Peace After a Year of Anxiety

Dear Fr. Marco, I sent a prayer for my mental health to you several months ago. I had been struggling with severe anxiety that made every day feel like a battle. I asked for the strength to find some calm and to sleep through the night. After my prayer was carried into St. Peter's, I can't explain it, but a quietness started to settle in. The constant worrying hasn't completely disappeared, but it has become much quieter. For the first time in a long time, I am sleeping better. I feel like I can breathe again. Thank you to you and your team for carrying my request. It meant so much to me. Sincerely,
