Hi everyone,

I’ve posted several times on here about my mental health issues and wanted to post again. Firstly, to say thank you for everyone’s support but also because I can feel the depression creeping up again - after a few good days.

The one thing that I find comforting and helpful is prayer and going to mass. I will be there tomorrow morning at 10 am and would appreciate everyone’s prayers to see me through what I can only describe as hell.

God bless,

Andy
 
Dear Andy, many of us here understand depression
and anxiety, so please feel you can request prayer
anytime. 🙂

In the comfort of Your love, I pour out to
You, my Savior, the memories that haunt
me, the anxieties that perplex me, the fears
that stifle me, the sickness that prevails
upon me, and the frustration of all the pain
that weaves about within me.
Lord, help me to see
Your peace in my turmoil,
Your compassion in my sorrow,
Your forgiveness in my weakness,
And Your love in my need.
Touch me, O Lord, with Your healing
power and strength.
Amen. ❤️

Eternal God , in whom mercy is endless,
and the treasury of compassion inexhastible ,
look kindly upon us and increase Your mercy in us ,
that in difficult moments we might not despair
nor become despondent , but with great confidence ,
submit ourselves to Your Holy Will ,
which is love and mercy itself . 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
 
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.

Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

Our Lady of Mental Peace, Mother of Tranquility and Mother of Hope, look upon me in this time of disquiet and weakness.
Still my restless spirity, teach my searching heart to know that God’s love for me is unchanging and that the suffering which He may will for me now is to draw me closer to Him.
Let they gentle peace and His — which the world cannot give — be always with me, that I may be sanctified: and then: I beseech thee for the grace to bring this peace to others.
Jesus, My Savior, I give myself entirely to thee through Mary:
Our Lady of Mental Peace, pray for me!!
 
Thanks everyone, some really nice prayers - all very much appreciated 🙂
 
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 our death.
Amen.
 
Father of us all, bring the light of Christ into this life.
 
Immediately call your mental health professional: psychiatrist and therapist. Your medication may need adjusting.

Serious depression is just that: serious, insidious, destructive. Turning to God does help of course because He is in control but…He also allows our free will and the medical profession is there for a reason, ultimately His reason. Do not “play” with this. Call your doctors.
 
loving Jesus I pray that this person may be granted the comfort and peace of Your love. Our hope and our joy, I pray that this person may be granted the strength, patience and peace.

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. Amen.

Pray The Holy Rosary twice daily while jogging, walking, swimming, lifting bar-bells and dum-bells which trigger a muscle in the arm connected to the brain to lift depressive episodes!

Please Dear God our Heavenly Father, The Holy Spirit, Dear Jesus Christ our Saviour and Dear Our Lady Mary Mother of Jesus could You please lift all depression in Thy Child and all of Thy Children throughout Your World Lord, through Your Divine Love and Mercy, now and for Eternity, Amen

Hail Mary Full of Grace, The Lord is with Thee, Blessed art Thou amoung 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 death, Amen.

Evil finds it most difficult to work through “what is the Lord’s ‘good’ for us” being healthy eating patterns, exercising regularly (walking, jogging, swimming, playing tennis or a sport), Fasting regularly, Attending Reconciliation regularly, attending Mass each week, Praying for as much throughout each day as possible, following Jesus’ Commandments as we all know. This counteracts and rids illnesses, depression, anxiety, negative situations and allowing Jesus to work through these things and expel them! I would be placing as many of Jesus and Mother Mary’s Holy Images throughout your home and vehicle and Holy Cards/Jesus Images in your pockets during the day which is getting rid of the negatives around you at this time.

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 all evil, Amen,

The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside still waters;
He restores my soul. He leads me in right paths For His Name’s sake.
Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I fear no evil;
For you are with me;
Your rod and Your staff - they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies, You anoint my head with oil; My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life. And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord My whole life long.

You are not alone, Praise and Thanks be to Thee Dear Jesus Christ our Saviour from all of Thy Children here on Thy Earth now and for Eternity, Amen

Again, I really appreciate everyone’s support and prayers.

My mood is so up and down at the moment - one minute I feel on top of the world, the next I don’t want to live.

Friday was the latter and one of the worst days of my life.

I’m going back to mass tonight and wanted to say thanks to everyone who has prayed.
