In the Middle Ages, when Catholics were distressed by anything, they did not go to mental institutions or psychiatrists.
Instead, often they would sink on their knees and pray the Rosary to Our Lady, beseeching Our Lady to help them.
A fervent, devout, attentive, and humble Rosary will gain you help from Our Lady.
This is important: do not pray the Rosary in a luke-warm and distracted way.
If you want your prayers to bring very great results, then pray well.
Pray with devotion. With fervour. With love. With attention.
