Hi everyone,

Lately I have been feeling significantly depressed, and don’t know why. I have a therapist and psychiatrist, whom I will be meeting with soon, but I wanted to ask that you pray that I am able to talk to the right person, help understand why I am feeling this way, and find the help or solution I need to get out of this severe state of depression. Right now, I am doing decently, but over the past week or so there have been times where I have felt so depressed to the point of despair, like this will never get better, and that I have nothing good to look forward to. Please pray for me, for my therapist, psychiatrist, family, friends, and all whom I know that I can find some joy and be able to be a source of joy to others and not a source of sorrow. Thank you for all prayers.

May God bless you all. Amen.

Assuming that it is not a medical problem. consider making an appointment to speak with a priest. They counsel people with these issues all the time. Ask to be anointed. (Sacrament of the Sick).
Also,
Ask Padre Pio to intercede for you. He dealt with so much in his life…he will help you if you ask to be a Spiritual child of his…
God bless you. We’ll pray for you.
 
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.
 
Depression is a battle. I pray you get relief soon.

St. Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.

As I went to turn the light onso I could respond, a holy card for John Paul II that I keep on my side table, turned over and the words, ‘Be Not Afraid‘ stood out as a message to send to you,
I opened my bible and it opened straight to Acts 19:9-10
"One night in a vision, the Lord said to Paul, “Do not be afraid. Go on speaking, and do not be silenced, for I am with you. No one will attack you or harm you. There are many of my people in this city.”

May the Peace of the Lord be with you. Amen.

St. Michael the Archangel,

Our Father, Who art in heaven,
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 trespassed 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 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.

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.
 
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee.
 
Even though you don’t know me. Just know I know what you’re feeling and going through right now so I can say it with full sincerity, I understand. I’ve been going through the same thing for a long time now and at times I too feel despair and hopeless but just don’t give up, hold onto your faith and pray to God to help you persevere through it all. Surround yourself with people you can trust, people that love you and you can open up to about how you feel. If it be your Dr, family, friend or a Priest. What helped me a lot is trying to go to mass as much as you can. I try to go everyday now and adoration and spending time in the silence in front of the Blessed Sacrament as given me so much peace regardless what’s going on in life. As Pope Francis said “Jesus makes the darkness brighter.” Hold onto his light and let it guide you closer to him even through suffering. You can also offer up your suffering and unite it with Jesus’s suffering on the cross to help the salvation of souls, souls in purgatory that maybe have no one to pray for them. Our suffering can be redemptive and fruitful.

I will be praying for you.

Lord God, please be your child. Hold them close during this time when they need you the most. You are our light in the darkness oh Lord. Shine your radiant light onto your child and let it penetrate their heart and soul as a warm blanket wrapped around them. Let them seek refuge in you Oh Lord. Put the right people in their life oh Lord to help them through this time. I pray for their family, friends, healthcare professionals and people within their church to help them in any way to help them find the care and solution to help them find joy in their life once again.

Lord God, if there are any harmful or bad spirits especially the spirit of depression that is attached to their mind, memory, will, intellect and imagination bind them up and command them to directly go to the foot of your cross to do what you will. Fill these empty spaces in their soul with your Holy Spirit filled with joy and gladness.

Oh most holy Blessed Mother, St. Michael, St. Raphael and all the angel and saints. St. Therese of Lisieux, St. Dymphna, St. Joseph, St. Catherine of Siena please pray for them.

In Jesus name,

Amen

This song was playing as I was praying for you. The words “Just hold on” kept coming up. youtube.com/watch?v=CqfCRV9NiWg For me, I’ve learned God speaks us to me in so many ways, through words in our heart, through nature, through music, through the bible, through other people. He’s so amazing!
 
praying for you…
praying that you will seek all avenues of help…

God Bless

Praying for your health & well being.
 
I suggest scheduling private appointments with a trusted priest. The spiritual component of depression is often overlooked. After all, it is Christ who is Hope.

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.

May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do thou,

thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen
 
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.

Dear Lord, you are our refuge in good and in bad times. In your infinite mercy, bring peace and comfort to those of us who face days sometimes filled with pain and depression. Help us to realize that through you there is joy and the promise of lasting peace. Help us through the rough times. Walk before and beside us so that we may walk in your footsteps and reach out to you in our journey on this earth. Help us to focus on our blessings rather than our misfortunes, dear Lord. Thank you for hearing and answering our prayers. Amen
