• 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.

Hello, my name is Benjamin and I have been addicted to one drug or another most of my adult life. I am 26 years old and have two years clean from Heroin and other drugs!

Now, if you are like me and struggled with addiction you most likely have a hard time dealing with problems and people in your life. I find myself dealing and struggling with resentment and anger EVERYDAY of my life! But with the LORD I am able to refrain from acts of violence, relapse, or other self-destructive actions. :amen: !!!

If you are truely not of this world, and find yourself facing these problems on a daily basis I reccomend you do what I do. Listen to to Beatles song "Let it be" and live your life thinking like this. By "letting it be" you will skate through without causing yourself more harm! It may not make sense to you, or to 'humanly man' but God knows best!! Just let the LORD do his thing and continue with your life. Remain fervant in prayer, study scripture, and continue in fellowship with other Christians! Do not give up because you feel overwhelmed or conquered by the wiles of the devil!!

And if this has helped a SINGLE person in recovery who has the same daily struggles as I do than the purpose of this post was fulfilled!

Have a wonderful day! And one day at a time ladies and gents!
