Depression is setting in again, i feel quite hopeless, numb even. Though for the sake of my child i carry on and i thank god for the stenghth he has spared me, Although i now have no strength left. Im all out of hope. I feel terrible because there are people out there who need god more than i do, yet here i am asking for a small prayer a prayer for the strength to carry on. Trisha.
 
**I am battling depression now also.
Trisha, I am grateful I can still pray
and I will pray for you!

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.

Dear Trisha I’m so sorry to hear about your troubles. We all need God equally and God loves us equally. Depression is debilitating and overwhelming. I will remember you in my rosary. God bless you and your little boy,
Clare
 
Trisha I do know how it feels to be out of hope. I’ve always had some degree of depression but it’s pretty well masked by the fact that people need one, so one does what one can for them, as you do for your little boy. People wouldn’t pick it in me because my concern for others means I’m cheerful and kind to others like you are to your little boy. I thank God you have him and ask God to keep you both safe…and that God will give you wholesome joy in the little gifts of life, and the big one, your son.
Whatever is so difficult and painful and lonely in your life, I ask Jesus to go through them with you and touch and heal each thing.
Take care, Trisha, and keep in touch…love, Trishie
 
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
 
Trish,
I am sorry you are feeling this way. I have battle depression for 10 years now. You are in my prayers. I know how hard it can be with a small child. Hang in there. Remember that Christ felt your pain intensely. Even in your despair, if you cannot even form words, think of him, look upon him. Take a deep breath and say, “Here we go God.” And just put one foot in front of the other even if it is just to get to the kitchen. I will pray for you, please pray for me.

Jesus, understanding the pain of agony in loneliness and depression, please teach us the meaning of this suffering and release us from the bonds of despair. Teach us that we are being molded and brought closer to you. May we echo St. Paul’s words, “I am grateful for this thorn in my side for it brings me closer to my Lord.” May we abolish fear and find peace in our days. May we learn to not allow this world to rob us of our contentment in whatever life situation we may be in. May we use your gifts of medicine as you see fit under the guidance of a doctor that we ask you bring into our lives. Amen.
 
I offer you these thoughts and comments from Padre Pio, that your meditation upon them will be for your soul the grace of prayer and the mercy of GOD.

The mercy of GOD is infinitley greater than your malice. JESUS and your soul must cultivate the vineyard together. It is for you to pick and carry away the stones, to pull out the thorn bushes. It is the task of JESUS to sow, plant, cultivate and water.
The LORD, in HIS loving kindness, adds to trials a trembling of the spirit and fear, with some taste of desolation and spiritual darkness.
On this earth everyone has a Cross. But we must act in such a way that we be not the bad, but the good thief. At times the LORD makes you feel the burden of the Cross. This burden seems almost intolerable to you. But as for you, carry it because the LORD extends HIS hand and gives you strength.
Do not let your heart become troubled by the sad spectacle of human injustice, even this has its value in the face of all else. And it is from this that one day you will see the justice of GOD rising with unfailing triumph.
 
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.

You are a child of God. If you had been the only person on earth, Our Savior would have died just for you - or me or anyone! No problem, no issue or need is too big or too small for our Loving Father!

I make the mistake often of limiting or defining how great the Love of Our God is. He truly and deeply cares about all of us, down to the last detail. It isn’t a comparitive love - say, God can’t be concerned about us because someone is starving in Africa etc. He has the infinite power and compassion to see us all, everywhere, and wherever we are.

I pray that our Loving Father will see you through your pain, and that He will open your heart to see His work in you. Nothing, but nothing that happens to us is outside of God’s Wonderful Plan and He will see you and me and all of us through it.

Jesus, We trust in You!
 
Thank you all for praying for me thank you ever so much. God bless all of you. Trish.
 
Loving God please continue to reassure Trish with Your loving presence through the caring of others and in the conviction of Your love for her and her son.
 
Dear Trisha,

I am here. I am praying very hard for you. I believe that God will hear me. He wants you to pray too. If you can find the strength please pray with me. I need your prayers. The struggles of life can at times be overwhelming and seem hopeless. Life is not hopeless. Problems are temporary and will change and fade with time. I know I am just one person who doesn’t even know you but I am one person who cares and who shares the burdens you bear. I am asking God to send His angels to care for you now. May they shield you from further harm and lift you up to feel the warmth of Jesus’ love. Close your eyes now and pray with me please.

Hail Mary, full of grace
The Lord is with you
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
 
Trish,

I, too, suffer from intractable depression. I have come to accept that it is my main cross to bear. You are not alone. Oh, it is so hard when you are feeling this way to care for a small child! This too shall pass. I will remember you in my prayers.

Mother Mary please intercede for Trisha.

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
 
Dear Father, please bless Trisha and bring her strength to cope with the depression, bring her healing for her sake and the sake of her child. Two Our Fathers, Hail Marys, Glory Be and Fatima Prayers. Bless all those here battling with depression dear Father. In Christ’s name. Amen.
 
Dear Trisha, I am suffering too with you. A thought occured to me today about the agony in the Garden. IT had to have been the worst moment for Jesus to feel so alone when his dearest friends turned away, and the anticipation of what was to come. But on the cross we can unite our suffering with His. I know I don’t know how it works. And I’m so sick myself I don’t know why I’m even saying it, but its true. Blessings…
