Hi everyone. I need some general prayers. First of all, my health is not doing very well at this time. I am healthier than I was a couple of weeks ago when I had bronchitis but I am still having some health issues. My fibromyalgia has been causing me more pain than usual lately. Also, I have been having pains in my chest when I move a certain way or breathe a certain way.

I quit smoking several days ago and I haven’t smoked at all since then. However, I am still having temptations to smoke. I am using a nicotine patch which helps but I could still use some prayers for assistance in quitting.

My mental health has also not been the greatest lately. I have been paranoid a couple of times and I have just been getting stressed out more easily. I see my doctor who takes care of my mental problems on Monday. One of the fears I have is that I have some kind of cancer. I have this fear because I smoked regularly for 10 years. I started smoking at 13 but it was something that happened less than once a month. So basically I am somewhat afraid that I may have undiagnosed cancer. I’ve also been irritated lately because I am getting tired of election season.

Also, I administrate a coupe of pages on Facebook and have lately been getting some trolls on the page which I have had to ban because they were only there to cause problems.

I am also struggling with scrupulosity quite a bit and I think that is everything I need prayers with. It has been a little difficult to pray lately as well but I do keep praying because I know I would be much worse off were it not for God’s help.

Anyway, I thank you if you choose to pray for me. I feel like I am being selfish by asking for prayers but I feel like if I don’t ask for prayers, I am not going to be able to handle things as well as I would with them.
 
Lord, lay your healing hands down on Holly and give her what she needs. Keep her healthy, happy and safe. Amen.

Everyone is in need of prayers weather they ask or not.
 
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 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.

I am truly sorry for all that you’re going through. As I have a mental disorder, I can sympathize with your mental issues. It can be overwhelming at times, physically, mentally and spiritually, and can even affect your relationships with your loved ones. My advice would be that if you ever have an inordinate fear of some physical problem, as with your fear that you have undiagnosed cancer, do everything you can to rationally and practically answer your fear. Dwelling on it and worrying about it only makes it worse and can hurt you in many different ways, especially through stress. Talk to your doctor about your worries and maybe he can give you a diagnosis. It is better to know than to live in fear. And, it is never selfish to ask for help; in fact, it is a sign of love for those in whom we place our hope. 🙂 Finally, I would say to always remember that no matter what we’re going through, no matter how hard or dark our lives are, God is always there, perfect, beautiful, loving, just waiting on us to fully trust Him. When we see that He is at the helm, that nothing happens outside of His Divine Plan, we have nothing to fear, as only God truly has power over us. So, pray unceasingly, keeping love always in your heart and your eyes always set on Heaven. 🙂

I pray for the healing of all your medical problems, particularly that you may be protected from all forms of cancer or terminal illness; for the forgiveness of all your sins and your protection from all sin and all evils. I also extend these prayers to everyone in the world with cancer, terminal illness, trying to overcome an addiction, or dealing with mental issues. I ask for the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, your guardian angel, and St. Dymphna, patron saint against mental illness. God bless. 🙂

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 everyone so very much for your prayers. I am slightly depressed today and I have also been having a lot of pain but overall I think I am doing better. My feet and legs are bothering me the most today. I think the reason why I am in pain is because I have slightly overworked myself in the past several days or even week or so and so now I am feeling the effects of it. Another reason for my pain is my weight. I am morbidly obese (sad to say) and I know that puts a lot of pressure on my joints, bones, muscles, etc. I would love to lose weight but I fear exercise because I am afraid it will cause me a lot more pain. I am going to discuss this issue with my doctor and consider physical therapy. I also know that one of the main reasons for my pain is that I have Fibromyalgia and a few other conditions which cause chronic pain.

I went to Mass yesterday evening here in my home town. I was happy to be able to go to my home parish again. I had been going out of town for a while and one week I was sick and stayed home.

As far as smoking goes, I have still resisted the temptation to smoke and haven’t smoked at all. I have a lot of friends who smoke and sometimes the temptation to smoke is very strong. I had two such strong temptations earlier but I was thankfully able to resist the temptation although I almost gave in.

So anyway, I would appreciate your continued prayers and I definitely appreciate the prayers that you have already given me. Thank you very much.

Thanks again everyone for your prayers. Earlier tonight I took a nap and woke up very stiff. I also seem to have injured my left knee again as I cannot walk very easily. My depression is still not going away. I have also been experiencing some spiritual aridity. I am still not smoking any but believe me, its difficult. I greatly appreciate the prayers everyone has offered and will also appreciate any future prayers for me.
 
Our Father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive them that trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil. Amen

Thank you for your prayers.

**I have an update

**I have really been struggling today with anxiety about the election. I fear that if Obama is not voted out, our religious freedom will truly be in jeopardy and so that has me very worried. I’ve also been having quite a lot of pain lately. Unfortunately its a vicious cycle. I worry or get stressed out and then my pain levels flare up again.
