Whatever you do, don't give up prayer.

Thank you for answering my question, syncmaster.

The best thing for you is to go to a traditional priest and confess your sins. On that occasion you should discuss the original question with him.

The idea that prayer is meant to make you feel better is a deception. It is not the consolation of prayer that will help you.

If you want to change your sinful ways, Confession and prayer is how you will do it. Stop looking at your feelings and your neurosis, and think about how Jesus felt as He suffered for you in His Passion.

Pray Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, have mercy on me, a sinner. He will answe your prayer.
