• 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.

I agree that prayer is good, but is there someone you can talk to who will help you and not make you feel worse? It's never good to be so depressed and all alone with the pain. if you want to talk, PM me - I'm a good listener:)
God is not angry with you. I am sure he sees your suffering and just wants to break in and let you know how much he loves you!
I will be praying for you!

I was there once my dear friend. I found that by spending my time not on me but on others I gradually came out of it. I'm still heavy but not as heavy as I once was.

I find that when I reach out to others they reach out to me. It does help to be with people who love you. If I could I would take it all away for you. I cannot, but Jesus can. Please just rest in him knowing he wants to help you.

It isnt about the eating. It really isnt. It's about your feelings. They are false if they say bad things about you. You are a kings kid! He loved you and loves you so much he would have given himself if only for you! You are that special to him.

Because I have been there you are special to me too. send me a note if you like. I am usually up late. Love is a decision and the best decision I can make today is to love you.

I am here if you need me. I am praying for you!!

Don't worry God will always forgive you as he loves you soo much and so praying really will help. I agree though it might best to seek professional help and find someone to talk to, it really helps!
Hang in there!! My PM box is always open too!
Praying for you!!
God Bless,
Alex :hug::hug::hug:

Reignite a love in an activity you love doing, whether it's teaching Sunday School for little kids, taking art lessons, singing in a choir, etc. It's not ignoring the problem, but I found that when I was trying to recover from my ED in high school, I had lost touch with the things/people/God I loved so much.

Sending up a prayer for you. Don't give up, ever. God is faithful. I've been there :)
