• 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.

That is great to hear Hope i get that as well, when i pray for the hurting then i receive for myself as well. God is like that because, the farmer receives a share of the first fruits. That is why actively caring and praying for those who hurt helps us through our hard times as well.

We serve an awesome God:clap::clap::clap:

Peace.

I need prayer, as it seems much of life goes contrary to me. There were disasters and crises throughout life and now I am diagnosed with something I suffer from that has no cure, which people die from. There is enough that is discouraging from this, besides the tendency toward depression anyway.

Tempura said:
Said a prayer for you. May God lift your soul and take your burden, friend.

praying for you FredVB, your not alone, please pray for me too.... God bless

FredVB said:
Thank you, Tempura, being lifted and my burden lifted is most meaningful for me.

Michaelaland, thank you too. Prayer for me is helpful to me, I am needing that. And for you, as you asked, I pray for you that God meets you with his provision in your needs.

What I have which has no cure, and is killing people, hasn't gone away, but I am thankful it does not show in any obvious way that it is worsening. I thank Yahweh God, and I thank you who said any prayers for me. I eat healthy now, as I have mentioned, which is a help to good health, and working against depression pretty well. I had started using hemp oil, over a year ago, to help with this condition, and I think it really has been helping. I would use about a spoon of it each day, with food I make. But I ran out of it several days ago. It is a trip out of my way, for me a rather significant one, to go where it is available that I can buy it, and I make sure it is when I have sufficient cash on hand, it isn't cheap, but it is worthwhile when it keeps me healthier and away from dying sooner. So I have yet to go get it again, I want to go very soon, may the opportunity not be so far away still.

This is a critical season for me, with the significantly colder weather. It would really bad for me to catch a common cold that I can't hold off, it is being affected by something like that which likely can shorten my life here.

Did you know that garlic strengthens our immune system? We take one good size clove a day, (and four cloves 4 x a day when the first signs of a cold appear.) We cut the clove up finely and take it with just a bit of water. Because we don't chew it we don't smell to garlic during the day but our immune system is better equipped to fight of the flu and common colds.

Peace.

Thank you for mentioning that! I had heard something like that some time ago, I often use garlic cloves. I will use them much more now.

Put your prayer requests and praises here. We'll be praying over them.
Praying for deliverance from anxiety and depression. Depression is really clouding my vision (metaphorically), clarity of my thinking, ability to get things done. Prayers would be greatly appreciated.

Sometimes The Lord doesn't deliver us from anxiety and depression put He does give us ability to endure and overcome anxiety and depression and deliver us as such.

Be of good courage.

I’m broken and I keep breaking. The more I try to connect to God the more depressed and anxious I become. I want to give up..what is happening? Please pray for me

Can you try and explain how you try to connect to God? For years i sought after God but the lies i believed about Him kept Him away from me. It was only when i understood that He was the God of loving truth that i made good contact.

i will certainly pray you find contact with Jesus through the truths of Scripture and that whatever hinders you finding Him will be taken out of your life.

Peace.

An invitation to The Chosen.

God's Love will not take or will
you to conform to rules or demand
which imprison, enslave, burn or kill you.

God's Love will not pervert what's Good
The Lord loves truthfully Wise and Good.
True Love was, is and always will be Good!

In God's Love you are free to be right!
In His love everything is good proper and kind.
He loves all who love good and true to rule!

His Love is caring, providing, and sharing.
His Love always enjoys and protects good life.
His love rules even when bad life has being in us!

Hear Jesus call - 'Come join up with us all!
Leave whatever ties you down and be free
loving good life with all God's own to be.'

To the rest in your heart God's asks
how long will you tarry in the darkness?
Please leave such bad existence within.

For life must not, no never should, or would, or could,
be forceful, rude, prideful, arrogant, selfish, lustful
or otherwise be untrue to God's loving truth.

Neither should life be hurting or ill,
hungry, oppressed, despised, hated
or otherwise have existence in wrong.

Please hand your Bad Life over to Jesus
Humbly ask for His Good Life back in return
and go love God, self and neighbour with Joy.

The Church knows that Jesus is coming soon
All bad life will be our shameful past then,
so please leave your bad life while you can!

Love

It has been awhile since I updated my circumstances here. I have taken care of myself as well as I could. This year turned things upside down, like it did for others. I still needed to go someplace I cannot now, because of the widespread virus. Even if most are not seriously harmed by it, with my vulnerability it could kill me. Lately here it has gotten so hot I have missed too many days going to the store for what I need, I mean days over 100 F and several of the days over 115 F. Now from fires the air is far too smoky. I can't go out, my life would be shortened from my condition worsening, now I am really just about out of everything. And I have less money to work with.

i hope Jesus will keep you safe, luckily He is The Lord of health and sickness, so we can put our faith in Him to look after us.

If i catch Covid it most properly kill me, my lungs are in very bad shape and i struggle just to survive a common cold.

Plenty of real vitamin C (6000+ a day), magnesium along with some vitamin B6 to strengthen your immune system. Eat a good size raw garlic clove every night before going to bed. Cut the clove up finely and swallow with some water. At the first sign of a cold take a garlic clove every 4-5 hours. It is really quiet amazing how long i have kept a solid flu at bay doing that.

Peace.

Thank you for your response, and the prayers. I have the issue to my lungs too, my main concern, while it is not easy to be comfortable with issues to my spine. I do remember the information to have the vitamins, and the garlic, and I get the magnesium, and have healthy herbs, and I put effort into taking care of myself well. Fortunately these things have not run out, while other things have, and I won't have those until the air is clear enough again for me to dare going out. Even anything to drink can run out before that. May the air clear out much sooner than what the forecast shows me.

I want God to help me and give me a heart and God should show me mercy

He will show you mercy when you put your faith in Jesus Christ as The Son of God. Jesus paid the price of our sins and died and rose to rule beside God. It is for you to have faith in God's love. This is what you need to cultivate, faith in God's love. Try it! Believe that Jesus paid your price and it shall be so. Not before. Only when you have faith will it be true. Fight unbelief by handing it to God to take care of. The more you exercise faith the more you will be forgiven.

So call upon the Lord even now for faith in His love and begin to practice it. When you have in His love then you don't fear His wrath any longer. Joy takes over from fear. It is awesome to be forgiven by God. He is so loving. i will love Jesus forever saving me from my sins.

:prayer:

Ezekiel 36:24-30
"For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you from all the countries and bring you back into your own land. I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. Then you will live in the land I gave your ancestors; you will be my people, and I will be your God. I will save you from all your uncleanness. I will call for the grain and make it plentiful and will not bring famine upon you. 30 I will increase the fruit of the trees and the crops of the field, so that you will no longer suffer disgrace among the nations because of famine. "
