Default For my friend who is experiencing serious paranoia

Please pray for my dear friend who is experiencing serious paranoia. He is visibly uneasy and is convinced that everywhere he goes people are whispering bad things about him. He is not willing to seek professional help and I see him becoming more annd more disturbed. Please pray for healing for him and that he will be given the grace and strength to deal with this situation; that he won't be afraid or ashamed to seek help. It is very sad.

I have Schizo Affective Disorder and was just like your friend at one time.
I am praying that he seeks medical help for his painful condition.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, please bring into Thy Heart Maria's friend so he may be rid of his paranoia. Heal him and lead him to someone you have gifted with the ability to help him if that is what You wish. Hail Mary...

I have prayed for your friend. I just want to mention that in a way, it is perhaps wise he does not seek help at this time. Good help is good. Not good help can do SO much more damage when we are vulnerable. Sadly there are a lot of bad counscellors out there

Memorare (Prayer to Our Lady)
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 unto 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 your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen

Praying for your intentions….

Lord Jesus, You have said, "Learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart." With confidence in Your loving heart which offers rest to weary souls, we come to You in this time of special need. In Your unfailing love, read the prayer that is written on our hearts, and grant the grace that we ask of You, in accordance with Your holy will. In Your name we pray. Amen.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, and sought thy intercession, was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, I fly unto thee, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother, to thee I come, before thee I stand sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate! Despise not my petitions, but, in thy mercy, hear and answer me. Amen.

Dear Jesus,
I Pray that this person gets medical help as soon as possible. I pray that the problem is dealt with so so he does not do damage to his self or his reputation due to the paranoia. Bless his soul with strength and courage to seek the help he will need and bless his therapy that he will come out of this paranoia. In this I Pray in Jesus name. Amen.

Soul of Christ, Sanctify me; Body of Christ, save me;
Blood of Christ, inebriate me; Water from the side of Christ, wash me;
Passion of Christ, strengthen me; O good Jesus, Hear m;, within your wounds,
hide me; let me never be separated from you; from the evil one protect me; at the hour
of my my death call me; and bid me to come to you; that with your saints, I may praise you forever and ever. Amen.
