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.

the devil must be so happy that I'm always too tired to read the Bible
Thank you Jeshu, Merry ChristmasThe best is to get a walkman and put both Scriptural music and audio bible on it. This way you can put the walkman in your pocket and listen to it while you are going about your chores.
And have a happy Christmas sister.
Thank you Jeshu, Merry Christmas
... I don't like to listen to much music anymore unless it's Scriptural.
Thank you Jeshu, I will look into it. This question will sound silly to most people but maybe not to you. Is it OK to throw away secular music that might be considered very talented but does not make you feel good? What if you regret it later?i have three excellent resources for you
All sing out of scripture and have composed beautiful music along with it.

I think secular music is also ok, if you are tired of secular music, you would like religious music more.Thank you Jeshu, I will look into it.

I think the Union of Yosef and Judah represent the Mashiach, as Ezekiel 37 say, the stick of Judah and Ephraim will be united again and be One.
Zechariah 12:8 In that day shall the LORD defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem; and he that is feeble among them at that day shall be as David; and the house of David shall be as God, as the angel of the LORD before them.
So everyone can be David, be Yosef, nowerday.
Oh dear Yusuphhai, don't let the Chinese government see that. Nice flag though.View attachment 291959

i'm feeling concerned. About two weeks ago i increased my AD from 7.5 mg to 15mg on advise of the doctor to try and see if it can lift me somewhat for my moods have been so low.
Any way my mood is beginning to improve but i also have had an increase in psychotic symptoms. Voices twice and a full on psychotic spell of about 30 seconds. Plus intrusive thoughts galore.
Now i'm scared that the increase in my AD is causing this to happen. It has happened many times before that is why i was on such a low dosage to minimise the risk of mania but help me sleep for that is an other affect this AD has.
If it is not the AD doing this then i'm getting sick again that much is certain. i haven't had these symptoms for near 20 months, that is why i'm worried it is the Ad doing this. Just when i was beginning to feel better.
i'm not sure what to do. Should i go back to half a tablet or persist and see if it goes away again? Now i still know what i'm doing, if i wait to long then i run the risk i'm going to be to far gone.
Might have to make another appointment with my doctor if these symptoms persist.
have you heard of Wim Hof? he is this crazy Dutch dude with like 26 records of various feats. he has developed a breathing exercise and does things like cryogenic therapy I guess it is called. scientist have done lots of tests on him, he has found a way to tap into the systems in our body that scientist used to think are impossible to willfully tap into. he describes a lot in this hour-long podcast S3 E35: Wim Hof and Jordan and Mikhaila Peterson | Jordan Petersoni'm feeling concerned.
