• 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.

I went to a restaurant today, and right before getting in I started praying and at the end of my prayer an intrusive thought came into my head which made me have to say my prayer again and while I was saying my prayer again, with my head down, I hit my head on a wooden plank which caused me to be out of it. A few minutes ago, I watched a sinful video and I didn't realize it was wrong for a few seconds. I guess I never realized how hard the devil tries to make you sin. So please, pray for me or teach a prayer to keep the devil away.

There is a reason that biblically the word for sin means missing the mark is because we will miss the mark. So if you pray, ie. talk to G-d, look in the direction you wish to go. Ask about how better to go that way and go that true path. if you deviate repeat prayer and go further on the true path. As with archery which is where the word for sin comes practice going the true path is the way to strength and better aim. Do not think of the sin but re-put your eye to the path and continue.
