• 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 also have a hard time posting because I'm afraid of what people will think of my post. Will they judge me? I would probably have a lot more posts right now but sometimes I will write a post and then delete it in it's entirety. It's kind of how I am with the spoken word. I will think of saying something in my mind but I'll think it's stupid or worry about people judging me and "delete" it from my mind and keep my mouth shut.

You most likely have a lot of interesting things to add, you could try speaking up when you normally wouldn't just once a day. It's painful and I so understand having your lighthearted and other inner thoughts be crushed by fear of the thoughts of others.

Glad you are on this thread, hope you can post here without a care.:wave:
