The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.
If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.
If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

Thank you all for the help and prayers. Sometimes I can just feel down and I just can not put my finger on it. We have God, prayer, my meds, therapy, and this forum.....life is good.
Also all the Alkaseltzer you can handle.
Hi,
Coffee and a muffin please? I'm so lonely, I've hit absolute rock bottom tonight and started to dig.
Hi Robert. Did you get some pizza too? What's your favorite? Sushi pizza?? LOL!!Good evening folks!
Thank you very much for the hugs. It does make me feel better. We have home made pizza here. Supreme, meat, and Cheese. We also have Cheerwine (soda) to go with it. Also all the Alkaseltzer you can handle.
Yay pizza!!! can I have a thin crust tuna and black olives pizza slice, pleezzzeeee!How about some pizza to cheer you up? We're here to serve.
Awesome prayer! Thanks for posting it.[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]Dear Jesus, I walk in the valley of darkness for I suffer trom depression. I feel unloved. rejected, useless to myself and useless to others. I feel lost in a world I no longer understand. At times, I want to sleep and never wake up again. Lord, I believe that Your love is a transforming love. Jesus, Son of David have pity on me. Out of the depths, I cry to you. [/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]Lord, even though I feel nothing, I still praise you for the wonder of my being. You have formed me in my mother's womb and watched over me to this moment. I am precious in Your eyes and You love me. On the Cross, you shed your blood for me. You have carved me in the palm of Your hand. For all this I give you thanks and praise. [/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]May your Precious Blood give new life to me and to all those who suffer as I do. Take each one of us and hug us to your sacred and loving heart. Through your glorious wounds may we be healed.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]Dear Jesus, when you fed the crowd in the desert, you wished to gather up the fragments, lest anything be lost. As I wander through a desert and darkness of my own, I ask you to gather up the fragments of this shattered being, lest anything be lost. Through the prophet, Joel, You promised to restore the years that the locusts have eaten. I ask you, lay Your hands gently on my weary head and restore me. Let your face shine upon me and give me back the peace and the joy that has been lost.[/SIZE][/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]Amen

Ooh, pizza and Cheerwine! I haven't had Cheerwine in ages! Deep dish pizza with everything, please? (Hold the jalapenos and anchovies)
I'm better than I was the other night, but still down. I pulled up stakes and moved to Boston from Alabama in August, on the assurance that legal jobs were going begging here. Fast forward to March, the only job I've been able to get is part-time merchandising at Macy's, and my friend told me Thurs. night that she wants me off her couch by May 1 (Happy Birthday to me!).
I have two interviews the first of next week, and I'm praying that one of them will come through. If all else fails, my father will come to Boston and take me back to Alabama to stay with him.
I'm just discouraged, disappointed, and generally at the end of my rope at this point.
