I know this is not going to be a very popular response in this day and age, or perhaps among this group, but I have found that the Catholic Church, when you are open to what it truly teaches and has to offer (irrespective of the sinful nature of some of its leaders) offers a vast array of prayers, teachings, sacraments and practices to support the soul.  If and when you are willing to have faith in Jesus, and to deny yourself and offer up your sacrifices out of love for others in his name, his entire Kingdom is opened up for you, and he will not let you down if you offer him your life and seek his continued support.

I sound like a total whacko, but I guarantee you I am as sane and normal as they come.  I never in a million years would have imagined myself a Catholic, but when I allowed myself to seek the Truth, no matter where it led, and I allowed myself to be open to all possibilities, my entire life, spiritual, emotional, physical, etc. was changed for the better.  You just have to be willing to look beyond the controversy and the misconceptions and be open to the work of God in your life.  He provides all the tools we need to make it through those dark times, and they can be found in the Catholic church.

Original Message I thought I experienced this a few years ago, but it seems I am now...or something. Anyone else experiencing this? Feels like everything is falling apart around me no matter how positive I am. The negativity and hate coming from everywhere is pretty overwhelming. I thought what you put out is what you get back, but it is certainly the opposite my way. I thought that if you have love, and send love out, all will be well. Obviously, there will always be normal everyday shit going on. But this is ridiculous. It feels like torture.
