• 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.

''Addiction is a condition that plagues millennials. And it’s not simply drug addiction—whether you’re addicted to inappropriate contentography, social media or entertainment, you’re struggling with a dangerous idol that threatens your relationships, not least among them your relationship with God, who wants desperately to offer you freedom.

But relapse happens. As a recovering alcoholic, I personally know the pain of returning to the bottle, and the difficulty of finding release once you’ve sunk back in. I’m also intimately familiar with the guilt, shame and self-judgement that come along with relapse. Here are a few things that Christians should know about relapse.''
