• 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 poem I wrote just after my mate died, thought I would share.

Earlier this year on of my school mates was killed in a car accident. I wrote this the night I got the confirmed text that he was dead, I then passed it onto one of my mates a few months later when her mate comitted sucide, she said it helped her so I thought I would now pass it onto the ones on this forum who are dealing with a loss right now.

Many tears are shed
For the lost
No one understands
Until we count the cost

Lives are gone
But memories remain
Everyone prescious
Through this pain

Remember them as they were
Not by the tradgety that took them away
Remember there lives, the joys the pains
And maybe soon the pain will give way.

I hoped with time you will all find peace in your hearts about the loss of people you guys care about. Just over a year ago I lost my role model my Opa (Grandfather) although I still miss him a lot I remember the good times with him, and I'm glad he is no longer suffering.

I wish you all well on your own journies to do with the pain of loss, if anyone wants to talk feel free to PM me anytime.

Nat
