Rosary for people with addictions

We pray with Mary for the liberation of all slavery.

meditated rosary

The addiction chain to the one who suffers and hurts those around him, and often will alone is not enough to break those ties. The Rosary places us next to the Cross of Christ, who carried our weakness, to ask for light, strength and hope on the way out. To pray does not replace the necessary treatment or accompaniment, but it supports the heart when the struggle is long and recalls that no one is lost in the eyes of God.

Suggested mysteries: Painful

Spiritual fruit: Liberation, hope and perseverance

When I pray: By yourself or by a loved one in this struggle

How to pray it

Pray the Holy Rosary as usual - sign of the Cross, Creed, and every mystery with his Father, ten Avemarias and Gloria. Before you start, do the initial prayer; in every ten, you welcome the proposed intention; at the end, the final prayer. If you want to pray it guided step by step, enter into Begin the Rosary.

Opening prayer

Holy Mary, Mother of those who suffer, I come to you for all who live trapped by an addiction and for those who love them closely. You were with your Son in his passion without looking away; you also remain with these people in his struggle. He asks for the strength they do not find alone and the humility of seeking help. May they not surrender, may they not feel condemned, and may they discover that the freedom of God's children is still possible. Amen.

Mysteries and meditations

Sorrowful Mysteries — for this intention:

1st mystery - The prayer of Jesus in the Garden

Jesus knows the anguish and temptation to flee, but he is sustained in prayer to the Father. He who feels the weight of his slavery can join his supplication to that of Christ on that night.

Intent of this ten: for those caught by an addiction.

2nd mystery - The flogging of the Lord

Christ carries the pain of many in his body. We ask for the families that suffer in silence, that watch, wait and sometimes they are exhausted by holding the loved one.

Intent of this ten: for their families.

3rd mystery - The coronation of thorns

Humiliate, Jesus does not lose his dignity. He who falls is ashamed and discouraged; we ask that he not sink into guilt, but that he rise again.

Intent of this ten: for those who fall.

4th mystery - Jesus with the cross way to Calvary

It falls under the weight and needs the Cyrenees to follow. Recognize that it is not just a defeat, but the first wise step: we ask for those who want to go out and need support.

Intent of this ten: for those who want to go out and cannot alone.

5th mystery - The crucifixion and death of the Lord

On the Cross, Jesus gives his life for love. We ask for doctors, therapists, volunteers and companions to turn themselves in so that others may regain freedom and life.

Intent of this ten: for those who help them.

Closing prayer

Our mother, we entrust to you the fruit of this Rosary prayed for by people with addictions. It accompanies every small step towards freedom, supports those who fall and comforts the families that wait. Bless those who help and give us all perseverance not to give up. Let no one stay behind and let your Son, who came to free the captives, open a path of hope for each one. Amen.

This prayer is spiritually accompanied, but it does not replace specialized medical and therapeutic assistance. Getting out of an addiction often needs treatment and professional accompaniment: taking that step is a sign of strength, and prayer walks next to that care, never in its place.

When you finish, you can offer this Rosary like a rose to the Virgin in the Rosary Garden.
