Depression, despair, despondency are conditions that are not just a bad mood that will pass in a few hours, but a much worse health disorder. Sometimes prolonged depression is put on a par with complex diseases, which are treated by professional doctors.

It is worth noting that in Orthodoxy such mental states were equated with mortal sins. However, during their lifetime, some saints also suffered from such complex mental disorders. Therefore, prayers for despondency and depression have come down to our time, which help a believer overcome this difficulty in his life.

Who should you pray to in case of depression and despair?

Today, there are a sufficient number of different prayers that can help a believer get rid of such an unpleasant moral state. The first step is to choose a sacred text that will have a beneficial effect on the person asking for help from the saints.

It is worth noting that every Orthodox Christian can independently distinguish which prayer is from depression and despair, and which is from melancholy and despondency. To do this, you just need to read the prayer service; from its text it becomes clear, and the believer himself must feel that this sacred text is intended specifically for his condition.

Moreover, you should choose a saint who will hear your request, understand it and, by necessity, be able to fulfill it. This is not so easy to do; you need to think about your situation and find the miracle worker whose story fits the specific situation.

It is also worth considering what type of people this or that strong prayer for depression is suitable for. That is, a person can be in a state of oppression for various reasons; there are prayers of this kind for people:

• who are sad and depressed because they are in prison and lack spiritual strength;
• sometimes despondency occurs due to a person’s separation from people close to him;
• in some cases, a believer cannot cope with depression due to constant failures in various endeavors.

Saints helping Christians from laziness, despondency, despair, depression

Depending on the specific conditions, every believer must choose a miracle worker who can hear his requests and help in difficult times. Every Orthodox Christian can ask for help from the following saints:

• Mother of God.
• Matrona of Moscow.
• John of Kronstadt.
• Nikolai Ugodnik.
• Saint Tikhon.
• Martyr Tryphon.
• Reverend Ephraim.

It is worth noting that prayers in churches in front of the icons of all these saints worked incredible miracles. It has been repeatedly noted that people who asked them for help actually received it. Sometimes situations were seemingly hopeless, but suddenly a way out appeared precisely after reading a prayer for depression. To decide on the choice of a miracle worker, you should briefly know the history of each of them.

mother of God

The Mother of God has a special meaning among Orthodox Christians. An incredible number of different icons were painted with her image, some of which are miraculous. It is believed that a person who asks the Mother of God for help will definitely receive it, she hears everyone and never refuses help, but only when it is really needed.

As for this situation, it would be correct for a Christian to read the sacred text in front of the “Unexpected Joy” icon. In the case of reading a sincere prayer in front of this icon, a person returns to his normal existence, he acquires inner spiritual strength and mental balance. The Orthodox gets rid of the depressive state and continues a normal life.

Matrona of Moscow

She is also considered one of the strongest saints who helps everyone in need. Matrona was born completely blind, and she has never seen this world. But almost from childhood she had the gift of foresight and healing. Matrona devoted her entire earthly life to helping other people, she did not refuse anyone and did everything in her power.

You can pray in front of the icon of the Matrona of Moscow directly at home or in church. If possible, it is highly recommended to come to the relics of Matrona. Hundreds of Orthodox Christians come to this place every day and ask her for help to this day. But, if this is not possible, then you can read a prayer for despondency, depression, melancholy and despair at home in front of the icon.

John of Kronstadt

John was born in the Far North of Russia into the family of a poor rural worker. From an early age, the future saint was able to experience all the harsh conditions of life. Living in a poor family, the young man fully learned what a life full of poverty, tears and despair is. Such living conditions made John a rather withdrawn person, but at the same time he had a compassionate love for the poor.

Due to the lack of material wealth, he did not play toys and other children's games that were available to his peers. However, he never carried God in his heart. John loved nature; it gave him spiritual strength and inner balance.

His poverty, and he began to learn to read and write. After some time, John enters the academy and a little later becomes a priest. Throughout the rest of his life, he helped all the people who asked him for help, he did everything in his power.

That is why a powerful prayer for depression to this saint helps people who have lost vital energy due to financial failures.

Nikolai Ugodnik

Even from infancy, Nikolai was a very religious person; he observed fasting from childhood. At the age of 10, he began to study the Divine Scripture, he could spend whole days in the temple without leaving it, there he prayed all the time.

At a very young age he became a priest, and for some time the fame of the young but very wise priest spread throughout the country. A large number of Orthodox Christians came to the church where Nicholas served and asked for his blessing. He spoke rather long and competent speeches, which were more suitable not for a young man, but for a wise old man. He read a very large number of books - both religious and scientific, and therefore differed from a large number of people in his incredible education.

Then throughout his life he helped various people. He gave instructions in difficult moments, and when necessary, he helped them financially. There is a well-known story when one man was ready to send his daughters to a brothel because of terrible financial problems. When Nikolai found out about this, he threw money at them, thereby saving the girls from a bitter fate. The saint also helped people who were illegally convicted and performed many different good deeds.

Therefore, every Orthodox Christian, when reading a prayer for melancholy and depression, can do this before. It is worth noting that the sacred text is best read in church, in peace and quiet.

Saint Tikhon

A very powerful prayer for despair and depression is read to Saint Tikhon, who delivers those in need from such mental illness. A distinctive feature of such prayer is its privacy. It is necessary to read the sacred text at home in front of the icon, and it is advisable to ask for help in complete silence.

How to pray correctly?

After you have chosen which saint to read a prayer for depression, you need to know how to pronounce it correctly so that your requests are heard. Ideally, it is necessary to visit the relics of a saint and ask for help directly at the burial site. But, unfortunately, not every person has such an opportunity.

However, almost every person can visit the temple; for this it is necessary to pray directly in front of the icon of the saint and ask him to give spiritual strength that will help overcome this moral illness. Before reading a prayer for depression, you should light a candle and only then begin to communicate with the saints.

At home, prayer will also be heard; the main thing is to light a candle in front of the icon, put a glass of holy water and read the prayer. You need to read with understanding and with pure intentions, and upon completion you need to drink a sip of holy water and cross yourself.

Another important factor is sincerity. When a Christian demands help and tells him indicatively what he needs, then in this case there is no need to expect a miracle. It is extremely important to read the sacred test sincerely, with a pure soul and heart. Also, you should not hope that after the first reading a miracle will happen immediately. The Lord knows better than us when and at what time a person really needs help.

What to do if prayer doesn't help?

Do not despair when you have been reading a prayer for depression for a long time, and your moral state does not improve. First of all, you need to think about how you read the prayer, whether it really flows from your lips sincerely or whether there are notes of demand in the text.

It is also worth remembering what your lifestyle was like before you started asking the Saints. Moreover, if a person has never read daily prayers or visited temples, one should not hope that a miracle will happen the first time. You need to thank the Lord every day for everything he gives, and then a person, even without knowing it, will receive more vital energy.

Conclusion

When a person is in prolonged depression and professional psychologists cannot help in this situation, a significant part of the population resorts to prayer. It is worth noting that such a remedy is quite effective, because there are quite a large number of examples of physical and moral healing only from the fact that a Christian has become a truly religious person who has begun to carry God in his heart.

Give thanks to the Lord for everything you have, and periodically, when you really need it, ask for help.

PRAYER HEALING FROM SERIOUS DISEASES, PAIN.

This is a very powerful bioenergy technique - PRAYER.

For your practices, set aside a special place, a room where no one will disturb you for at least 30-40 minutes. Arrange this place to your liking - decorate with flowers, candles, stones, icons...

Your practice is the creation of your internal images. This is your conversation with the Creator of our Universe. This is your sincere appeal to him. Feel all the mystery of this practice, all the sacredness of this ritual of yours.

You can light candles and play quiet, pleasant music. It is not necessary to turn to the icon. Remember the Lord is in your heart! But if you want, turn to the icon that is closest to you, dear, joyful to your heart...

This sacrament - turning to God can be performed by anyone, regardless of their religious beliefs.

This prayer helps to heal from serious diseases (cardiovascular diseases, endocrine diseases, diseases of the nervous system, stomach, liver, musculoskeletal system), reduce temperature, relieve pain.

Diseases and other troubles do not fall on a person just like that. Man is a cosmic being and develops according to the laws of not only the material, but also the spiritual world. If these laws are violated, illness or some tragic circumstances arise that pose a threat to life.

It is enough to eliminate these violations, and everything in your life will return to normal. This is exactly what internal confession helps to do.

Confession consists of two parts.

Part one: you must remember all the times when someone seriously offended or insulted you. After all, resentment is a source of continuous supply of negative mental energy. Calmly remember your past life from the age of 12 (it is from this age that a person begins to bear karmic responsibility for his actions). The offender (even if this person has died) must be imagined mentally, and then hugged and kissed tightly!

Sometimes the resentment reaches such strength that it is impossible to hug and kiss, even mentally. In such cases, the “enemy” can be imagined as an unintelligent child of 2-3 years old. But it is necessary to hug and kiss - this is an indispensable condition of the Rescue Mechanism!

Send gratitude from your heart to this person.

Thank the Creator for sending you this traumatic situation for your learning.

Feel the warmth in your heart.

The second part: not only do you have enemies, someone, perhaps, considers you their enemy. It is possible that you yourself were a violator of moral truths. In this case, imagine that you are in court, and the judge is your own heart. Kneel before him and tell him all your bad deeds, mistakes, vices since the age of 12. Say everything you remember, making sure that you will never do it again. After all, by repenting, you remove all the negativity that has accumulated over the years. If the internal confession was carried out correctly and sincerely, then recovery and deliverance from troubles will occur in one hundred cases out of a hundred, regardless of the severity of the illness or the scale of the misfortune that has befallen you. It's only a matter of time. After internal confession, try not to repeat previous mistakes - otherwise misfortune will return in double volume.

You won’t be able to work through all the incidents in your life at once. Do it gradually. Remember and heal at least one incident a day.

Hallowed be Thy Name in Heaven and on Earth.

From the edge to the edge of the Universe!

God! Strengthen your strength in confronting the forces of darkness,

so as not to just resist him,

but also to cleanse Mother Earth of this garbage.

Teach to separate good from evil and remain in peace

and firmness of spirit, in order to worthily do Your Will among people.

Strengthen the strength of my brothers and sisters - as loved ones,

May they see Your true Glory and be filled with love in their hearts.

And they will overcome dark obstacles in moving along the Path to Light.

And let them stretch out their hands to each other and give immensely warmth of the soul.

God! May Your Will be done! And will remain on Earth United People,

Loving his Mother - Nature,

reunited with You by my love

and walking along the Path of True Spiritual Development,

IN THE MORNING: “O Lord, bless the deeds of the coming day, and may its difficulties be met as befits those who walk under Your Light.”

IN THE EVENING: “O Lord, replenish lost strength for good, in order to prepare for meeting the day of the future.”

“I go to bed, I have the Cross Seal on me. Guardian Angels! Save my Soul from evening to midnight, and from midnight to morning."

A characteristic feature of modern society is despondency. There are periods in life when everything goes wrong, although there are no obvious reasons for this. This means that a person does not have enough balance and peace in his soul. In such situations, prayers come to the rescue to calm the soul and heart.

The most powerful prayer

The text of the best prayer for calm is as follows:

Virgin Mary, Hail, Blessed Mary,

The Lord is with You: blessed are You among women,

and blessed is the fruit of Your womb,

For you gave birth to the Savior of our souls.

It is worthy to eat as one truly blesses Thee Theotokos,

ever-blessed and most immaculate and Mother of our God.

The most honorable cherub and the most glorious without comparison seraphim,

who gave birth to God the Word without corruption,

We magnify the real Mother of God Thee.

Read this prayer for:

• calming the nervous system;
• stress relief;
• conflict resolution;
• balancing the emotional background.

Prayers to saints for peace

Sometimes, to calm the soul and heart, they turn to saints for help. These include:

“Blessed Elder, Matrona of Moscow. Protect me from nervous hostility, protect me from dire need. May my soul not hurt from thoughts, and may the Lord forgive all my sins. Help me calm my neurosis, let there be no crying of sorrowful tears. Amen"

“To the Baptist of Christ, preacher of repentance, do not despise me who repents, but copulating with the heavenly ones, pray to the Lady for me, unworthy, sad, weak and sad, fallen into many troubles, troubled by the stormy thoughts of my mind. Because I am a den of evil deeds, with no end to sinful customs, my mind is nailed down by earthly things.

What will I do? We don't know. And to whom shall I resort, that my soul may be saved? Only to you, Saint John, give the same name of grace, for you are before the Lord through the Mother of God greater than all those born, for you have been honored to touch the top of the King Christ, who takes away the sins of the world, the Lamb of God.

Pray for my sinful soul, so that from now on, in the first ten hours, I will bear a good burden and accept recompense with the last. To her, the Baptist of Christ, an honest Forerunner, an extreme Prophet, the first martyr in grace, a teacher of fasters and hermits, a teacher of purity and a close friend of Christ!

I pray to you, I come running to you: do not reject me from your intercession, but raise me up, cast down by many sins. Renew my soul with repentance, as with the second baptism, since you are the ruler of both: with baptism wash away the original sin, and with repentance cleanse every bad deed. Cleanse me, defiled by sins, and force me to enter, even if nothing bad enters, into the Kingdom of Heaven. Amen".

The most important thing is to sincerely ask the saint for help, believing in his miraculous powers. You need to turn to the face in the evening; the day before it is recommended to visit the church and pray there near the icon. If this is not possible, then you can perform the ritual at home.

If there is a lot of stress and failure in life, it is worth reading a prayer text aimed at calming the heart and soul. He will give you strength and energy for new achievements.

May the Lord protect you!

Miraculous Orthodox prayers for healing from various diseases

Healing prayers have enormous power for every believing Orthodox soul. Since Christ showed the world miracles of healing from bodily ailments, people have been given the opportunity to heal themselves with words - the power of prayer. By healing, Jesus gave them faith in the one whose will created light and darkness, water and firmament, sky and stars - the Most High Creator. To the extent that the heart believes and devotes itself to the One God, it will respond to him with blessing and mercy in return.

After the ascension of Christ to the Heavenly Throne, prayer became the word that reveals great miracles of salvation in God. Only one condition must be diligently fulfilled in order to receive the mercy of Heavenly healing - firm faith in the Lord. Calling on the Holy Power of God for help through the word of prayer, Orthodox people entrust themselves into the hands of the Just and Merciful, he will arrange everything better than we are given to comprehend.

Where to start in the fight against bodily ailments

We know many confirmed facts when traditional medicine turned out to be completely powerless in the face of mysterious diseases. But incredible healing was given to a person after fervent prayer in church or touching Christian shrines.

After all, the basis for a successful recovery is fervent prayer and strong faith in Heavenly Father. And no healers can compare with him in the ability to heal a bodily illness.

Even medical luminaries have recognized the crushing power that the Holy Spirit feeds a person in the fight against a serious illness. More and more often we see icons and other attributes of the Orthodox Christian Church in doctors’ offices - this is probably not a coincidence.

So! What to do when you have to face a depressing diagnosis? Where to look for salvation from all diseases? Turn to the Creator, find a place in your heart for Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit has power over any, even very hopeless, illness, before which any healers give in.

• Having heard or learned the sad news about an illness, first of all, do not become despondent, for this is a grave sin. A soul that has experienced despondency becomes an easy prey for the devil - fight!
• Before you begin to fight the disease, cleanse your soul of voluntary and involuntary sins - confess.
• Then you should receive the sacrament of communion, which will open your heart to Christ the Son of God.
• In Orthodoxy, healing prayer is widely used, and each individual disease has its own words for healing.
• Very severe cases are recommended for consecration of oil (unction) - this is one of the seven sacraments of the Church of Christ. His power is recognized by all faiths.

Confession and Communion are important for recovery

To recover from an illness, a disease of the body or a heaviness of the heart, it is not enough to take a prescription from a healer, buy candles and an icon, find out an effective prayer - first you need to prepare yourself and your spirit for this. Without repenting of our sins and without going through the sacrament of confession, our soul will not be ready to receive good from the Almighty.

• Confession is an obligatory element of the life of an Orthodox Christian. By admitting our sins, we receive forgiveness from the Almighty, thereby cleansing the soul of their burden. This frees us to receive the Holy Spirit and makes it possible to receive the salvation and healing for which the sick person prays to the Creator.
• Communion is a sacrament by which we symbolically receive the Son of God into our hearts. We give our consent to Christ to rule over our spirit.

Blessing of Anointing – Healing the Flesh by the Power of the Lord

This sacrament is most often performed during a serious illness, when life is on the brink. Usually, the rite of unction or unction, according to the canon, is performed by seven priests. However, if it is impossible for them to gather, the ritual is allowed to be performed by one holy father. The reading of the Apostle and the Gospel is accompanied by the recitation of the litany for the suffering, with the obligatory anointing of the sick person’s body with sacred oil and the placing of the Gospel on the forehead.

• Unction is performed exclusively on a believer, one who has dedicated his heart to Christ.
• You can offer unction in a church, in a home, in a hospital, or in any institution where a sick person awaits salvation.
• Blessing of oil can be carried out both on one and on several people who are thirsty for recovery - their number cannot be limited.
• It is impossible to carry out unction only in one case - when the patient has lost his sound mind (not mentally healthy).

The sevenfold anointing carried out according to the order and the laying on of the Gospel, in addition to calling the Holy Spirit into the body for recovery from all illnesses, also carries with it the removal of all sins from the sick person. This is why it is recommended in special cases, when a person can no longer confess and take communion on his own, in order to call on God’s mercy to help him.

Rituals and prayers to heal the flesh

In the Orthodox Church there is an innumerable number of rituals performed on people thirsting for healing. The pantheon of holy martyrs and saints of God is determined by the Holy Spirit to patronize man in earthly life, to give him hope and mercy for recovery from any illness, so that faith in the Creator does not dry out.

In addition, every ailment can be healed with the presence of a certain icon - a holy image, which is given the power to heal. Prayers for healing diseases are usually canonical. But if you don’t know a specific prayer, then turning to God for healing can be expressed in your own words, the main thing in them is sincerity. However, it is worth remembering that any shepherd will gladly answer any request to suggest the necessary words to address God about one’s sorrows and sufferings, for this is the role of his service to the Orthodox Church.

Toothache

This is the most common and annoying disease. To get rid of it, complex rituals and long prayer services are not needed. It is important to be a sincerely believing Christian in order to ask for help from the Holy Spirit and his assistant, the Hieromartyr Antipas.

• The prayer to Antipas can be read at any time; there are no restrictions or conventions for it.
• If you have Epiphany water on hand, you need to put a small amount in your mouth; it will ease dental suffering.
• It is recommended to read the prayer many times, but in multiples of twelve - according to the number of Apostles.

Migraines and temporal pain

Such an illness can significantly ruin a person’s life, without being particularly difficult to contact a doctor for help. And many people do not accept the effects of chemical pills on the body. But fighting a disease is an urgent need, why endure in pain what can be healed by prayer.

• Be sure to read the prayer to the Baptist in the morning and evening if pain haunts you constantly.
• In case of rare attacks, prayer can be read only when necessary to relieve the illness.
• Prayer does not help when pain is acquired due to a hangover. Drunkenness is condemned by the Almighty as a great sin, and cannot be healed with the help of a request in prayer.

To her, the Baptist of Christ, the honest Forerunner, the ultimate prophet, the first martyr in grace, the teacher of fasters and hermits, the teacher of purity and the close friend of Christ, I pray to you, I resort to you, do not reject me from your intercession, but raise me up, having fallen into many sins; renew my soul with repentance, as with the second baptism, of which you are the ruler: with baptism you wash away sin, and preach repentance for the cleansing of every bad deed; Cleanse me with the sins of the defiled and force me to enter, even if nothing bad enters, into the Kingdom of Heaven. Amen"

Treatment of skin problems - leprosy, ulcers, scabs, abscesses

The benefits of prayers to Artemy Verkolsky were noted in miraculously helping with all sorts of skin problems. The story of this holy righteous man began with the short earthly journey of a timid and righteous young man who died from a thunderstorm. Without being buried, the body of this youth did not succumb to putrefactive changes and remained incorrupt many years after his sudden death.

Actually, after death the real path of the holy righteous begins. Having been transferred to the temple, the relics of the saint began to perform real miracles - an Orthodox Christian who touched them received help for his illness. It was noted that most often it was the problems of skin diseases of a blister nature that were most often amenable to rapid cure - lichens, ulcers, scabs, psoriasis, putrefactive changes.

• When entering a ritual prayer service, it is necessary to observe strict fasting - not to eat fasting food. Keep it for at least forty days.
• Moisten wounds or make bandages using myrrh and holy water.
• The prayer is usually read in the morning, over wounds, before bandaging and caring procedures are performed.

Pray to the Lord, may he keep his faithful people in health and unchangeable well-being, may he give our country peace and quiet, and give us unfeigned obedience; may we all be worthy to receive, after the death of Christians, the Kingdom of Heaven, where all the righteous, together with you, eternally glorify the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen."

Healing the soul and body if you have lost your appetite and suffer from insomnia

When suffering from nervous illnesses, a person may lose appetite or sleep. Usually such problems stem from other illnesses, and the underlying disease needs to be treated. But if the signs of loss of appetite or insomnia that arise do not have any particular reason, then perhaps you simply need to go deeper into yourself and ask God to grant peace to your tormented soul.

Usually, in this case, they try to go to church for services more often - the power of collective prayer will overcome your suffering.

• Confess and take communion.
• Order a prayer for health with your name. Be sure to include your baptized name and not your secular name.
• Before going to bed, read the psalter and prayer to Nikita the Stylite.
• Every morning on an empty stomach you need to drink three sips of Epiphany water - this will restore your appetite.

Remember us unworthy at the Throne of the Almighty and do not stop praying for us to Christ God: for you have been given the grace to pray for us. We do not think that you are dead, even though you have passed away from us in body, but even after death you remain alive. Do not depart from us in spirit, preserving and keeping us from the arrows of the enemy and all the charms of the demonic, our good intercessor and prayer book.

Even though your relics are always visible before our eyes: but your holy soul with the angelic hosts, with the disembodied faces, with the heavenly powers at the Throne of the Almighty God rejoices worthily. Knowing that you are truly alive even after death, we bow down to you, and we pray to you and are dear to you, praying for us to the Almighty God for the benefit of our souls, and ask us time for repentance, and without restraint to come from earth to Heaven, and bitter ordeals, and airy princes, and eternal torment, we will be delivered, and we will be heirs to the Kingdom of Heaven with all the righteous who have pleased Him from all eternity, our Lord Jesus Christ, to Him belongs all glory, honor and worship, with His Beginning Father and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen"

Prayer for healing various ailments

Orthodox Christians recognized the power of prayer to the great martyr and healer Panteleimon. This saint became famous for healing illnesses, calling on the Holy Spirit and the mercy of the Lord for help. Panteleimon dedicated his life to serving Jesus, the Christian faith and the salvation of the suffering, saving their flesh from all sorts of ailments.

In the legends about the saint there are even references to the return of the soul to the body of the deceased, which became a great miracle. Since then, all healers have honored Panteleimon as their patron and mentor. The prayer for illnesses offered to him can be read both by the sufferers themselves and by those who care about the sick person and ask God for his recovery.

• Give the name of the sick person to three churches for prayer for health.
• Place the image of the holy healer Panteleimon at the head of the bed, where the patient sleeps.
• Don't forget about confession. If the patient does not have the opportunity to visit the temple, then it is necessary to invite a priest to the house.
• The prayer service can be held at any time, but it is recommended in the morning. Morning prayers always bring divine light into the coming day.
• Supplement your prayer to the healer by reading the psalter. It contains many songs that give healing to the flesh.

Psalms for recovery and to help those suffering

Every Orthodox prayer contains a secret meaning and a request to the Almighty to save the soul and preserve the flesh. The songs of David - the Psalms - have long been recognized by the Church of Christ as those that have miraculous power to influence the life of the servant of God and help us in all confusion, illness and sorrow. Accompanying prayers to the Lord and his saints, by reading the Psalms for health, you can speed up the fulfillment of your desires.

• Psalm 5 – from blindness and eye diseases.
• Psalm 7 – against nervous breakdowns and mental anguish.
• Psalm 12 – from internal diseases that affect a person.
• Psalm 18 – for easy resolution during childbirth.
• Psalm 27 - if there is a threat of losing your mind.
• Psalm 37 – for dental ailments.
• Psalm 44 – for those suffering from heart ailments.
• Psalm 56 – for headaches, migraines and blood pressure surges.
• Psalm 108 – healing from sleepwalking.
• Psalm 113 - so that the Lord will have mercy and give recovery to children who are lagging behind in development.
• Psalm 145 – from bleeding during injury or surgery.
• Psalm 146 is about the speedy recovery of people who received wounds from robbers.

The power of the word raised to the Lord is so great that it raised the terminally ill from their beds and granted recovery to the hopeless. There are a variety of prayers in the arsenal of the Christian Church; you just have to open your heart to the Almighty and earnestly pray to him for salvation, and his mercy will not keep you waiting long - your spirit and body will recover.

Representatives of Orthodoxy have always believed that depression is one of the mortal sins of man. They call it despondency and have been accumulating remedies for it for centuries. Therefore, in tradition there are many icons and prayers that are directed against despondency, sadness and despair. Even though a sin is mortal, this does not mean that it cannot be forgiven. On the contrary, if the patient himself believes that he has done something terrible, everything is bad with him and there will never be forgiveness, then he is playing in favor of the demons, who inspire such thoughts.

Prayer can help you overcome depression

Only for believers

Forgiveness comes, which means - prayer for depression has a positive effect if the reader believes in God the Father and Jesus Christ, is baptized, has received communion in church, has confessed and reads it with his soul. Then prayer gains power. If you read it without this, then nothing bad will happen. Nothing will just happen at all. When prayer has become smart, it transforms the believer. The Jesus Prayer is no less powerful than special prayers. The simpler it is, the easier it is to remember and pronounce, the more grace the prayer will create.

How does Orthodoxy explain depression? It is believed that a person suffers from it because of pride, which arises when he forgets about God. It leads to the emergence of passions and the creation becomes clouded.

When prayer begins out of despondency and depression, a person turns his mind towards God and thus becomes closer to grace. Ultimate healing depends only on God.

Not like in official medicine

This is the complete opposite of the approach of official psychology. Even if we forget about who performs the healing from the point of view of the Orthodox, the reasons themselves are different. In modern pathopsychology, several varieties and degrees of severity are distinguished. Doctors are well aware of the existence of depression, which comes from within the mind and has no visible or understandable causes. However, treatment is mostly symptomatic.

Medications alone cannot treat depression.

Antidepressants affect the brain and nervous system in such a way that vigor and optimism appear, and positive assessments arise. Only extremely rarely does a state without sadness and grief last for a very long time. The disease is treatable, but often medications have to be used again. This is the most common mental disorder. It is not entirely clear how this fits with claims that recovery is not difficult.

Buddhism and Hinduism against depression

Buddhism pays no less attention to the topic. In general, the view on the problem is similar. Depression is seen as an extreme form of ignorance. Buddhists believe that the main problem is duality. Man strives to divide everything into “good” and “bad.” He wants to appropriate the good for himself, and push away the bad, or what appears to be bad. But this is impossible, since such division exists only in the human mind.

It is impossible to say which mantra for depression is recommended by the lamas. All are good because reading them brings peace to the mind and clears the consciousness. One can use the Medicine Buddha or Diamond Mind mantra, Om Mani Pedme Hung, which is the name of Chenrezig. As in Christianity, the Dharma does not recommend doing this just like that, without dedication and without having an idea about Buddhism itself.

Hindu mantras can also serve well, for example, Gayatri or the “So-Ham” breathing mantra.

Hindu mantras can help overcome despair

It should be noted that modern psychiatry does not consider this path to be vicious only for the reason that it is not scientific, or rather, it is not written off within the rigid boundaries of medicine. If doctors recommend something like that, it’s completely private.

In addition, religious propaganda is now prohibited in Russia. It is possible that attempts to create a synthesis of science and religion, which would answer the question of how to get rid of despondency and depression, could be called a violation of the law.

Once upon a time, official psychology itself emerged from the foundations of esotericism, magic, mysticism and philosophy, religion. But now this connection is possible only at the level of conversations and recommendations. Some psychologists are trying to develop something of their own. Meditation for stress and depression or something similar may be suggested. Some dare to try yoga, but no one can say that healing depends on God and you need to do mental prayer in the heart.

To whom do Orthodox Christians pray?

Let's return to Orthodoxy. To whom is a prayer read for despondency and depression?

1. The prayer of the Mother of God, which is called “Unexpected Joy,” is considered the most powerful. The iconography of the image is associated with a story about a sinner who prayed to God’s joy every day, and then went to commit evil deeds. One day the Mother appeared before her with the Child of God in her arms and began to reproach. The sinner repented, but Christ did not forgive twice. He will set the conditions - to kiss the sores on the hands and feet, which symbolized the wounds received on the cross. The sinner was forgiven and became a right person.
2. Holy Martyr Tryphon. Turning to it helps not only to cure neuroses, psychoses, but also many other diseases. He lived around 240-250 and, as a child, saved entire villages from troubles and epidemics with his prayers.
3. St. Ephraim the Syrian is one of the teachers of the 4th century church, theologian and poet.
4. Nikolai Ugodnik.
5. Barbara the Great Martyr.
6. Righteous John of Kronstadt.

The position of Orthodoxy on the issue of how to overcome depression, despondency and melancholy is extremely disappointing for materialists and atheists. Believers believe that it arises as one of the ways to abandon lies and come to the truth. This means that no methods of drug treatment, as well as anything that has nothing to do with faith, can help. Vanity pleasures are not able to give pleasure from unity with God, but only increase the amount of inner emptiness. Therefore, medical treatment even intensifies the torture of the spirit. A person becomes despondent, his signs disappear, his lifestyle remains the same, and then everything repeats.

At the same time, Orthodoxy does not claim that antidepressants are evil. While they are in action, you can try to comprehend your condition and begin to move towards God.

Magic and esotericism

Oddly enough, depression is assessed in almost the same way by esotericism. The only difference is that there are two points of view and there is no contradiction between them. Magic and mysticism sees deviation as a problem because it can provoke more serious illnesses. These are phobias, psychoses and even paranoid schizophrenia. On the other hand, internal grief distracts you from the outside world and makes you more attentive to your psyche. In addition, illness is evidence of a crisis, which means that a person is growing, because everything that develops sooner or later ends up in a situation of crisis.

Beware of energy vampires!

One of the possible reasons stands out attack from astral “bullies”. These are all sorts of entities that feed on the energy of people - vampires of the subtle plane. This in itself gives a reason to try not only to read a spell for depression, but also to install energy protection, which may be your first magical experience. Christians once upon a time considered this approach sinful. They pray to God, who protects best of all, to the saints, to the angels. Although making the sign of the Cross can also be considered an attempt to build protection. And religion sometimes correlates neurosis with the manifestation of demonic forces. In general, these are the same astral characters of magicians.

The original approach of the Yaqui shamans

The magicians described in his books by Carlos Castaneda have an interesting approach to the question of how to overcome depression and despondency. In one of them, he describes his life as the most obvious state of depression. He broke up with his beloved, watched all the films, re-read all the books and simply could not find where to put himself. This happened due to the fact that he had lost contact with the Spirit - the enormous power of this world. However, the Spirit makes it so that Castaneda meets the old Mexican Indian Don Juan Matus. He begins to make Castaneda’s consciousness more plastic. First, some natural herbal narcotic drugs are used for this, and then the study of stalking, dreaming, and the development of shamanic practices begins. Not a single prayer has been read for depression and despair, but for just a few years the author becomes a different person. He writes books about his training, masters amazing techniques of not doing and doing, and learns the explanations of magicians in theory and practice. As a result, life turns into a “fairy tale” full of danger and adventure.

Don Juan tells Castaneda that you need to live in such a way that you never know from behind which bush a rabbit will jump out.

Don Juan told Castaneda how to deal with depression

Some rules of thumb

It is not necessary to use all of Castaneda's methods, but one set of rules and practices must be used. This stalking, which represents stalking oneself. Here are his main 7 rules and principles. Anyone who can live like this will learn from their own experience how to overcome depression and despondency.

1. You need to choose the place of battle yourself. If you experience discomfort from mental problems, then you need to understand where you will now find yourself. In an armchair and will you watch TV with a sad look? This place was chosen for you by illness. It will be bad, but try to make it happen in a park or grove. So, wherever you personally want.
2. Everything unnecessary should be discarded. Melancholy means melancholy, panic means panic. There's no need to complicate this.
3. You must be ready to fight for your health right now. But you don't have to and can walk away from the battle. Everything depends on you.
4. You need to learn to relax and abstract yourself from yourself. This gives fearlessness.
5. When faced with the manifestation of an illness, you need to relax and do something else. At the same time, you need to allow your thoughts to wander aimlessly and not solve any problems.
6. Those who know how to compress time have a great gift. This means that you need to be aware of yourself and everything around you every second of your existence.
7. You should never put yourself first. Instead, you should take a position somewhere behind the stage and watch events unfold.

In this context, you can create your own special technique. Such meditation for depression should be funny, ridiculous, unexpected and therefore effective. In the stalking system, this is called “controlled stupidity.” The point is that we are always filled with importance and expect some kind of prayer for depression to appear - powerful, beautiful, filling everything with meaning. This approach does not always work. Sometimes it even brings the opposite effect. Depression is inside the consciousness, and an artificial search for strength can strengthen it. Try playing with it. For example, describe your experiences and immediately make paper airplanes out of them and send them out the windows. Picture depression as something beautiful and pleasant. To surprise herself...

Come up with a cheerful ritual of contemplating illness in the form of a heron that stands on one leg and sings funny couplets. There is no point in all this. And you didn’t expect it, because ordinary people work only when it gives them benefit, and you can do it anyway.

Contemplate illness like a heron on one leg

Unexpected decisions

Whatever gentlemen psychologists might think, they don’t know 100% how to overcome despondency and depression, so let’s not rely only on a standard medical approach or on a conspiracy for depression, which you need to read three times a day, and everything will go away. There is no absolute certainty, so you can relax. If we don’t cure it, then at least we’ll have fun.

The methods and principles mentioned in this article are not universal. Human development takes a difficult path. Someone is simply not yet ready to perceive Christian truths. There is no need to blindly rush to surround yourself with theological literature. A prayer for neurosis that would help a person with one character would be inappropriate in the mouth of another. But the runes against depression will also help him.

Let's try to highlight the main complexity of this topic. It seems that God is our heavenly Father who loves and saves. This is so, all believers are convinced of this, but sometimes it’s not so easy to say “ I place my hopes in You. I myself am helpless and insignificant. Help me God and free me from fear" We think that we will succeed, but here’s the twist - we need to admit out loud our insignificance. Nevertheless, this is the most powerful prayer for panic attacks.

Turning to magic to treat panic can harm yourself

No less disappointment is hidden by magic, which even appreciates panic attacks. Esotericism of any school is a complete destruction of stereotypes. The master will tell you that you need to concentrate on the body and be aware of it. The person who is affected by the attack is trying to avoid this, because the body sends too many alarming signals. The concept of “entering your fear” suddenly turns out to be not some kind of meditation in which it is cut out and thrown away, but a close observation of everything that happens to the body and consciousness. However, there is good news. The palette of possibilities is so rich that everyone can choose something.

Anxiety, night terrors, obsessive thoughts - everyone has experienced it. Even in ancient times, people knew that the most effective remedy against mental anxiety and bad thoughts was prayer.

When you are in mental confusion, it can be difficult to find words. In this case, ready-made texts are used, compiled by hermits who lived in secluded places where fears and anxiety act with particular force.

Their prayers are a sure way to get rid of phobias, anxiety, and thoughts that confuse the soul.

Fear of people

Strong prayer for fear and anxiety - David's Psalms.

King David, who lived in pre-Christian times on the land of present-day Israel, suffered persecution from his own son Absalom, who also wanted to reign. Once, while hiding from pursuit, David wrote the psalm “Lord, why do my enemies multiply? " While the king was praying, his enemies were defeated by the power of God, without the use of weapons.

The Davidic Prayer can still be heard every day in an Orthodox church during evening services.

The Monk Ambrose of Optina recommended this prayer reading in order to destroy the evil intentions of enemies, but not to sin ourselves. During times of severe embarrassment, you can read the entire psalm, or say individual phrases that suit the situation.

Other Psalms of David:

You can pray in both Slavic and Russian.

Lord, why have you multiplied the cold? Many people rise up against me, many people say to my soul: there is no salvation for him in his God. But You, Lord, are my Protector, my glory, and lift up my head. With my voice I cried to the Lord, and He heard me from His holy mountain. I fell asleep and fell asleep, and arose, as if the Lord would intercede for me. I will not be afraid of the people around me who attack me. Arise, Lord, save me, my God, for you have struck down all those who are at enmity with me in vain: you have crushed the teeth of sinners. Salvation is the Lord's, and Your blessing is upon Your people.

Unfounded fears

Every person experiences dark thoughts from time to time. It seems like nothing happened, but my heart is tormented by panic and premonitions of trouble. In these cases, they turn to the Mother of God.

She spent a long time in anxious anticipation of the misfortune that was about to happen to Her Son, Christ. Her help is strong in similar situations that happen to people.

In the 8th century, there lived a Greek monk, Theosterictus, who suffered from bouts of fear and anxiety. To get rid of them, Theosterikt compiled a Canon for the Mother of God for prayerful assistance, “read in spiritual sorrow and situation.”

This is a strong prayer against obsessive thoughts that give rise to phobias, printed in any prayer book.

By reading the canon every day, believers truly get rid of fear, anxiety and worry.

CANON OF PRAYER TO THE HOLY VIRGIN,
SINGED IN EVERY SOUL AND CIRCUMSTANCE

The creation of Theostiriktus the monk

Irmos: Having passed through water like dry land, and having escaped the evil of Egypt, the Israeli cried out: Let us drink to our Deliverer and our God.

Chorus: Most Holy Theotokos, save us.

Contained by many misfortunes, I resort to You, seeking salvation: O Mother of the Word and the Virgin, save me from heavy and cruel things.

Passions trouble me and many despondencies fill my soul; die, O Young Lady, with the silence of Your Son and God, All-Immaculate.

Glory: Having given birth to Thee and God, I pray, O Virgin, be delivered from the cruel ones; For now, running to You, I stretch out both my soul and my thoughts.

And now: Sick in body and soul, grant the visitation of the Divine and providence from You, the only Mother of God, as the good Mother of the Good.

Irmos: Supreme Creator of the heavenly circle, Lord, and the Creator of the Church, Thou strengthen me in Thy love, the desires of the land, the faithful affirmation, the only Lover of Mankind.

I offer the intercession and protection of my life to Thee, the Virgin Mother of God: You feed me to the refuge of Thy good, guilty, faithful Affirmation, the only All-Singing One.

I pray, Virgin, to destroy the storm of my spiritual confusion and sorrow: You, O Bride of God, gave birth to Christ, the Chief of Silence, the only Most Pure One.

Glory: Having given birth to good and guilty benefactors, pour out riches of good deeds to everyone: for all you can do, as you have given birth to the mighty one in the strength of Christ, O blessed One.

And now: You are tormented by fierce ailments and painful passions, O Virgin.
Help me: for I know You’s infinite healing, Treasure, Immaculate, indescribable.

Troparion, tone 2

Warm prayer, and an insurmountable wall, a source of mercy, a refuge for the world, we diligently cry out to Thee: Mother of God, Lady, advance, and deliver us from troubles, the only one who will soon intercede.

Irmos I have heard, O Lord, the observation of Your mystery, I have understood Your works, and I have glorified Your Divinity.

The confusion of my passions, the helmsman who gave birth to the Lord, and the storm that calmed my sins, O Bride of God.

Grant me the abyss of Thy mercy, Who gave birth to the Blessed One, and the Savior of all who sing to Thee.

Enjoying, O Most Pure One, Your gifts, we sing in thanksgiving, Our Lady leading Thee.

Glory: On the bed of my illness and infirmity, for those who lie down, as God-loving, help the Mother of God, the only Ever-Virgin.

And now: Hope and confirmation, and salvation, the immovable wall that belongs to You, the All-Singing One, we get rid of every inconvenience.

Irmos Enlighten us with Your commandments, Lord, and with Your high arm grant us Your peace, O Lover of Mankind.

Fill, O Pure One, my heart with joy, Thy incorruptible joy that gives birth to joy, which gave birth to the Guilty One.

Deliver us from troubles, O Pure Mother of God, having given birth to eternal Deliverance and Peace, which prevails over all minds.

Glory: Resolve the darkness of my sins, Bride of God, with the enlightenment of Your Grace, Who gave birth to the Divine and Eternal Light.

And now: Heal, O Pure One, the infirmity of my soul, worthy of Thy visitation, and grant me health through Thy prayers.

Irmos: I will pour out a prayer to the Lord, and to Him I will proclaim my sorrows, for my soul is filled with evil, and my stomach is approaching hell, and I pray like Jonah: from aphids, O God, lift me up.

As if He saved death and aphids, He Himself gave birth to death, corruption and death my former nature, Virgin, pray to the Lord and Thy Son, to deliver me from the enemies of crime.

I am your representative of life, and my steadfast guardian, O Virgin, and I solve rumors of misfortunes, and drive away taxes from demons; and I always pray to deliver me from the aphids of my passions.

Glory: Like a wall of refuge for money-grubbers, and the all-perfect salvation of souls, and space in sorrow, O Youth, and with Thy enlightenment we ever rejoice: O Lady, save us now from passions and troubles.

And now: I now lie on my bed sick, and there is no healing for my flesh; but you who gave birth to the God and Savior of the world, and the Savior of ailments, I pray to You, the Good One: raise me from aphids and illnesses.

Kontakion, tone 6

The intercession of Christians is shameless, the Intercession to the Creator is immutable, do not despise the voices of sinful prayers, but advance, as the Good One, to the aid of us who faithfully call Thee: hasten to prayer, and strive to entreaty, ever interceding, the Mother of God, who honor Thee.

Irmos: The youths who came from Judea, in Babylon, sometimes, by the faith of the Trinity, asked the fire of the fire, singing: God of the fathers, blessed art thou.

Just as you wanted to create our salvation, O Savior, you moved into the Virgin’s womb, and you showed the world the Representative: our father, God, blessed are you.

The Commander of mercy, Whom you gave birth to, Pure Mother, beg to be delivered from sins and spiritual impurities by faith, calling: our father, God, blessed are you.

Glory: The treasure of salvation and the source of incorruption, who gave birth to You, and the pillar of affirmation, and the door of repentance, you showed to those calling: our father, God, blessed are you.

And now: Bodily weaknesses and mental ailments, O Theotokos, with the love of those who approach Thy blood, O Virgin, vouchsafe to heal, Who gave birth to us the Savior Christ.

Irmos: Praise and extol the Heavenly King, Whom all the angels sing, praise and extol forever.

Do not despise those who demand help from You, O Virgin, who sing and extol You forever.

You heal the infirmity of my soul and bodily illnesses, O Virgin, that I may glorify You, Pure, forever.

Glory: You pour out a wealth of healings faithfully to those who sing Thee, O Virgin, and to those who extol Your ineffable Nativity.

And now: You drive away adversity, and you drive away passions, O Virgin: therefore we sing of You forever and ever.

Irmos: We truly confess You, the Mother of God, saved by You, Pure Virgin, with your disembodied faces magnifying You.

Do not turn away from the current of my tears, Even though you have taken away every tear from every face, the Virgin who gave birth to Christ.

Fill my heart with joy, O Virgin, who accepts the fulfillment of joy and consumes sinful sadness.

Be a refuge and intercession for those who come running to You, O Virgin, and an indestructible wall, a refuge and cover and joy.

Glory: Illuminate Your light with the dawns, O Virgin, driving away the darkness of ignorance, faithfully confessing Theotokos to You.

And now: In the place of the embitterment of weakness, the humbled one, Heal, Virgin, transforming from ill health into health.

It happens that anxiety is so strong that you don’t have the strength to read for a long time.

In these cases, repeated repetition of the short prayer “Most Holy Theotokos, save me” or singing “My Blessed Queen” will help:

Singing “My Queen, Offering”

My Most Blessed Queen, My Hope, Mother of God, Friend of the Orphan and Strange, the Representative of the Grieving, the Joy of the Offended, the Patroness! See my misfortune, see my sorrow; help me, for I am weak, feed me, for I am strange! Weigh my offense - resolve it, like volishes! For I have no other help but You, no other Representative, no good Comforter, except You, O Mother of God! May you preserve me and cover me forever and ever. Amen.

Fear of death

Every person experiences fear of death for several reasons:

• the unknown of the event itself;
• fear of leaving children or loved ones without help;
• unwillingness to lose the pleasures of life.

They all stem from lack of faith in the will of God. At such moments, prayer helps against fear and anxiety caused by the expectation of death.

Many saints experienced similar states.

The Venerable Mary of Egypt was tormented by the fear of death, living for 17 years completely alone, in the desert, until the Mother of God Herself delivered her from spiritual confusion. The martyr Boniface, who loved various pleasures during his life, undoubtedly went to death when it came to confessing faith in Christ.

You can ask these saints for help in your own words or with special petitions:

Troparion of Venerable Mary of Egypt

In you, mother, it is known that you were saved in the image, / having accepted the cross, you followed Christ, / and in action you taught to despise the flesh, which passes away, / to be careful about the soul, things more immortal.// In the same way, the angels rejoice, the reverend Mary, Thy spirit.

Troparion to the Martyr Boniface

Thy martyr, Lord, Boniface, in his suffering received an imperishable crown from You, our God, for having Thy strength, overthrow the tormentors, crush the demons of weak insolence. Save our souls through your prayers.

Night terrors

When the day approaches evening and the surrounding environment becomes poorly distinguishable, an impressionable person is overcome by imaginary fears. Children are especially susceptible to this: their imagination draws monsters under the bed or ghosts outside the window.

The first of them calls on God to drive away enemies - evil spirits, and the second tells about the serene life of one who always hopes for God's help.

Living in the help of the Most High, he will settle in the shelter of the Heavenly God. Says the Lord: Thou art my Protector and my Refuge, my God, and I trust in Him. For He will deliver you from the snare of the trap, and from rebellious words, His splash will overshadow you, and under His wing you hope: His truth will surround you with weapons. Do not be afraid from the fear of the night, from the arrow that flies during the day, from the thing that passes in the darkness, from the cloak, and from the demon of the midday. Thousands will fall from your country, and darkness will fall at your right hand, but it will not come close to you, otherwise you will look at your eyes, and you will see the reward of sinners. For You, O Lord, are my hope, You have made the Most High your refuge. Evil will not come to you, and wound will not approach your body, as His Angel commanded you to keep you in all your ways. They will lift you up in their arms, but not when you dash your foot on a stone, step on an asp and a basilisk, and cross a lion and a serpent. For I have trusted in Me, and I will deliver, and I will cover, and because I have known My name. He will call to Me, and I will hear him: I am with him in sorrow, I will overcome him, and I will glorify him, I will fill him with long days, and I will show him My salvation.

May God rise again, and may His enemies be scattered, and may those who hate Him flee from His face. As smoke disappears, let them disappear, as wax melts from the face of fire, so let sinners perish from the face of God, and let the righteous rejoice, let them rejoice before God, let them enjoy themselves in joy.

Short prayers for nervousness and anxiety

In moments of particular anxiety and nervous tension, it is good to read short prayers that calm the feelings:

1. Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on me, a sinner.
2. Most Holy Theotokos, save me.
3. Saint (name), pray to God for me.

At the same time, you can finger the rosary, which helps you concentrate and calms your nerves.

Prayer is not a magic spell, but a testimony of a person’s faith in God.
When asking for the help of God and the saints, you need to try and live according to God’s commandments yourself. Then mental anxieties, phobias, obsessive thoughts and fears will go away without return, and every event in life will bring joy.

Prayers for fear

Mental disorders are, in a broad sense, diseases of the soul, meaning a state of mental activity that is different from healthy. Their opposite is mental health. Individuals who have the ability to adapt to daily changing life conditions and solve everyday problems are generally considered mentally healthy individuals. When this ability is limited, the subject does not master the current tasks of professional activity or the intimate-personal sphere, and is also unable to achieve the designated tasks, plans, and goals. In a situation of this kind, one may suspect the presence of a mental abnormality. Thus, neuropsychiatric disorders are a group of disorders that affect the nervous system and behavioral response of an individual. The described pathologies may appear due to abnormalities in metabolic processes in the brain. For prevention and treatment, you can use the following presented conspiracies:

For intercostal neuralgia

Amphibian knotweed root - 2 tbsp. spoons
Northern breaker - 2 tbsp. spoons
Sabelnik - 2 tbsp. spoons
Brew everything with boiling water (0.5 l) and leave for half an hour. Drink half a glass 4 times a day. Soon you will forget about your illness.

Heal your nerves

With this prayer you can calm your nervous system. A person gradually begins to be less nervous, becomes kinder, has a lighter character, and treats others more calmly. It has long been known: the less nervous a person is, the less sick Melt the church candles in an iron mug so that there is about half a half-liter mug of wax.
Place the patient so that the wax mug and cup are above his head.
Turn his face towards the door. Pour wax into the water and say: Just as wax pours from a candle in Mother Church, so the soul of God’s servant (name) is not given to demonic evil. Just as the throne stands in the church, does not shake, does not cry, does not swear, does not rush at people, so you, servant of God (name), be quiet and calm. The Lord is great. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

From nervous breakdowns

If a wife or mother or someone is suffering from the scandals of psychos and asks for help, then wet the patient’s shirt with holy water, tell him and hang it outside to dry, and when it dries, let him put it on so that the patient becomes calm.
The plot is this: The river does not splash, the star does not shine, the moon does not sway, the servant of God (name) does not eat away. Doesn't grumble, doesn't scream, doesn't wave his arms. His soul is at rest and knows no malice. Sleep, sleep, in the doors, in the windows, in the walls, sleep quietly, there is no dashing and crazy. Amen. Amen. Amen.

For seizures in adults and children

Take the smoldering coals in the ash pit. Throw them into the water, they will hiss, and you whisper:
Lord, help, Lord, bless. Bless, God, my prayer for the help and healing of God’s servant (name). I, God’s servant (name of the healer), speak to this soul and body: from beating, stabbing, shaking, demonic dancing. From the eyes, hands, legs, elbows, nails, blood, breasts, under-breasts, from the brain, stomach, all joints and semi-joints, go away without returning to the body, without looking back, demonic seizures, stabbing, shaking, devilish dances. I'll flog you with a knife. I draw you out with the cross, I whisper, I speak, I reprimand you on hot coals. There is an old oak tree by the sea, go there, have a fit, live there on an old oak tree, and leave the soul and body of the servant of God (name). In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Cretinism

They lay a sheet on the floor, two more on it and a towel on which the coffin was lowered into the grave, and then they lay the patient down. They place as many candles on the table as the patient is old, and light the candles. If at least one candle goes out while others are being lit, then they do not treat that day, but put it off until the next time. While the candles are burning, read: Verb your speech, your thoughts flow. The river of blood and brain is flowing, the brain is alive and well, and not mux and not dashing, and not bad, but flowing. Not one, not two, but three. Most Holy Trinity, wipe away all sickness from the head, from the brain, from the crown of the head, from the back of the head, from the temples, from the sick bodies. The thought flows, but the Lord heals. Amen.
This method always gives good results. The patient's head is wiped with a sheet and towel. Rags are burned in the evening after sunset.

For weak nerves (calming words)

They slander the water, give it to drink, or wash the patient with it. They do this when there are stars in the sky (at least one). In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. You, water, you wash and wash away, you, water, are everywhere: in the lake and in the river, in the ocean and in a bucket. Calm the servant of God (name): from shouting and anger, from rude words, from vain tears, from a thousand angry thoughts. He wouldn't suffer, he wouldn't scream. Cool his anger, calm his anger. Wash, drain, rinse off his wild head. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Be you, my words, strong, be you, my words, sculpted. Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Soothing words

It happens that a person starts a scandal and will not calm down, not giving peace to others. It's not far from trouble here. Who knows how such a scandal could end. Whisper words into the water and give it to that person to drink. He will calm down immediately.
Calm down, walk away from the dead man quietly, take him away dashingly. The tongue is angry - the lock, and the key - under the threshold Amen.

For diseases of the nervous system

Speak water and sprinkle it on all the corners in your son’s room and his bed. They chant the water like this: In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. I, God's servant (name), reprimand my son. I gave birth to him, I gave him a name. I breastfed him, I baptized him in Mother Church. I reprimand him: nerves from the bones, nerves from all the strength, from the ruddy body, so that not a single nerve vein hurts. I will get up, blessing myself, I will go out, crossing myself, I will walk along a green meadow, along a steep bank. There a willow tree grows on the sand, and a golden hut stands under it. There the Mother of God reads the Bible, corrects the nerves of the servant of God (name), takes away everything that is bad and throws it into holy water. His anger melts like a candle, his anger disappears. Christ reigns, Christ commands. Christ saves, Christ heals. Christ himself takes away the anger from the servant of God (name). Key, lock, tongue. Amen. Amen. Amen.

Relieve nervous fever

Sprinkle the charmed water on the patient. They chant the water like this: The Lord raised Lazarus, the Lord helped the suffering. My God, God, help me too. On the sea, on the sand, at great depths, a gray stone lies, on that stone Adonai himself stands, waving an iron rod, knocking the crap out of (name)’s head. My words, my lips, and the help of Jesus Christ. I say those words, and the Lord God helps. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Key, lock, tongue. Amen. Amen. Amen.

Relieve trembling hands

If a person’s hands are shaking, he needs to wipe the dust in the church. And do this for three days in a declining month. Such people should not count money, spin, knit or sew after sunset. Another way helps. Take gloves or mittens and, turning them inside out, hang them on a tree in a thunderstorm, let them dry and wear them without washing them.

From trembling hands

If the patient's hands are shaking, then you need to trace his hand on paper with a pencil. Light the stove in the bathhouse, throw this paper in there and, looking through the open door at the fire, say three times: In the green valley, in the gray smoke, the devil's finger is growing. Whoever touches my smoke will have his hand shake. Go, shaking, seventh devil, to the gray smoke, to the bathhouse shelf, to the damp mother, shaking shaking. Glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

For stuttering

Speak into the water, let the patient drink, and you lightly hit him on the back with your right palm and read what you said into the water, again, but to yourself. The Lord’s speech is pure, the Lord’s lips do not falter, the words are not interrupted, so you, servant of God (name), speak, do not falter and do not be interrupted by hiccups or tossing. Amen.

Stuttering from fear

Read the “Our Father” with water, and then these words: For the first time, at good o’clock, the Mother of God walks across the golden bridge. “Where are you, Mother of God, going?” - “I’m going to the servant of God (name) to utter my fear, to speak my tongue.” - “Most Pure Mother of God, help me. I ask You, I pronounce from the crown, from the forehead, from the neck, from the eyes, from the ears, from the tongue, from the subtongue, spine, from the lungs, liver, kidneys, from the chest, from the dewlap, from the heart, from the stomach, from the hands, from legs, of 77 joints. You can’t stand here, you can’t have blue veins, you can’t burst yellow bones, you can’t rage with red blood. What kind of fear are you? Please stop, don't be scared anymore. Lord, help me, Most Pure Mother of God. Amen".

For stuttering

Read on the young, newly born month. A total of 12 times. At this time, no bread, no money, nothing at all is given from home. An old forest man walks through the forest, he doesn’t stumble, the servant of God (name) doesn’t stutter, he doesn’t get tired of talking, to our joy, to the grief of our enemies. Speak, don’t stutter, don’t stumble in words, just like the old forest man doesn’t stutter, doesn’t stumble. Amen.

Anti-stuttering for men

From a man’s letter: “I don’t want to live. I stutter very badly and avoid everyone. The girl I love will never marry me because to her I’m just a stutterer.”
I give three strong spells against stuttering: for a man, for a woman and for a child. I remind you that all slander is read for a declining month. If a master is treating, then it is necessary that his patronymic does not coincide with the patronymic of the patient. If a person heals himself, then all mirrors should be turned to the east.
Take a rod from a man’s tree, draw a Solomon’s star on the ground with it, circle it, move the patient around in a circle and say: Six, not five, five, not four, four, not three, damn, wipe it off your tongue. Did you take it from the servant of God (name)? I took it. Did you take it on yours? Amen.

Anti-stuttering for women

Read on Women's Day. Neither the master nor the patient should have debts, as well as menstruation. They read at noon, tying knots on the ribbon: 12 devils, brothers, tie and take away from the tongue of the servant of God (name) what she stuttered with, with which she parted. Each devil, his tongue has one knot. Amen. Amen. Amen.

Anti-stuttering for a child

The child is given warm milk to drink by the spoonful. A spell is read on each of the spoons. For a child, treatment day for stuttering is Wednesday. The dog was lying there, the cat came running and licked everything off. You, dog, don’t whine, but you, cat, take it, and you, (name), speak clearly. Amen. Amen. Amen.

From obsessive thoughts

If a person constantly thinks about the same thing (about danger, betrayal, suicide, etc.), he should do this. They tie three branches together, while saying a conspiracy. Then they leave and never return. King Solomon, cunning and wise, take away from the servant of God (name) that about which his thoughts burn, his brains hurt, his thoughts drive him, the devils dance around him. Take him off the black cross. Put everything in its place. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

From apathy

They say morning water and use it to wash the person suffering from apathy. This must be done on Epiphany Sunday. Cover the crown of Christ the Savior, the deliverer of all suffering, with your robe, wash with holy baptismal water. Show the servant of God (name) your salvation. Amen.

From constant melancholy

Melancholic people find it difficult to live not only because they are constantly depressed, but also because such people are usually avoided. They get rid of them in teams because they are difficult to work with. The eternally sad expression on their face brings loneliness upon them. Nobody wants to live with such a person. On Bright Friday (Easter week) you need to wash the melancholic person with water into which three painted Easter eggs, previously blessed in the church, are dipped. They say this: Strengthen my faithful words, Lord, strengthen, Christ, the servant of God (name). Just as people rejoice at the bright Easter, so let the servant of God (name) rejoice in life. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

From angry outbursts

If a person is angry, picky, constantly irritated and makes scandals, you should give him a decoction of the following plants:
Licorice root -100 g
Elm bark - 50 g
Violet root - 50 g
Boil everything and give it to the patient to drink. The inflamed brain and nerves will gradually become stronger. The person will be more friendly, cheerful, and compliant.

From psychosis

Three times a day (morning, afternoon and evening), open and close the hook on the door (latch) and say in one breath the spell: My cross, my strength. The cross is God's symbol. My Baptist is with me. My great cross. The angel held him in his hands, drove out the evil of the demon from the servant of God (name), and subdued him with God’s Word.

From aggressiveness

So, if, for example, you have a son or husband who has an aggressive character, take a tablespoon and bring it close to your lips, read the plot against aggressiveness three times. Give this spoon to the person you read for at dinner.
This conspiracy is ancient. It was used to ensure that there were no quarrels and scandals in the house. Time has shown that he always helped. The plot should be read like this: In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Truly I tell you: no matter how much people eat food from a spoon, they still want to eat again. Just as it is true that people will eat and drink all their lives, so it is true that the servant of God (name) will no longer beat the servant of God (name). Now, forever and endlessly. Key, lock, tongue. Amen. Amen. Amen.

Conspiracy against hysteria

For treatment you will need a completely fresh chicken egg, laid on Wednesday.
Place a patient with a hysterical attack facing east. The healer must take the egg in his hand and roll it over the patient’s body from the feet to the head. At the same time you need to whisper:
In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. I, the servant of God (name of the healer), will get up in the morning and reach the Apostolic Church in the evening. In this holy church there is a Throne, around that Throne there is a mirror floor, in that floor the whole wondrous sky is reflected, the stars, the Moon, and the Sun are refracted in it. The Mother of God sits on the Throne and smiles. I, God’s servant (name), will come closer to the Throne and bow down to the mirror floor below. I will bow, submit and pray: Mother of God, accept my Jesus Prayer. For all monthly days, for all daily hours. And how, according to God’s will, the small will grow, and the great will be reduced to the small, so that the illness of the servant of God (name) will be reduced and will not return forever and ever. Amen.

From hysterics

If a person is hysterical, then from time to time you can give him charmed water to drink. He also needs to dry himself with a towel on which a live fish has fallen asleep.
The character of a person changes greatly after this. Do this three times a year.
Just as a fish is silent, so the servant of God (name) does not scream. Saint Sava, help the servant of God (name), tie your tongue. Amen.

From a burning tear

If your eyes are constantly watering and tears flow in the wind, this spell will help you. It is read in windy weather at sunset. These days must necessarily be the last days of the month - 29, 30, 31, not earlier. Pay special attention to the fact that when your eyes get better, don’t brag about it to anyone, you could go blind.
They slander the water, pour it into their palms and rinse their eyes. Read like this: Through the sucker, through the moss, stalote, wind, pendulum, unquenchable crying. I’ll go to the Lord’s forest, there is a willow tree there. Just as a willow tree drinks the juice of the earth, so it would drink from the servant of God (name) a hot, weeping tear. From now on and forever. Amen.

Relieve melancholy

Read, sprinkling three sunsets on the patient: The dawn does not cry, the dawn does not grieve for the evening, the fog for the Sun, the rain for the drought, the light at night. So the servant of God (name) does not yearn or grieve, does not shed tears, does not suffer for anyone. Amen.

Out of melancholy

Read on the water: Water from the sand, take away my melancholy. She came from the wind, go to the wind, she came from the people, go to the people. Amen.
Then, having blessed yourself with the cross by hand, wash yourself with this water early in the morning before sunrise.

If a person is tormented and sad, you need to cut off the ends of your hair while reading the plot:
Old age and pain, melancholy and sadness, bad thoughts, bad thoughts I will burn with fire and release with smoke. To the forest, to the wild wind. Amen.
Burn the hair, throw it into the water, look into this water day and night. In the morning, pour the water over the threshold.

Speak sadness on the test

The servant of God (name) made an ear of grain, made of wheat from an ear of wheat, made flour from wheat, made dough from flour, made bread from dough. There was bread on the table and it was gone. So that the servant of God (name) will disappear. Amen.

Bring a person out of stupor

Speak water after sunset, lower the cross into it and sprinkle it on the patient.
Cross, cross cross. Man was born, the cross was erected, Satan got involved, God was glorified. In the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Allay the suffering

If something happened to you and you cannot listen to reason or the words of your family and friends, the world is not dear to you, tears and suffering plague you, then do this: wash your face with the enchanted water in the morning and evening. Read with the curtains closed and your feet bare.
The Lord suffered on the Cross, his legs ached, his hands ached, there was hellish torment. The holy blood ran, the soul of Jesus suffered. I will pray for his deliverance. Take away, Lord, the torment from me. Bless me with peace of mind. Glory to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.

Relieve the effects of stress

The state of the nervous system varies among people. One will get nervous and forget, and the other will end up in the hospital. If you see a person losing his temper in anger, spit over his left shoulder and say quietly: There is no storm that does not subside. Calm down too, servant of God (name), in the name of the meekness of King Solomon. Amen. But first you need to read the prayer to the holy great martyr Barbara, which helps in despondency and sadness, serves as consolation in sadness: Holy, glorious and all-validated great martyr of Christ Barbara! Gathered today in your Divine temple, people who worship the race of your relics and kiss with love, your suffering as a martyr, and in them the Martyr Christ himself, who gave you not only to believe in Him, but also those who suffered for Him, with pleasing praises, we pray to you, known desires of our intercessor: pray with us and for us, God who prays from His mercy, may He mercifully hear us asking for His goodness, and not leave us with all the forgiveness needed for salvation and life, and grant the Christian death of our life a painless, shameless peace of participation in the Divine Mysteries ; and to everyone in every place, in every sorrow and situation, who require His love for mankind and help, He will give His great mercy, so that by the grace of God and your warm intercession, soul and body, always in abiding health, we glorify the God of Israel, wondrous in His saints, who does not withdraw help Its own from us, always, now and ever and forever and ever. Amen.
