• 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 drunk wakes up in the bottom of a deep dark hole.

Someone walks by outside, he holler out for help. The person stops and it's a politician. The drunk asks for help. The politician promises to ban holes if elected and to subsidize ladder sales. The drunk thanks him for trying, the politician leaves him a hand bill to post in case there are anymore voters in the bottom of the hole. The politician moves on and the drunk is again alone.

Next a psychiatrist walks by and the drunk calls out for help. Were you born there or did your parents put you there asks the psychiatrist. They talk for a while and the drunk feels a bit better about being in a hole, the hour is up though and the psychiatrist moves on. He is scared and alone.

Next a recovered alcoholic walks by and the drunk calls out for help. The recovered alcoholic instantly jumps down into the hole with the drunk. The drunk exclaims; "what the hell did you do a fool thing like that for? Now we're both down in this hole!" The recovered alcoholic simply responds; "That's OK, I've been here before,..... and I know the way out."
