I’m new to this site, but I find myself at my wits end with my 29 year old daughter. She has adult ADD and so many other problems. I find myself not wanting anything to do with her because I am so tired of all the excuses and choices that keep her from taking her place with the real world. I ask a special prayer for her that God has a miracle saved for her to wake up and take her place in the world, before I loose what little marbles I have left. Thank 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.

You know that ADD in most cases comes with co-morbidity? That’s the nature of the beast. Tag-alongs include anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and so on. ADD and ADHD are major hurdles, impediments to a fulfilling life. Self-esteem is near impossible to keep afloat, etc. I have it myself and I consider it a cancer of the soul, nothing less. Of course it helps tremendously if she’s getting the right medication in the right dosage and that she’s seeing a therapist/counsellor/psychologist. Perhaps there’s a career path that your daughter hasn’t considered and that she’d find rewarding and fulfilling. Finding a job that you’re good at and that you enjoy goes a long way. I assume either you or the father of your daughter has ADD/ADHD, how well were you/was he able to overcome this hurdle in life’s path? My mom did pray a novena 6-7 years ago which, I believe, led me to the job I have right now. Having major anxiety and being an introvert, it was very rough at times being constantly surrounded by people for hours, but it was a God-send given my limitations. If it weren’t for this job, I’d be working a crummy job near minimum wage with no coverage whatsoever. The individual lots we get in life can be as different as night and day from one person to the next. I have never accepted the hand I was given at birth, I try my best to change my life for the better, but sometimes it feels like I’m constantly swimming against the current, I know where I’d want to be, but it seems impossible to get there. That takes a huge toll ove time. My own son has ADHD and I can’t begin to tell you how devastated I am sometimes that God hasn’t spared him something which has led me to very dark and lonely places. I would have loved it for God to stop my cursed lineage at me.
 
I commend you and your daughter to the Blessed Virgin Mary. May Mother Mary help her to pray, to work, and to play in accordance with Our Lord’s holy will. I pray that you can find a way to influence your daughter to pray the rosary and live according to her state in life.

Hail Mary…

Amen.
 
Robert:

I cannot tell you how grateful I am to have read your post. I really needed to see what you wrote. Thank you again for your (name removed by moderator)ut from the standpoint of one who suffers as well.
 
I join you in prayer that God Bless your family and your daughter.

I recommend that you do the novena prayer of the sacred heart of Jesus. There is a promise of peace if you do.

Our Father
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
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.
 
Praying hard to St Dymphna for your daughter, Robert and his son.

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
 
Thank you so much for all the love and prayers. Praise God for his people
 
Lord, You invite all who are burdened to come to you. Allow Your healing Hand to heal this woman. Touch her soul with Your compassion for others; touch her heart with Your courage and infinite Love for all; touch her mind with Your Wisdom, and may her mouth always proclaim Your praise. Teach her to reach out to You in all her needs, and help her to lead others to You by her example.
Most loving Heart of Jesus, bring her health in body and spirit that she may serve You with all her strength. Touch gently this life which you have created, now and forever.
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

Your not alone, many mothers are in the same boat. I’m with ya. My daughter is a little younger, but I can relate. I feel your pain. It’s so hard. I will pray for you both, and for all mothers and daughters suffering through difficult times.

Best to go to Our Holy Mother for her intercession:

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.
