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.

Lord, please forgive me a serious sinner.
I definitely feel a heightened sense of anxiety upon taking 3 irons, but I also can't function on 2 irons anymore. Mind you this was the exact reaction when I started iron in the first place. I could not take it every day, but maybe every other day or 3 days apart. I eventually acclimated to that, but when I had to up to 2 irons, the same initial reaction ensued. It's been 4 years now, and I think the Cymbalta is causing my iron levels to plummet. Since I'm supposed to move up to 3 irons, I figured why not, but it's doing the same thing all over again. I'm trying to tough it out though, but definitely not take it every day, yet. Eventually I think I can, but definitely not yet.
I eat more than my fair share of red meat, probably too much, and even then my iron levels are not up to par. My body doesn't seem to absorb the iron adequately. It goes beyond eating the right foods, although that can't hurt of course.Strange how this is that way. Why would an increase in iron effect your mood so dramatically, especially because you lack it? Have you tried eating soybeans products? soybeans have a lot of iron in them. Have a nice meal, red lintels with tuna, onions, garlic and peas, or a nice piece of sirloin steak. That should take care of shortages in your iron levels. Such a meals have a lot of natural iron maybe your body can absorb that more easily.
I recently read that iron in spinach and moringa leaves is not easily absorbed by humans. I wonder if soybeans are the same, if it is just iron in plants in general.Strange how this is that way.

Your post reminded me of the prodigal son. See how The Father ran to His lost son, welcomed him home and threw His arms around him. That’s how your Father loves youI have very horrible feelings, as if God have forsaken me and I have lost the salvation. I think probably it is the accuse from the liar, which tempts me not to trust God’s Love and Forgiveness to me any longer. So please pray for me that i can trust Jesus Christ’s loving truth more and resist the liar. Your prayers are very appreciated.
