• 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.

A small poem about my life

Always had I been confronted with my impulses
When they striked always had I given them the best of way
O' how sincerly I called out each time for divine intervention in those mere fleeting seconds
Before following impulse's way
Overtime I grew numb and weary with the pain
Blind to all spiritual truths and reality

Then one day I heard the spirit clarion call for patience
How weak and insincere had I been
For even if it had seemed for the road ahead
I may eventually be seized by my impulses
Shouldn't I had probably put up more of a fight

Delay to the temptations till the end
Till I couldn't hold it any longer and my eyes turn blue
Then will I call out to God for help
Confide to hem that I had done my best to abstain from temptations
And had tried to walk the straightest path

Then shall I look at the impulse again
To quench the thirst for curiosity call
A few trying times I might have fallen
And cried myself to sleep till the depths of the night
But my faith in the divine will remains unbroken

Looking back had I been more patient
Had I given myself more time
And a chance to walk the straightest path
Not fall to impulse in those mere few seconds

Overtime became days, months, years...
One curious day I went to review the impulse again
And see nothing but a small and harmless ant
For the once overtowering giant of impulse
Have long since vanished and been reduced
In my long and patient ministry
Overtime I had became sincere
