• 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.

I will seriously sit there and be depressed all day, and say to myself, well I lost all my friends, lost my girl, no girl likes me, I cant get a job, I just sit at home all day at my parents house and im 22. I cant find a job, the only thing that even takes my mind off not having a girl is drinking large amounts... but now... i went days without drinking sometimes but now... usually i am finding myself getting drunk, just to feel better about myself.

When Im drunk I forget about what I am. I forget where I live it dont matter (parents or own place) dont <staff edit> matter matter if im drunk. <staff edit> When Im drunk Im happy. I dont worry about future, someone asks me about future, i simply drink alcohol simply. Someone says I drink too much, i get violent and angry and alienate them from my life. Someone trys to help me escape my alcoholism, i consider it a threat and i violently lash out at the person if they dont leave.

If someone asks me if im homosexual I get angry and u better be read for a fist fight.

asking me gay is equal to a threat

I was in wrestleing in high school, and i work out. do the math
