• 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.

  • 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.

Yay! It's a new thread!

Good morning. I am doing well this morning. I think I've decided that no matter what, I've got to get to church next Sunday. I think falling away from regular attendance was a big part of my problem and maybe I will feel better if I do.

:hug:'s Pat !!! :) Hello Dear Friend...the first poster on the new thread!

I think with myself, because I haven't been to a church service for so long...I'm finding it harder to go when I do have the wknd off :(...I think that's a major part of my problem.

I know how you feel I had recurrent sinus infections and 'colds' for about half a year until I took antibiotics for it. I now take vitamin C to stop it happening again.

I'm a bit down in the dumps today too. My pet rabbit died two days ago. She was not even sick. It was a sudden death and a bit of a shock as we had had her for 5 years. She should have lived a bit longer than that.

Hugs to a fellow rabbit lover. Rabbits often die this way, rapidly, many without warning illness. Others get sick and just are gone quickly. May God bless you with comfort!

Hugs and prayers dear friend. I have missed you!!! May you kick this infection quickly and may you return to a blessed place of levleness and comfort and peace!

Sick with a severe sinus infection (orange mucus anyone?) and mysterious back pain (I have an appointment with the chiropractor today).

But besides that I've been level or very up, which only concerns me because that means I'm due for a very big down (my mascara doesn't survive those very well).

Welcome BlessedPearl :wave:

I wanted to sign your guestbook...but you don't have that option...so I will type that here :)

I am on antibiotics now...as I found it was a bit more than a common cold. And the vit C is truly a good idea.

Sorry to hear of your rabbit :( It is so hard to say goodbye to a family pet. :hug:'s

I look forward to getting to know you and hope you feel free to post here anytime :) A bunch of great people post here. They are full of encouragement, support and share from their hearts.

Wendy :)

Hi CrazySage,

Welcome to the thread! I hope you find support, encouragement and find out how dear the people are who post here :)

Sorry to hear you are also suffering from a sinus infection...I know it is an awful thing to have... especially when there are other things 'out of wack'

I look forward to getting to know you thru the forum.
May your sinus infection and back pain leave quickly.

Wendy :)

I'm glad to be back here...seems just seeing my dear friends posts and names....fills me with some joy.

Because I'm feeling physically ill...not really sure where I am ... grumpy forsure. Not up for 'human contact' perse, so it's a good thing I took a sick day from work today.

I am so grateful for you my friends. :hug:'s to all!!!

Hi all, Been awhile since I've posted. Computer problems at home and busy at work. Welcome to Crazysage. Sorry for those of you who are ill. Hope the antibiotics work fast and you recover quickly. Also try saline nasal sprays to wash out sinuses. They help clear out the bacteria and stop you from reinfecting yourselves. Also, don't forget to change toothbrushes. Just a little advice from the medic in me. I'm doing pretty well today. Had been feeling a bit crazy but things looking better today. Trying to keep remembering God is on His Throne and In Charge and I just need to surrender to His Care.

Oh fun... well, the down hasn't been so much a down as just a whole lot of apathy... felt like throwing myself out of the car was a better option than listening to my mom talk for another second on the ride home from the chiropractor's, which makes me feel bad because I love my mom and I love talking to her but I guess I can't help it.

I am grateful for you too, my friend. :hug: May you recover quickly from this physical illness. As far as church goes, I know what you mean about how hard it is to go back after you've missed so much.

Welcome Crazy Sage. Sorry I forgot to welcome you earlier. Hope you're doing better and glad to see you found your way here.

I know how you feel I had recurrent sinus infections and 'colds' for about half a year until I took antibiotics for it. I now take vitamin C to stop it happening again.

I'm a bit down in the dumps today too. My pet rabbit died two days ago. She was not even sick. It was a sudden death and a bit of a shock as we had had her for 5 years. She should have lived a bit longer than that.

Manys :hug: 's. So sorry to hear about your rabbit. I hope for you that you're lifted from the dumps soon.

Pray that we find an apt for my son who leaves this weekend for college and that the social security decision will come quickly!!!!

I will be in prayer for you on that, my friend. :)

Prayers all the way around for everyone. May we find a little peace. :prayer:

I just want you to know Hon, that I know exactly what you mean by this. There are many a time in my life where I'd sooner 'throw myself out of the car' rather than listen to a loved one. Can't explain it...just happens. I believe me feeling that way at this time is due to the fact of the sinus infection...my heads too full of 'mucus' to fit anyother thing in there. Noise (including voices) are just TOO much!

Bottom line...it's okay to feel that way. It's just a feeling and will pass :hug:'s
