• 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.

A guy who goes to some meetings I go to told us one day that as he was leaving for the meeting his neighbor was doing yard work and asked him if he was going to one of those AA meetings. My friend said that yes he was. The neighbor asked him how long he had to go to them for. My friend replied that he had to go to them for the rest of his life. His neighbor replied, "Damn! Which judge did you get?"

True story.

Post your own experiences or even related things that bring a smile to your face.

A man died and went to heaven.St Peter asked,"What denomination are you?" The man replied,"I don't belong here,I don't go to church".St Peter said"Well,we don't make mistakes, you belong here, lets just walk around and you can see where you'd like to stay"

So they walked down the hall and St Peter opened a door and there were all these pews with people kneeling and praying and crossing themselves.

"Who are they?'asked the man.

"Those are the Catholics",answered St Peter

"Well, I don't want to stay here,"said the man,and they walked on down the hall.

St Peter opened the next door. Inside were all these pews with with people sitting straight up staring ahead.

"Who are they?" asked the man.

"Those are the Protestants answered St. Peter.

"Well I don't want to stay here," said the man,and they walked down the hall.

The next room they came to,St. Peter opened the door and the man smelled coffee.The man looked inside and there were all these people laughing and hugging and they got in a big group hug and said the Serenity Prayer.

The man said,"I like these people,who are they?"

St. Peter said,"I don't know. They won't tell us.":))))))))

- Why aren’t people in recovery good dancers? They lose interest after twelve steps.

- Why did the accountant do so well in AA? He was already a friend of bills.

- Did you hear there's a new 12-step program for people who talk too much? It's called on-and-on-anon.

- A new definition for 13th Stepping .... Steps 1 + 12, "My life is unmanageable and I want to share it with you!"

- Jim is told by his sponsor that he needs to participate more in service work. So he applies for the position of treasurer. They hold a group conscience and ask him "What is nine multiplied by four?" He thinks quickly and says "Thirty-three." After the interview, he realizes his mistake. He’s surprised when they inform he got the job, despite there being four other candidates. “But I got the wrong answer,” he protests. “Yeah, we know. But you were closest.”

- A juggler, driving to his next performance, is stopped by the police. "What are these matches and lighter fluid doing in your car?" asks the cop. "I'm a juggler and I juggle flaming torches in my act." "Oh yeah?" says the doubtful cop. "Lets see you do it." The juggler gets out and starts juggling the blazing torches masterfully. A couple driving by slows down to watch. "Wow," says the driver to his wife. "I'm glad I quit drinking. Look at the test they're giving now!"


If you have any recovery humor that you want to share, please post them here. May your day in recovery be filled with lots of laughter, happiness and serenity.

Can't Get Enough

A drunk is walking along a beach and finds a lamp. He rubs the lamp and out pops a Genie who offers him three wishes. The drunk says I want a bottle of whiskey that never runs out. The Genie grants the wish and says, 'Whats the second wish'? The drunk relies, another one.
