I’ll be praying for you and your happiness. I don’t know if it would be any consolation for you to know that my situation is worse off. I can’t even talk about it. I’m just holding on to God’s mercy. I also hope you realize that even if the whole world rallies against us, if we have God, we already have everything.
 
Dear God

I pray for all who suffer from manic depression, and/or Suicidal thoughts, that they may come to understand they are most definatly not alone(I had problems with this in the past and sometimes today, but not as often anymore). Please help them to see the light of Christ within their lives in some large or small way! Please help them understand that they are Needed by someone, You! and even also perhaps help them realise they are loved by someone they may not even know cares about them.

Please allow them to understand and seek help, Not just from the Parish Priest(Confession will help too, not just talking to him for advice!) or Doctor, but help them find somesort of Councelling service(many within the catholic healthcare systems and even the State healthcare systems of the world) where there are people in simular situations(I go to this myself, it really helps!), and where they will come to realise someone indeed does love them, but “upstairs” and on the Level too.

A thousand times Amen!
 
“I think there can’t be a God because he’d be too cruel to let me have this much pain, and having done nothing to deserve it”

Oh sweetie…no no no. I don’t know the mind of God but He isn’t cruel. He let some of his greatest Saints suffer when they didn’t “deserve it”. His own son suffered, Mary suffered and while I don’t know a lot of Saint stories the few I have read are filled with illnesses and physical and mental trials. Clearly it does NOT mean God doesn’t care about you or that you are alone. He is there.

I will pray for you that you find the peace, grace and mercy of Our Lord. May this loneliness help you be even closer to Him.

My heart goes out to you and You will be on my prayer list - hang in there -
 
I will pray that God will shed his love upon you so you shall receive spiritual and emotional healing. God is with you now and always, he will never leave you. Pray to Jesus as if he is sitting right next to you. Trust in the Lord.
 
My prayers are with you, try and set up an appointment with your priest to help you through this trying time.
 
Thank you for your prayers… but I think God must’ve decided to put me in the back burner… things are just getting worse and all I want to do is just…ugh.
 
My prayers are still with you and will be until I hear differently. Have you spoken to your Priest?
 
I want to. But I’m so afraid. I can’t. I already lost so much, I hate the thought of also losing my family and priest’s respect. I don’t even thinbk I have the strength to talk to him. All I can do is just cry.
 
my dear friend you won’t lose your priest’s respect. They are here for us in times that we need them. When I first went to confession and asked for forgiveness for my suicidal actions… I can’t describe the joy that filled me when he granted me absolution. Please find a good psychiatrist to talk to or even see a good therapist. It helps so much. I wish I could show you how much it has helped. There is a way out of the darkness, it just takes time and a lot of work. I still have my bad days when the depression wins out in my mind but its not as strong as it once was. Please realize how strong you for continuing to stand. I wish you could see how loved you are by God and the rest of us on the board. Please know you are special.
 
I have suffered from anxiety and depression at times myself, so
I have an idea of how you are feeling. I know it is incredibly hard.
There are people here who care about you, and most important,
God loves you, you are his precious child. Please speak to your
priest. I will pray for you, please let us know how you are doing.
Although it doesn’t seem like it now, it will get better! God bless
you!

I turn to you, dear virgin and martyr, confident of your power with God and of your willingness to take my cause into your hands. I praise and bless the Lord for giving you to us as patron of the nervous and emotionally disturbed. I firmly hope that through your kind intercession He will restore my lost serenity and peace of mind. May He speak to my heart and reassure me: “My peace I give you. Let not your heart be troubled nor let it be afraid.”
Pray for me, dear St. Dymphna, that my nervous and emotional turmoil may cease, and that I may again know serenity and personal peace.
Amen.

Please do not lose faith and pay a visit to the blessed sacrament. God is there he will help you believe me he will. I am also alone with hardly no family and every time I feel that I am all alone in the world I go to him and after I have spend a while with him I feel so much better,
God loves you and he is our best friend

I’ll keep you in my prayers.

I hope and pray that you will grow very close to Jesus so that He is always in your thoughts and guiding allthings in your life. Jesus hear our prayers for peace and joy, and a life lived in gospel love and truth. Thank You Jesus

I’m always trying to find something to make me feel better, but nothing ever comes up in fact lately things are happeing where I run across her and see her talking to other guys. I’m severly depressed as well

You have now found a wonderful group of friends! God is in this place! We will pray with you when things are bad, and we will stay with you when things are great! God is so good to us, all we have to do is open our hearts and minds to him alone.

Please feel free to send me a private message if you need to talk to someone in private. And it would be a wonderful idea to go and see your priest.

My prayers are going up for you right now!

God Bless,
Pam
 
I was in the same shoes for a very long time, and I cried endlessly too. Late did I realize that my bigger problem was my soul. It took me a long time to realize because I was too convinced of my own goodness. I know you probably don’t have the same problem. But if you have, repent and turn back to God before it’s too late. Don’t forget to forgive those who have wronged you. Have mercy on their souls and God will have mercy on yours too. Always give thanks to God not just for the blessings you’ve received but also for letting you share in His sufferings. And for everything else as well - we don’t know how much Jesus tries to save us, to protect us, to help us every moment of our lives. I wish I could tell you how much I wish I had known about it much sooner than I did. I would have a lot more to offer to God then. Don’t let depression get to you. It may be the devil’s way of getting you preoccupied with a life you can’t hold on to and neglecting an eternity you can’t run away from. Offering you my love and prayers…
 
I ask God to let you, and each person on this thread who also speaks of their hurt and depression, how very precious and loved you really are to Him
