How can I learn how to keep going when my spirit is broken?

2016 was the worst year I have had since 2005. Actually these last few years have been very bad. Almost everyday if not every week something bad happens whether it would be receiving bad news or just simply having s bad day.

My mom has been in and out of the hospital since late 2015. She keeps going from the hospital to rehab and then home again.

I have so many things on my plate that needs to be taken care of. Everything I try to do, I run into raid blocks and red tape. I keep getting knocked down and out and have to keep starting all over again.

All my problems keep snowballing. I never feel good about things. I don't trust how things are going to work out. Prayers can only take me so far. I don't know where to turn for salvation or how much more I can take.

I know it's life and you have to take what gets thrown at you, but I just can't ever seem to catch a break from problems, anxiety and depression. Can someone out there please help me to feel better? Even if it's just s few encouraging words.

    I don't know what to say.. Just hope for the best, that someday you'll find some kind of peace and/or happiness.

    It can't happen if you stop searching for it and just give up, just to end up as another statistic. Unfortunately life is hard, and it's unfair for a lot of people.

    Maybe it's also best to seek professional help if you really need it. Sometimes just having someone to talk to makes it all better.
