Feeling very hopeless

[JohnD212]

I took medication a few times several months ago and immediately had side effects. They involve changes to my body that are uncomfortable and terrifying. I saw a doctor who wasn't particularly nice to me but now I await blood work to hopefully determine what is wrong. I have several other very difficult side effects that are ruining my life. I am at one of the darkest most lonely times in my life. A nervous breakdown is very near if I don't calm down. I pray so often to God even stopping in front of my local Catholic Church and breaking down in tears. I don't like to think God isn't listening but I don't understand why I am being asked to shoulder so much discomfort. 

Please pray for me as I am feeling lost in my own life and I am struggling to hold onto God and the teachings I've always relied on in difficult times.

Thank you

John,

Stay hopeful and prayerful...medications with bad side effects are terrifying. Find another doctor, see several, until you find one you connect with. Make sure s/he sees you as a person, not just patient #312. May God calm your body, mind, and spirit.

I've prayed for complete health and well-being, in the name of Jesus!

But [Jesus] was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed. Isaiah 53:5

Thank you val17 - I am trying my best to get out of bed each day. The world of doctors is very cold and often expensive but I am trying to find someone who will help me. I appreciate your words more than you can imagine.

You're very welcome, John. Trying to get good medical care while you're ill is difficult...keep pushing for the right person. I will continue to pray that God guides your steps and leads you to the right professional/s. 

As for the church you pass, why not stop in and ask to pray with the pastor/priest? You don't have to be a member to get some support. You may feel lost, but remember - God is always with you.

God bless.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
