Please Pray For Me

I came home yesterday from a long stay at the mental hostpital for bipolar II, after being stuck in major depression for 11 days; crying 80 percent of every day. I didn't feel much better there even though they were changinging up my meds and working with me every day in a very structured atmosphere. I started abilify and began to feel a little bit better but I'm still suffering for parts of each day.
My plan is to add the structure back in my life that I once had. I am also going to do ECT (electric convulsive therapy) and I'm a bit apprehensive. 3 different doctors seem to think it will be best for me because meds can't seem to snap me out of this.
I am asking for prayers, I need all I can get.

I'm sending prayers, too, for you and for the doctors treating you. Try to focus on whatever positive thoughts you can, even if it's just for a second or two. Also, I think sometimes it helps to have a little "object" (a little angel statuette, token, photo, teddy bear, whatever!) to hold onto during those really dark times in our lives.

I hope this depression lifts really soon and that your medication/ECT turns everything around for you. :ghug3

Dear Lord, hear my prayer. Please take toomutch, and show her your inner peace. Comfort her in her pain and darkness, and bring her into your light. Surround her with your Love and kindness, and keep all negativity away from her at this difficult time in her life. Lift her sadness and sorrow, and replace it with joy and happiness. Show her the beautiful side of life and all of the goodness that is right in front of her, if she opens her eyes to it. Please hear my prayer. Amen
