• 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.

Hi there,

Regularly, I will check in with a meditator in Western Australia. Recently, I found one of his talks on mental illness. There is also a talk on mental suffering.

Buddhism and mental illness (1 hr)

Mental suffering (1hr)

At some point I will watch a bit - but for the moment my meditation is going well.

Thanks,
C

If it helps fine, but do remember that the bases for all his work is faulty. It is not based on Jesus so he does not allow for sin and the effects of sin nor for the peace and security that faith in Jesus brings.
