• 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.

What's going on?

I'm having some drama concerning another person, the non-threatening type of drama where you don't feel abused but do feel mistreated. And I have no one to talk to about it.

I had someone who I trusted as a friend and who led me in Christ, but I kind of feel like things have gotten weird with them. The problem is, I trusted them a bit too much I think, and now I will just have to pick myself up when I fall, rather than having someone else pick me up. I guess I will get used to it.

Friendships can be delicate, and weird. And dynamics between people often shift. If the dynamic between you both feels uncomfortable or unhealthy, consider taking a step back from this friendship.

Christ Jesus will pick you up, keep in prayer to Him.

As @Gracia said, consider taking a step back to heal, pray about it and see if it's God will in this circumstance.

Sometimes it helps to have distance to process and reflect on everything that has gone on, to allow God to grow you from the experiences you're going/gone through.

It doesn't mean to stop being friends, but just to take some time and be alone with the Lord.
