Please pray for me, my depression is brutal.
Thank you and God bless you.
 
Gracious and merciful Father, please come to their assistance.

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 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.

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.
 
A short, but powerful prayer:

Holy Mary, Mother of God
Spread the effect of grace of thy Flame of Love over all humanity,
now and at the hour of our death
Amen

Jesus, I trust in You.
 
O Christ Jesus,
when all is darkness
and we feel our weakness and helplessness,
give us the sense of Your presence,
Your love, and Your strength.
Help us to have perfect trust
in Your protecting love
and strengthening power,
so that nothing may frighten or worry us,
for, living close to You,
we shall see Your hand,
Your purpose, Your will through all things.

Amen

I will keep you in my prayers.
 
Please pray for me, my depression is brutal.
You do not walk in the valley of the shadow of death alone. God walks with you.
Just as he has (and will) walk with me when I’m there. I have suffered from BiPolar and Depression for over 40 years, but it was only about 10 years ago that I was correctly diagnosed. Since then, God has allowed me to make substantial progress in this battle and I pray that you will as well. Remember that God has an infinite way of healing and dealing with these things.

May God bless you in this fight and may whatever purpose he has in this for you be realized.

***O Christ Jesus,

Prayer for a Miracle

God of all creation, you who spoke a simple command and brought forth light from
the darkness, I ask you now to send forth your miracle-working power to heal travelann13’s Mother. You cleansed the lepers, opened the eyes of the blind and by
speaking a simple command, you empowered the crippled to rise up and walk.
You sent forth your life-giving power to all those in need, including those you raised from
the dead. I ask you to send forth your healing power into travelann13’s Mother’s body and give him the strength to fight his illness. I ask this through my Lord, Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen

Prayer to Our Lady of Mental Peace

O Lady of Mental Peace,
Mother of Tranquility
and Mother of Hope,
look upon travelann13 in this time
of weakness and unrest.

Teach her searching heart
to know that God’s Love
for her is unchanging and
unchangeable, and, that
true human love can only
begin and grow by touching
His Love.

Let your gentle Peace -
which this world cannot give
  • be always with her.
    And, help her to bring this
    same Peace into the lives
    of others.
Our Lady of Mental Peace,
  • Pray for us!
    Amen.
Jesus, Help Me!

In every need let me come to You with humble trust,
saying:
Jesus, help me!
In all my doubts, perplexities, and temptations:
Jesus, help me!
In hours of loneliness, weariness and trials:
Jesus, help me!
In the failure of my plans and hopes, in disappointments,
troubles and sorrows:
Jesus, help me!
When others fail me, and Your Grace alone can assist me:
Jesus, help me!
When I throw myself on Your tender Love as Savior:
Jesus, help me!
When my heart is cast down by failure, at seeing no good
come from my efforts:
Jesus, help me!
When I feel impatient, and my cross irritates me:
Jesus, help me!
When I am ill, and my head and hands cannot work and
I am lonely:
Jesus, help me!

Always, always, in spite of weakness, falls and short-
comings of every kind:
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, help me and never forsake me!

Amen

You are not alone. May God ease your suffering, and bless you with the healing grace we all need.
 
Father,

I lift up to you this hurting woman who is suffering from depression.

Lord,

Your love is everlasting.

Your steadfast attention is daily directed toward this woman you love. Your compassion is changing things in her life as prayer is being lifted up to you.

Your Word promises us that we are safe in your hand. By faith we know that you are protecting us.

Teach her, Lord, how to receive your good gifts.

Remind her to open her Bible. Direct her toward the passages in your Word that will encourage and motivate her.

Give her strength to press through this difficult time and come to rest beside the still waters of your peaceful presence.

Lord, teach this woman how to pick up the shield of faith to defend herself against the fiery darts of hopelessness and depression.

Thank you, Father, that you are moving on her behalf. Thank you that you are giving her revelations that will lift her out of the reach of depression. Thank you, that you are bringing her hope and encouragement.

In Jesus’ Name we pray,

Amen
 
Dear Friends in Christ,
Thank you so much for the outpouring of love with the beautiful heartfelt prayers you shared. I feel lighter with the reading and praying. Wow! God is so good. Again, thank you.

Praying that you will feel better. I know what a struggle it is. God bless you!
 
Praying that the Lord may continue to strengthen you and grant you relief from depression.

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 death. Amen
 
Try to laugh. Go on youtube and watch anything that makes you laugh. Laugh as much as you can.
Light. Do not linger in dark rooms. Sunlight can do wonders.
Eat fruit daily.
Try to pray the rosary. I know it seems impossible. But do a rack at a time. Power through the distractions and lack of inspiration.
I know it sounds corny and trite at this time. But after you pass through it, youll look back and actually thank God for it.
Pills usually make things worse. But I’m not a “doctor”.
Been there, done that. It will pass.

Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do Thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host,
by the Power of God,
thrust down to hell satan and all the wicked spirits,
who wander through the world for the ruin of souls.

Remember, O most loving Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession and was left forsaken. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come, before you I stand, a sorrowful sinner. Despise not my words, O Mother of the Word, but in your mercy, hear and answer me.
Amen
