you listed a lot of Negative things OP - what about positive things - your life can't be all that bad

anything interest you, sports, hobbies, charity?

find something to occupy your time, and surround yourself with positive people - I don't know exactly what your going through but im sure if you truly wan't things to change and be better it can happen, and with the Help of God and a good Attitude you can do a lot -

I too struggle with saying the Rosary, and images or bad thoughts come into my head, but it doesn't stop me from saying it daily

i immediately, without stopping in my head kindly ask Jesus to forgive me, and I try to repeat the Prayers im praying in my head while im saying them aloud, but with a few words delay,

so im also saying the prayers in my head and aloud but at different parts of the prayer, this usually keeps my mind busy if my mind is not properly meditating on the mystery's of the day - you are in my Prayers

I've lost complete interest and everything and I don't go anywhere or to anyone unless I completely have to, that's the point I've reached in my life. Thank you for your prayers to me. I have many things racing through my mind daily and they are slowly destroying me. The thoughts also include a doubt in the religion, and I've got to the point where I'm sick of it all and wish it can just go away but it wont

Now a days everyone is convinced that everything has to do with a mental disorder. We all want to admit that we're under possession so we don't blame ourselves for our actions, but in reality, there's always a fallen angel pulling the strings out of someone's heart and soul. I understand why you guys believe that it's just me, but it's not. Something is tormenting me, and I can't speak out to anyone because they will question my sanity and think of me as someone that is insane, when I reality Satan is behind all of this. Don't uderestimate him is all I can say. God is much more powerful that he will ever be, but Satan is clever, very clever.

Ok, forget the shrink. Did you read the rest of the thread?

-A good Confession
-Eliminate from your life and your room all the things that are not of God. Games, TV programs, magazines, books, images....anything that has any connection with "new age" or occultic themes.
-Talk to your Priest!
-Ask your parents to have the priest come to your house and bless every room, every corner of your house and your room. Even the front and back yards.
-Pray the Rosary not just individually on a daily basis but also as a family.

I never said that you were crazy. I am not crazy, I have depression. I suggest that you look up the symptoms to depression and anxiety and read them to see how well you match up to that. Getting help doesn't mean that you're crazy. Besides, what could it hurt?

AnonymousBoy · #52 Jul 19, '12, 12:52 pm

I really really need prayers.

Indeed, seeking help when one needs it takes strength and courage.

We, as a society, need to work to eliminate the stigma attatched to mental illness.

Good for you Arlanel, for taking responsibility for your life.

IF your post is genuine you may need prayers but what you "really really" need is to talk with a professional.

Heck, go to a priest- they'll just tell you the same thing. The problem isn't demons- get that out of you head.

WMichael · #55 Jul 19, '12, 1:45 pm

OK so you say its not to do with a mental problem but possibly demonic possession, If you're not willing to go to a doctor at-least speak to a local priest.

I will put you in my prayers, I would suggest that you let someone know about what your feeling. and last but not least, God is always with you either walking by your side or by carrying you.

God Bless.

Milliardo · #56 Jul 19, '12, 1:54 pm

I will pray for you, that the Lord might grant you His mercy and forgiveness as well as strength to face what you're going through. May the Lord have mercy on us who needs His mercy.

AnonymousBoy · #57 Jul 20, '12, 12:33 am

I scheduled an appointment with my local priest. I will talk to him soon about what's been happening.

Why would I fake all of this? Huh? Why would I want attention from random people on a drum that I don't even know? And how do you know I'd it's not a spirit cotributing to all of this tormenting I am going through? You're not me and you're not going through what I'm going. I know the fine line between insanity and being misunderstood.

Lately when I look in the mirror I don't see myself anymore, but some other side of me. I am going to be completely honest with these symptoms I have.

1. Because I think my dad is cheating on my mom (I found saved pictures of naked women on the computer and I then went on his history and saw him searching men seeking women on Craigslist) I cannot look at his face anymore or bare to talk to him. He doesn't know that I suspect something but I have so much rage inside against him.

2. I constantly feel as I am being watched when I'm alone.

3. I barely do the rosary, but when I do, I get blasphemous images in my head when I pray it, such as sexual things against religious items.

4. Often I hear inner voices in my head.

5. I feel as if in my home I hear voices and sounds.

6. I cannot talk to anyone about my depression nor do I want to.

7. Ive been going through excessive masturbation for a while now.

8. I go through mood swings that are not normal and happen very often. I can be happy this day and be sad the next.

9. When I'm mad I can't control myself and either curse really badly or go wild. I cannot control my anger.

10. When in church I often get distracted by the smallest things, causing me to not pay attention at all.

11. Often I find it hard to fall asleep.

12. I've gained a lot of pounds since the last month. My pants nor shirts (Medium size shirts) don't fit me anymore.

13. I have become really lazy lately.

14. I was that type of guy who could crack a joke and laugh with others and talk but for about a couple months now I've turned extremely quiet.

15. I went a week with straight nightmares. Every single day for a week.

16. I constantly have suicidal thoughts daily.

17. My concentration level had went down really badly.

Those are just some of my problems that I've been encountering with myself, but there's probably more. I don't know if it's a sin, but before I went online to see how tarot cards worked and also oijia boards and I kinda played around with the online version of it, but nothing happened. God forgive me that I did that.. Was it a sin that I did that? Please help me with this suffering. I am a catholic guy just looking for the peace of mind and comforting I've always wanted but never received. I don't know what to do from this point and I am still fighting the thoughts of suicidal thoughts. Please help me. Am I just going through teen depression or is something attacking me?

WMichael · #59 Jul 20, '12, 2:53 am

Its good that you've scheduled a appointment with your local priest.

But let me raise something up, How can you tell the difference between something that's in your head and a demonic presence. I'm not saying Satan isn't involved but have you had a similar experience before where it was proven to be demonic instead of something mental.

I can understand your not looking for attention or something like that but it doesn't cross out the probability of it being a mental illness.

Aussieman88 · #60 Jul 20, '12, 9:57 pm

I would advise seeking the help that is available as has been suggested. Dont let pride stop you. Also go to confession as often as possible. Cleanse your life of anything that causes you to sin. Including the thoughts in your head. In your prayers ask Jesus to let you pause and recognise the moment that you are making a decision that will lead to sin. Some of my sins used to just be automatic reactions to a particular situation.

Check out this website

http://www.catholicwarriors.com/page...re_prayers.htm

Don't just read these spiritual warfare prayers but pray them. There are some you won't need. Also read the bit about praying with authority. Its important to know. Especially pray the breakiing generational bondage, healing the family tree ones. That website sells books real cheap and They will change your life if you read them. The lord gave you a spirit of power so flex some of that muscle thats available to you through Jesus.
When we sin we allow demons access to us and we push ourselves further away from God. Those books will help you identify and close the doors that the demons are using to access and influence our lives. They will help you prepare and put on your spiritual armour which will let you drive evil out of your life.

Those books will help you be able to heal your emotional wounds, identify any unconfessed sins, purify yourself to the point that you can feel and I mean actually feel the holy spirit in your daily life.

This stuff works. Its all referenced to bible passages so you can know it's real.
Jesus is Lord

Justin.
