Dear readers, Catholic Online was de-platformed by Shopify for our pro-life beliefs. They shut down our Catholic Online, Catholic Online School, Prayer Candles, and Catholic Online Learning Resources essential faith tools serving over 1.4 million students and millions of families worldwide. Our founders, now in their 70's, just gave their entire life savings to protect this mission. But fewer than 2% of readers donate. If everyone gave just $5, the cost of a coffee, we could rebuild stronger and keep Catholic education free for all. Stand with us in faith. Thank you.

  7. Anxiety / PTSD / Panic Disorder - Quit drinking 2 years ago, quit smoking cigarettes 6 months later, and 3 weeks ago I quit smoking marijuana. The doctors now tell me that marijuana was the only thing keeping my PTSD and Panic Disorder at bay all these years. I am no longer able to work, or even function as I am now in 24/7 panic attacks. Since I have no job, no insurance, no medicaid I have not been able to receive help. I was given a 2 day supply of anti anxiety medicine, upon which when it ran out I am now in 24/7 panic attacks again and may have to continuously go back to the hospital. Smoking marijuana will take this pain away but I no longer want to use drugs, I just want to be sober, normal and to embrace god's love. Please pray that my anxiety will pass and I will become whole again. I have had a very rough life, that is why I turned to drugs and alcohol, but now the anxiety I have seemingly stems from nothing at all. I will be attempting to go about my day normally and for no reason at all have major panic attacks which cause me to no longer be able to do anything at all. Thank you so much for your prayers.

    Richie, 12/31/2015

  14. My New Year’s resolution for 2016 is to live my life without God. 2015 was the year of unanswered prayer for me. So I will live my life without God, as it did not make any difference when I did believe in God.

  4. I've been praying for over a decade that I would find the woman that I want to spend the rest of my life with. Last winter my heart was broken, and I promised that by year's end my faith would bear fruit or die. As the final month bled out I prayed harder than I ever have in my life, only to have God give me the exact opposite of what I wanted. Instead of finding a woman that I want to spend my life with, my little brother got engaged, proving that I can't trust God anymore than I can trust the devil.

    Robert, 12/31/2015
