Psalms 69

In high school I went to a catholic school and i was very depressed. One day I thought it would be funny to look up Psalms 69 but instead I found this passage of desperation. 
It always stuck with me:

1Save me, O God!
For the waters have come up to my neck.
2I sink in deep mire,
Where there is no standing;
I have come into deep waters,
Where the floods overflow me.
3I am weary with my crying;
My throat is dry;
My eyes fail while I wait for my God.
4Those who hate me without a cause
Are more than the hairs of my head;
They are mighty who would destroy me,
Being my enemies wrongfully;
Though I have stolen nothing,
still must restore it.
