Will you please pray for me?

Question

I suffer from depression, insecurity and feelings of inferiority. I have few friends and even my marriage is unfulfilling. I pray also, but could you too? Thanks.

I'm sorry to hear about those of you who also deal with depression. Your prayers and kind words have really helped me. I pray and believe God will bless you all.

Jimmy N -

I just prayed for you. IM me if you want anytime.

Answer 1

I was once suffering from depression, but then i went on holiday to LONDON, and I got all better, I moved, and I have never felt sad since. LONDON is the best place in the world.

Answer 2

Absolutely. And I'll pray that you find the help you need to get through your depression. The insecurity and feelings of inferiority are probably symptoms of your depression, but think about WHY you might be depressed -- is it because of your marriage, or do you think your marriage might be going sour as a result of your depression? It's hard to have friends when you're depressed. Most people can't handle hanging around someone that doesn't radiate a positive attitude, and of course you're not feeling that way right now and it's difficult to hide that. Plus, when you're depressed you don't really feel like being friendly with people. I know, I've been there! But all of this can change, and you can rise above all this. You pray already, that's a good thing, but do you think there are things God wants you to do and maybe you're missing the signs? Maybe you should talk to your doctor about this and see if they can recommend a good therapist? Maybe you even need to try an antidepressant. Either way, you deserve to be happy and you need to find someone to help you. Please do that for yourself, I promise you won't regret it. When you're feeling so miserable you really have nothing to lose. I'll continue to pray for you.

Answer 3

Yes I will pray for you! Just know that you r not the only one in this world who goes thru this. I use 2 think I was the only one. I have been struggling with depression for more than 11 years. I also have anxiety and panic attacks. Insecurity because of being overweight. I could go on. But I so want to live out my life happily. I take one day at a time. I try not to worry about tomorrow. It always helps to talk to someone who goes thru the same thing! You can email me if you'd like [e-mail]
God Bless you :)

Answer 4

Absolutely my friend. Don't feel alone. God is always with you. And there are other people out there (myself included) who have experienced the same things (except for the marriage part, my husband and I are happily married, but of course have had hard times). In addition to the prayer, I would recommend not being so hard on yourself. Take a rational look at what you're doing when you feel insecure or inferior, and try to evalute it objectively (hard, I know). Find things that you do well.
In terms of your marriage, I obviously don't know your situation, but try making more time for you and your spouse to spend together. Try to remember why the two of you got married. Share prayer and Bible study time together. Marriage isn't easy, but stay committed and things will improve.
I am, of course, praying for you.

Answer 5

yes i will pray for you, and you say that you also pry , will let me tell you a little something about depression, the word of god says ,,,, what so ever a man thinkth so is he,,, so what are you thinking on, are you thinking on how unfulfilled your marriage is ,and how much better you would like for things to be and there not... and as far as having only a few friends that's a good thing really, because people can go a life time and only find that the people in there life's are not the friends they thought they were , but again the word of god says ,, if you want friends show yourself to be friendly ,I'm not preaching to you just trying ti help, but think on good things sweetheart,and give to god the bad , because only he can change things , I'll praying for you, i know that some people will say that depression is a sickness, but please try for your own good, just thinking on good things, and when a bad thought trys to come in , throw it out and think on something good , it will work if you will try,

Answer 6

GOD is the answer friend! I too have suffered for years with Major Depressive Disorder...I listen to lots of christian radio and pray, pray, pray. I do believe that some folks need medication also; if you can't feel better on your own please don't hesitate to see your doctor.
Have you heard of Dr. Minirth? He's been helping people for years with depressive disorders. Look up his web site. And he has said that now they can 'see' on pet scans how depression and other disorders are affecting people's brains! So depression is real and deserves special attention as any other disease.
Trust God for the answer to attend to your particular depression. You are in my prayers!

Answer 7

Whenever you're sad or depressed, there is always someone that is out there thinking of u- we humans touch the lives of others in so many ways without even knowing it. Just by looking and smiling at someone can make them feel good, we then remember this moment and the person who smiled at us, for a very long time. So keep it in mind that you're never alone, you're always in someone else's thoughts...

i hope u feel much better, try going out and looking at the bright side of life, there is always a reason for u to be grateful...you have a life, thats all that matters..please dont waste it being depressed..after all u have this one life to live.

I will have u in my thoughts and Insha'Allah ( God willing ) i'll think of u in my prayers.

Answer 8

Hi! Have you been diagnosed with depression or are you just feeling rotten? It sounds like there is a lot of things going on here and you sound pretty low and desperate. Have you no one to talk to about this? Try your GP - they are now more open about helping with this type of problem.

What ever you do DO NOT DO ANYTHING SILLY - life may suck at the moment but it will get better. It is hard when you are down and everything seems to be against you but just look at the people that have answered your question - THEY CARE! I have one piece of advice - do whatever makes YOU happy!

Answer 9

Answer 10

Get used to being human.

No I won't waste my time praying for you and neither should you.

Your religion and God belief are at the base of your problems, get real and do what you can here and now, with or without help from others instead of hoping for divine intervention.

Look at history and the world around you, not much evidence of any god help.

He will and does fail everybody on a daily basis, but hey, if you're God it really isn't your problem.

Answer 11

not sure about praying to another world for happiness in this one.There is a good chance we only have one life and it sounds like urs isn't how you want it. You are a powerful human and you can make changes, maybe you could try n get of comp, join a group n hopefully make new friends, do anything you enjoy or remembered enjoying. And possibly review the marriage- wishing you all the best in your journey.
