Am feeling very depressed and it's the middle of the summer when I should be feeling better as I have Seasonal Affective Depressive Disorder along with fibro/fatigue and who know what else. Thot it was due to stress as we have just moved AGAIN (have moved an average of every few yrs during my entire life)...plus
we had water damage to our home so the work seems endless and the energy very low...Just started on a new thyroid med, too, and when I was taking natural thyroid supplements in the past I started having panic attacks, so think that may be related, too. I just want to feel better and have the energy to do what God has called me to do! I want to reach out to others who are suffering from chronic illness, anxiety and depression and I also love to teach and help the elderly/lonely...but how can I help others when I can barely function?!? Feeling very frustrated. Thanx for you prayers.
Please pray that I will be reconciled to my son so that I can spend time with my precious grand daughter and soon to arrive grandson! I feel I am being unjustly shunned due to the cursed chronic illness which affects my emotional and mental health as well as my physical health (and spiritual, of course). He's a Christian church-goer but says "I have to learn my lesson" but won't tell me what lesson I'm supposed to learn! I already learned NOT to take any more stupid meds that the Dr's keep trying on me as I've had so many adverse reactions! The last one made me feel suicidal, which was terrifying. I don't want to hurt my family in anyway, nor do I have the guts to hurt myself, but he doesn't think it's safe to let me babysit anymore! Being a gramma is the greatest joy in my life and wonderful therapy for the chronic depression I've had since childhood. I can't bear being separated from my loved ones!
We plan to move next month and I have chronic fatigue syndrome with severe depression and mood swings, so please pray that I will have the strength to make it thru without any major problems! Also pray for quick healing of my hubby's leg. He broke it just under the knee last month, and they had to put in a plate and 10 screws! On the positive side, after we move I can get back into subst teaching and hubby won't have an hour commute to work each way!
We want to move out of this drafty old apt before winter, and need prayer that the financing will go thru, we will listen to God's voice and make wise decisions, and that I will have the strength to get thru. I have chronic illness and very little energy. Found a house I love with a southern exposure, in our price range! (2nd house I looked at!) Also please pray that 2 properties will sell so we can get our share of inheritance, and that relationships in the family will smooth out. It's been rough!
Have been battling depression all my life which has gotten almost debilitating last few yrs, along with chronic fatigue and weekly mood swings. Just finishing up 2 months of treatments. Feeling discouraged and dreading winter~just wana hibernate, but I know our Father still has work for me to do even with my limited energy.
Please pray for my troubled niece who has had her 3-yr old taken by Social Services. She sounded either on drugs or nearly nuts when I talked to her last week~We think the enemy may be fooling her into thinking she has special powers of discernment after a near-death experience, but have never seen evidence of real change/repentance in her life thus far...Thank you all so very much!
We have been having financial problems since my hubby went self-employed 2 yrs ago~no health benefits, and I have chronic illness, can't work. PRAISE that I recently found a Natural Nutrition consultant who is advising me online for a donation! So, I have hope for feeling better after 25 yrs of chronic fatigue, with the last month being the worst ever barring when I was in the hospital...I also suffer from severe depression and am dreading another winter...last yr was my worst ever...ALSO, please pray for our 4 sons, 2 of whom have strayed from the Lord and also have physical/mental/emotional problems. (1 married with a baby, is looking for a paying youth pastor job, 2 getting married next year! ) Eldest has Asperger's and is crippled by severe anxiety/depression. He desperately needs a job~he's extremely intelligent, but holes up on his computer and rarely goes out, doesn't drive and has no benefits, either. He's totally dependant on us, and we really can't afford to pay his expenses~not even keeping up on ours~Thru this the Lord is teaching me to totally lean on Him, go with the flow, and KNOW that He IS caring for us as He always has. We have food and shelter, a good church family and many blessings to be thankful for, so why do I worry and fret?!? God has never failed me yet!
I am battling extreme fatigue, complicated by insomnia, and depression.
We were sitting in the living room chatting with my hubby's friend from work when I suddenly said to him, "You need to get home! Your wife needs you!" I had no idea why I said that.
About 15 minutes later he called, frantic, saying, tell Dan our house is on fire!" He wanted me to pick up his wife at work and take her home as he was afraid she'd be too upset to drive.
When we got there the flames were roaring above the house, but all 6 children (who had been left alone for awhile) we safe! The house was practically under the water tower of the very small town, and the fire station was very close, so they were able to salvage much of their stuff which was mostly packed up for moving.
I was almost out of gas, but was able to roll into the 1st gas station outside of the town we lived in. Got home to realize I'd left my youngest son at home alone! (He was 8 or 10, and responsible...every one else wanted to go, but I thot it would be too upsetting for him.
I was able to hold it together 'til I got to the burning house and saw that all the children, ages about 3-12, were ok. Then I cried!
THANK YOU, dear Father for giving me this message!
