So I have not made a prayer thread for myself in ages. It is not that things have been going well, it is just things have been going so poorly that I have lost a lot of faith in prayer. That and the story is so long and complicated that I never felt like writing it all out. But, now I am extremely worried about my health. Basically, fall quarter at university, I was severely depressed for a few weeks and fell so far behind that I had to makeup work for three classes and drop another. It was from a combination of things, like a struggle with a friend I have, abuse from my mom, and having to decide whether I wanted to do pharmacy or medicine. I made up two of the three sets of coursework that I had to, but, that put me so far behind at the beginning of winter quarter that I am struggling with my current classes.

I started winter quarter with my first relationship. I met a great guy here on CAF and we dated for a month and a half during which our relationship experienced a lot of pains because we were both back in school. He dumped me last week and that was a few days after my mom called me and told me that I was born with something wrong with me, I always had something wrong with me mentally, and she insists that I have no friends and that all my setbacks are because people sense something is wrong with me and that makes it run away. She also keeps insisting I have Aspbergers’ despite everybody who has ever evaluated me saying that I am not on the spectrum. I knew she was trying to gaslight me and hung up, but it still hurts.

Now, those of you who have seen some of my earlier threads know that my mom is an emotionally abusive tool. Well, after this latest episode, I emailed my academic advisor about emergency housing options in case I cannot stay at home during school breaks. My dad says that he will make sure she doesn’t bother me during Spring Break. But, he had so many opportunities to do something about her over my lifetime that I think he must be willfully blind. I told him if he cannot control her during Spring Break, I’m going back to campus.

Now, I am occassionally getting strange symptoms that look like angina side effects. I noticed them first after taking a small dose of Adderall as a study drug (I know its wrong, but I was desperate). I used it in the past and it had no effect on me, but, now the symptoms are intense. I haven’t used it in a week because the symptoms were too scary, but I suddenly got the same thing as I was studying today. I workout a lot, I cannot believe that I might be having heart problems at this age. I’m going to contact the student health center tomorrow. I just hope I nothing happens until then.
 
I start a new novena tomorrow. I’ll include you and all of your intentions.

O St. Joseph whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before the Throne of God, I place in you all of @redbetta 's interests and desires. O St. Joseph do assist her by your powerful intercession and obtain for her from your Divine Son all spiritual blessings through Jesus Christ, Our Lord; so that having engaged here below your Heavenly power she may offer her Thanksgiving and Homage to the most Loving of Fathers. O St. Joseph, I never weary contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms. Press him in redbetta’s name and kiss His fine head for her, and ask Him to return the Kiss when she draws her final breath. St. Joseph, pray for us. Amen.

May the dear Lord bless and keep you!

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 to 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 Thy mercy hear and answer me, Amen.
 
So, I took an EKG and it showed I have bradycardia. The doctor says it does not look urgent, but I should see a cardiologist. I’m really worried now that the Adderall damaged my heart.
 
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 pray that you don’t get overwhelmed with your courses and that the Lord blesses you with a healthy body and that He makes your mom behave. Amen.
 
Saint 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 you, O’ Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God thrust into Hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world for the ruin of souls.

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.

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.

Prayer to Our Lady of Mental Peace

O Lady of Mental Peace,
Mother of Tranquility
and Mother of Hope,
look upon Redbetta 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

I love all the prayers that everyone has offered I would also suggest that you get away-far away from home and your mother and take time off from school for a while. You can pick up your education when you settle down. I even think that a year in the Peace Corps or working with some Catholic Charity would be helpful.
Stress: It can cause for health problems or life failures than you can ever imagine. There is something wrong with you? Most of have our little frailties of some type or another. Let your ‘wrongness’ work for you, not against you. You will never be perfect as no one is perfect other God. Build upon it and become ‘Who You are,’ not who others think you should be. In reading some of your past posts I believe your Mom is most of your problems which I urge you to move or get away from it all in a positive manner. Peace and prayers.
 
I cannot take time off from school. I want to go to pharmacy school right after college so that I can graduate as soon as I can. At earliest, I can become a pharmacist at age 26. I want to be able to find a man soon enough so that can have the large family that I want without being pregnant consecutively. Believe me, I love taking my time, but my biological clock is ticking.
 
So, its finals week and my symtoms have returned. Last night, I almost had to call the nurse on duty at campus because my heart pain was keeping me up. I think I will need to take at least one more incomplete. I am afraid of being put on academic probation for this. But, I absolutely have to be allowed take it easy because the symptoms go away with rest and sleep.

I’m scared.
 
O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from the Heart of Jesus as a fountain of Mercy for us, I trust in You!

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 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.

Eternal Father, I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

Inspired by this confidence, I fly to you, O Virgin of virgins , my Mother.
