• 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.

what are you feeling right now? (24)

Hi brother, how are you going? Good to see you around the forums. Whats been up at your end of the woods? No, i don't like taking pain killers much i rather sit it out, unless they are really bad of course, then i like to take panadeine forte, strong enough to knock me out and get me some sleep.


How is Covid going where you are? Have you reach herd immunity yet? Did you loose any loved ones? Was the death toll really so high? It seems to me that there were a lot of inconsistencies.

In Australia we killed the spread of the virus. And now we have two groups, the impatient ones, like me, who say lets get on with it, and the fearful ones, a big group, those who watch and believe the media, and want to stay put.

As far as i am concerned Covid is an invention of the wicked human mind, designed to bring power to those who have already have much power. The whole Covid facade is as undemocratic as you can get. Trickery and sorcery nothing less. The priests of the The Beast grab for world dominion. Sinking us into massive debt and then enslaving us to paying it all back.

God be with us all.
Some seem less concerned now. Last i heard the death toll was at 104k and they said our deaths are more than other places. We have those riots and protest going on due to the unjust treatment of how cops ( humans in general really) are in the modern age. Weird that they are happening, i am sure this covid-19 stuff is partly the reason why people ended up protesting and rioting.

The only out of place death was an ex-boyfriend of my aunt, but i never heard it being because of covid. Cases seem to be way more in big cities.

Our city apparently raised property taxes. So our landlord increased our rent during this crisis. Unemployment is high. Society is in general wack. Better to have a Christian society bring the kingdom of heaven to earth, it would be more stable. But that would be the greatest miracle the earth has ever known.

Just checking in.

Minneapolis is on fire, though I don't live there and I don't know where I stand because I'm trying to be a good ally but cannot condone the burning of properties. My state is re-opening and now there's been new cases & I have to get tested. Otherwise, I'm doing okay and barely focusing on the news, and instead, playing Animal Crossing and writing.

I've started the second draft of one of the books I'm writing and have obtained (somehow) a really good support system.

How's everyone else?

How's everyone else?

I've been really good all this month with only a few days that were downish.

We are battling a nursing home who is looking after my mother in law, they wont let us take her out because we didn't have a flu shot. They have been playing dirty tricks and acting completely against the law. We are considering taking them to court, but they are of our Church, and so they is a lot of politics involved. i'm just a mad man raving, but my wife was born in the Church that set up a home to look after the elderly but they are acting hypocritical and illegal, keeping us from seeing mum just because we didn't have a flu shot. As if Covid would respect a flu shot, such thinking is totally ridiculous.

Our son is going through a nasty break down in his marriage and has needed a lot of support and care through this difficult time. A case of both at fault but only one taking responsibility while the other just keeps on going. A painful thing to watch, to see two people who only recently loved each other destroy their relationship, while the kids suffer.

So yes a lot going on but i'm still fighting strong. Good to see you around even better hearing you are well.:wave:

i had a really good week but today i'm feeling lowish again. Sick of life down here, it is no more than a constant death, finding my existence rather meaningless right now. Not sure how best to challenge that at the moment.

That would be hard Jeshu and I hope & pray things turn around for you soon. Keep praying and I find walking helps lift my spirits when I'm down.

Would you consider moving somewhere else?

Suicide rates are four times higher in spring and summer than they are in winter. Some studies suggest that one factor for this might be pollen.


That is interesting. i thought that Winter had more depression because of the lack of Sun but not it seems people get depressed from pollen. Not sure what to believe any more. Personal life choices, social pressures and/or physical illness seem to be the three courses of depression. For me pollen are fine, most of my break downs have been Winter and vitamin d3 did miracles when i first started it. Still even taken that did not take my depressive moods away, learning to cope better with myself when i getting ill has been the biggest contributor to staying away from the deep end.

Do you think pollen might effect your depressive moods brother? Be interesting to see.:wave:

My father (and mother) insists in Atheism .So how succesful the education of Atheism is. Why doTaiwanese and Chinese are quite different? because their background of spiritual education are different.

Anyway, have a blessed week. And thank you for your precious friendship. All glory to the Lord.He Rules.

It seems pretty clear that winter does have a depressing effect. Don't know if pollen does anything to me or not. Human biology is pretty complicated. The modern world has made things even more complicated.

Yellow 40 or w/e is probably not natural to eat. There have been instances of ignorant Indians adding lead oxide to turmeric so that they can make more money. Tumeric is in mustard sometimes. sad that tumeric is a health thing and yet no one needs to be eating lead oxide. I can only hope the health industry makes sure their food quality is good.

And we have the whole technology thing going on now. Social media is pretty bad for young women sometimes.

I feel like the world is going to eat my liver. Seems like I am just living to one day have my head chopped off for being a Christian. Seems like such a waste.

i've been struggling with periodical deep inner sadness. This world running after the magic potions of the beast and forcing their wicked ways on everyone.

Why does God allow world government to oppress world's people? They are so dubious and infect everyone with fear for the other. How is loving your neighbour fit into their schemes?

Anti-Christ spirituality rules this world and the Church is fast asleep. No wonder i feel sad sometimes.

Hope everyone else is well.
