Prayer for Healing of Depression

Prayer to Saint Dymphna for healing of depression.

In a world full of sorrows, pain, disappointments and the likes, it is hard to stay sane. A lot of us have been plunged into several mental illnesses like depression, anxiety, nervous disorders and other psychological disorders; a lot of us are struggling to keep our minds in control amidst the tides of anxiety.

When passing through such a phase, we should not hesitate to call upon Saint Dymphna who heals those with mental illnesses. Her father was a pagan Irish king who wanted to marry her after the demise of her mother (his wife) but she refused that and he had her killed. Later on, five lunatics were miraculously healed of their mental disorders after sleeping at the spot where she was killed and ever since then, a lot of mentally ill people have been healed through her. Say this prayer today and rest, assured that she will intercede for you:

“Saint Dymphna
Lord, our God, you graciously chose St. Dymphna as patroness of those afflicted with mental and nervous disorders. She is thus an inspiration and a symbol of charity to the thousands who ask her intercession.
Please grant, Lord, through the prayers of this pure youthful martyr, relief and consolation to all suffering such trials, and especially those for whom we pray.

(Mention those for whom you wish to pray).

We beg you, Lord, to hear the prayers of St. Dymphna on our behalf. Grant all those for whom we pray patience in their sufferings and resignation to your divine will. Please fill them with hope, and grant them the relief and cure they so much desire.
We ask this through Christ our Lord who suffered agony in the garden. Amen”
