• 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.

Today my mom said a negative comment about my weight. It hurt my soul a lot. She does not know how I was abused and overfed. And the medication I am on causes weight gain. I am suffering a lot because of my weight and feel despair and suicidal over it. I know Jesus loves me but it is painful to go through this. I probably will not be able to loose weight till I am off the medication which will take some time. I feel sad because I feel trapped in my body. I don't feel like myself. I want to pray that Jesus one day soon heals my weight and helps me to heal from the emotional wounds.

May the Lord bless you, bluerose, I will pray for you and for me, trying to lose weight.
I came to the end of myself and asked Jesus to take over and show me by the power of his Holy Spirit what to eat. He is helping me and I am trusting him and not trying to diet in my own strength.

That is beautiful that Jesus is helping you know what to eat. I will also pray that Jesus take over and show me by the power of the Holy Spirit what to eat. God bless you.

Lord have mercy! Join a gym, not for weight loss but because exercise helps with depression. Do what you can and pay no mind to what others say
Thank you so much for these words. God bless you.
