Emotionally stressed teen

I'm asking prayers for my daughter. She's under tremendous stress and it has been very hard to help her through this past year. We have to acknowledge that she will not be better for a long time and now that some of my business has ended the sadness of that has hit very hard.

Please just say a simple Divine Mercy- Jesus I trust in you! for her.

I absolutely will be praying, Mary!

I just read your 'introduce yourself' also. I'm a western MA girl too! (Born & raised there.)
Thanks for befriending me!!

I know and understand the pain of a teen. I will pray for your daughter and for your family that this passes soon. Our family passed through a time when my teen was depressed, but by the grace of God, it is all good for now. Stand by your daughter, pray for her, and this will pass. God will hear the prayers of a mother and He will count each teardrop that falls from your face. Our God is an awsome and compasionate God, TRUST HIM!

Thank you all! Yesterday was hard (didn't know enough about where she was while at Mass.) But it did turn out OK and today she was better again.

Good to meet you Laura.

Loved the pics Maureen!
