  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    Advice, not only for me.

    Recently diagnosed with bipolar disorder, I have spent a lot of time looking back at my past mistakes. What advice would you all give for somebody who has run into serious money problems. I have read of it, how some of us spend money excessively. I realize this question sounds rather...

    I am back everyone, after being gone for who knows how long. I suppose I just disappeared, but I ended up at midmo for about 11 days. Not surprisingly, it is a mental health facility, if nobody has heard of it. Although it wasn't how I intended to find out, I did learn more about what is going...

    There is no better group of people to learn from, both about bipolar disorder and life in general. I know we have all done our fair share of living and have plenty of experiences to relate from. At least I know I do. Angelkiss: I had a similar experience although I didn't have a missing person...

    I don't even know how to sort out all my symptoms or describe them, but I will do my best to be as honest as possible. Thank you for all your help (: Take care

    Is it as simple as describing symptoms and severity? I'm sorry for asking so many questions. I'm just lost on, well, almost everything. Thank you so much for the information.

    Thank you angelkiss and berry2000. I have been able to manage this up until now but it has been getting worse and worse. Any sort of diagnosis would be a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I don't want my life getting to the point where it is unmanageable, although it seems I have reached that...

    It's hard for me to list all the symtpoms because a lot of them come and go, but I'll list the major ones. Racing thoughts (I have always had a problem with this. It makes it hard for me to sleep and to concentrate, I also have terrible dreams just about every night.) Total lack of impulse...

    I've seen many symptoms in my childhood as well and still see them today. I just get this feeling that I've been pushing those symptoms aside in hopes that they would just go away but they never have. I wanted to make sure I wasn't being paranoid in thinking that maybe I should see a specialist...

    Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and would like to ask a couple questions. I am 21 years old as of today and have been thinking a lot about the last few years. Is it possible that bipolar disorder is manageable without being diagnosed? Am I just being paranoid in thinking that I may...
