St. Dymphna is the patron saint of mental health, and is especially invoked against anxiety and depression. In moments of stress or despair, she offers peace, strength, and consolation.
Known as the Lily of Éire, St. Dymphna, an Irish-born saint, faced martyrdom at the hand of her own mentally ill father. A church built in her honor is the site of numerous miraculous healings of mental illness.
