Terrified, please pray.
Hello all, I'm worried sick over a lot of things, too many to list. If you could say a small prayer for me it would mean a lot. Thank you.

how do you eat an elephant?
just one bite at a time
so do your diligence, stay in prayer, if they are the type of problems that you can attack...then deal with them one at a time and go after the source,...tell the person you are sorry, write an apology letter, make a phone call, etc...
If they are the type of problems that need to run their course and time, then pray for peace, and divert your focus to something that can occupy your mind like a netflix marathon, or yard work...if you are like me and can't fully immerse your mind, then occupy your body through physical activity til you are literally too tired to stand (low impact things such as treadmills, stationary bikes, walking around your block over and over like it's the Indy 500, etc...), or if you are especially like me...you need to do a combination of exhausting your body while listening to an audio book or listening to a tv show or other story that can immerse your attention
if it's financial, do your best, google some options, ask a person you trust for advice, and keep yourself busy to take your mind off it

How exactly does one pray for something if one doesn't know what that is? I've always found these obscure prayers worrisome.
What if OP is planning a terrorist attack and wants prayers that it'll go well? While that's quite an absurd assumption, I think it's really absurd to be praying when you don't know exactly what you're praying for.

Glad to hear that you're doing better. I just want to encourage you with this scripture, I hope that you will find peace in it!
"For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:38-39 ESV
