hit me yesterday was I went to see my first ultrasound of my son and I couldn’t feel happy about seeing it. I was just worried about all the what ifs and the thought that I have to make myself better before he gets here. God I hope he isn’t like me.

Thank you all. I think the issues I am currently having are medication related. God I hope they are anyway. It seems like each morning I get in the ultra anxious mode and can’t do anything to break it (short of taking other medication to calm myself down). I have stopped the medication that I believe is the problem however I am still having the side effects (I think this medication takes a while to start and stop working). I feel like my own mind is torturing me, why does God let things like this happen? I feel like my faith is really being tested because I continue to plead to him and I feel like no one answers. Am I meant to suffer like this? I have never thought of suicide before (nor am I now) but I can see how one would think of it sometimes. You just feel trapped and there doesn’t seem to be any good answers but to endure. I only feel like I can endure this for so long and I can’t see any relief. God please come to my aid.

All prayers go with you, and I hope you have a trusted physician and also a spiritual advisor close by to talk to. God is such a loving Father and is “closer than a brother,” wanting only the best for you. Life is so precious, and each person is too. No, you were not made to suffer like this, but when you are suffering, God grieves with you. Sometimes we feel things so deeply: God gives us our hearts and minds, so anything we go through, He goes through it all with us.

On the Cross, His lament was real, HIs suffering real, HIs passion real. He understands all loneliness and can lift us up just as surely as He rose for Us in the Resurrection! In this life and the next, He loves you and welcomes your prayers. **

Hail Mary, full of grace
The Lord is with thee
Blessed art thou amongst women
And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus

Holy Mary, Mother of God
Pray for us sinners
Now and at the hour of our deaths
Amen

Oh my Jesus
Forgive us our sins
Save us from the fires of hell
And lead all souls to Heaven
Especially those in most need of thy mercy
Amen

Glory be to The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit
As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be
World without end
Amen
 
Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided.
Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you do I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen

Amen. I couldn’t have said it any better! 👍
 
My prayers are with you, Susan, LSUpathdoc, and those who suffer from anxiety, depression and panic attacks. It is real and very trying on those suffering from it.

Keep trusting in the Lord- He understands.
He suffered in the most horrific way, by dying on the cross-- all because He loves us so much.
He felt pain and sorrow.
He suffered the Passion in His mind before He suffered it in His body. To the point where He sweated drops of blood.

:blessyou: :heaven:
 
Omnipotent and eternal God, the everlasting Salvation of those who believe, hear us on behalf of Thy servant, LSpathdoc., for whom we beg the aid of Thy pitying mercy, that, with his health restored, he may give thanks to Thee in Thy church. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
 
Thank you to all of you. Hopefully I can get myself together soon. I am taking some time off to try to understand the source of my anxiety and try to deal with it.
 
Although not always able to be online, I’m praying.
Suffering is only understood best by our Lord who knows the
ultimate suffering and therefore understands better than anyone.
He extends His arms of love to carry us THROUGH the suffering.
(not always “around” the suffering) Trust Him to bring good
out of what may seem evil…the God who created you and knows
you is ABLE. In ourselves we can do NOTHING. This will be
HIM working in you.

Love in Him,
mlz

and keep you;
the LORD make his face shine on you
and be gracious to you;
the LORD turn his face toward you
and give you peace.” Num 6:24-26

Continued prayers.
 
I understand your pain and suffering. Depression can take a toll on one’s life. Asking for prayers and praying for you.

Lord, grant LSUpathdoc strength to overcome all his pain and suffering. Ask God to heal your fear, anxiety, and worries. Let the Lord give you his serenity and protection.

Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

Hail Mary,
Full of Grace,
The Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou among women,
and blessed is the fruit
of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary,
Mother of God,
pray for us sinners now,
and at the hour of death.

Glory be to the Father,
and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit.
As it was in the beginning,
is now,
and ever shall be,
world without end.

Amen.

God Bless You
