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.

Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hi there @rubyglitter,
So sorry you're all going through some tough emotional times. Obviously, this is my sole opinion so, i apologize if there's no light shed out of my reply.
Some folk handle pressure or depression or any rough & tough times differently. Lies might come out as a way to cope. If he's not really ill and does not have cancer, he might just like the attention that people offer when there's devastating news.
I won't say is okay to lie, but *depending of what his actions are, a friend sticks around regardless. I'm sure most of us have had or have friends that really stretch us thin, but if (specially) they are in need of a helping hand or an ear to listen or even just to offer emotional presence...ya know where I'm getting with this.
All in all, I hope the Lord blesses you with patience. It's a toughy, but we get only what we can handle.
Blessings
