• 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.

Hi jc, I do hope you are continuing to feel better. I know that our feelings can scream at us and seem louder than anything else. We know that God is greater and that Scripture is true, yet our feelings act like bullies with a microphone. I've been struggling too lately, but God has shown me repeatedly that He's not left me. This is when I remind myself to focus on Him - His love for me, His sacrifice for me, His promises to me . . . Him, not me. My feelings or even lack of them fight for all my attention, but that is a no win situation for me and the devil knows that and tries to use it against me. Jesus knows this also and loves me just as much as if I didn't struggle, so I, so you, can relax and concentrate on Him and bask in His love and forgiveness for us instead of our inadequacies.

Blessings,
Rebecca

I cannot give any advice but I can tell you that I am there too. I am suffering from thoughts and feelings that I don't want Gods path and it's killing me. I try to make up for it by doing good but that's not the way. I am just overwhelmed to extremes. I want to be with God why do I not want this? My thoughts go so deep and they consume me. Just know you are not alone sweetheart.

Hi IneedJesus !
I just entered this forum yesterday, so I'm new in there. I wrote to Medelia yesterday because she suffers from things like us, I can see. I am 47 years old and a christian female. How are you now? I can see that your post is from the month of marth. What you wrote about being overwhelmed to extremes, and thoughts going so deep that they captures you.... Ohhh how I know what you mean!! Since the first of april I have been suffering so much. (I have had about 6 years almost without ocd). I have had the horrible thoughts about blasphemy, about me being the reason that the work at Calvery maybe did not work, about being the cause that maybe God would die, that I maybe don't want God and his help, maybe I want to suffer ! So scary that it feels like hell on earth. The devil is indescribable evil. I do not want to write his name with a capital d, because he just have to be under our feet! I hope so much, that you will reply my message. Are you getting any medication? I get 225 mg of Efexor Depot every morning and 600 mg of Seroquel Prolong every evening.
Greetings from "Primula".
