What's Hobble's real name? I'd like to include him in my prayers.

I'll be prayin for ya man. In the meantime, keep your scapular on. Don't you dare think of taking it off! And add on a green one while you're at it. Stick to your prayers even though they may feel empty and useless.

Remember that God and His Blessed Mother love you, and we do to, and we're here for you when you need us.

Prayers said through dark nights of the soul are far more meritorious than prayers said on sunny days of the soul.

Pray when it feels good, pray when it doesn't feel good. Pray always.

Many of the greatest saints went through the darkest or dryest spells. Even St. Therese of Liseux wrote about her own "dark night of the soul".

Some of you said that he was a teen. Is it true?

No. I think he's like 25+.

EDIT: or somewhere around there.

s2s,

Sending you my phone #...

Something is happening across the world... anyway... call me if it is worse... I'll fly there and kick E's (his real initial) sorry ass... and he'll wish he'd died :)

What on Earth?

Where does Hobbledehoy go to Mass? He must go to either the Fontana or Santa Clarita CMRI, if he is a sede, no? Well, this isn't the place to ask, I'm sure he wouldn't want his identity revealed now, not that anyone would judge him for a bout of depression.

Anyway, I will pray for him. Just like with everyone else this thread was really out of the blue for me -- and I am no stranger to dealing with people with depression. In fact, it's almost like a running theme in my life. Hopefully if I've shown any charity, the favor will be returned in case the bug bites me. You never know.

I don't think this is a dark night of the soul. The suicidal thoughts and nervous breakdown don't seem indicative of that. It sounds like he is under pressure of some kind or grappling with something. Hopefully his friends will try to get to the bottom of it.

He has expressed before that he greatly desires to remain completely anonymous. It wouldn't be a good idea to talk about his locaation or name, etc (in public at least).
