• 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.

Ok, so I am I'm the process of building 12 web page with forums, like this site but with more rules in place to protect the members. I am also going to have testimonies from the web designers and a pastor with a doctorate te that has mental illness. Were going to have articles, and links. And a personal messaging. It will have links to other places to seek help. And a church locator of good churches to go to. And much more. Any comments or ideas or testimony please post here.

Yes lay hands on the sick and set them free? Just like Jesus told ya.
Believers will lay hands on the sick and they will be free free.
key word in there is believers.

Christ said don't you know that you will do even greater than these things I done.

Nothing shall be impossible to YOU jesus said.

Ask and don't doubt in your heart and it WILL be done for YOU.

No point talking about what they have. Just do scripture and set them free.

I think that is a good idea. It would be nice if the contents of the forum are only visible to members. This might help people feel comfortable sharing their issues.

What about a private facebook group? I have heard people mention these, but I don't much about them. Maybe that would save you a lot of effort in set-up?

You can save the content of your website on your computer as a database. You can't save the content of a Facebook group.

Such as no putting down members that seek treatment or take meds, or received healing. Just no belittling. Such like that and probable less rules in other areas. Its totally in th works.the site is up just no forums or articles yet. I am codeing it now. But it is a site committed to wellness.

Sounds really good. I guess there is just stuff that is obvious to us, like, "No calling mental illness demon possession." LOL
