• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Hello all. I know it's been a while since I've posted. I've been a little out of touch with myself lately and caught in that "Boo-Radily" moment. I'm antzy, unstoppable at anything, out of touch, mind goin a thousand thoughts per second, on that natural high that has me going- going-gone. While my mind is on speed dial, my body is so confused I don't know whether to sleep or stay up all night. :swoon:
I have been in this state for a few weeks now and am out of Equetro again and just goin on the Seroquel alone. Missed my last pdoc appt. cause the bank account that is associated with my insurance is whacked. (Not my doings, mistake at the bank) Until this is straightened out, I can't see the doc or get my meds.
The 24th of this month will be the 2-year anniversary of my only half-brother's passing. I had a terrible time with this last year and am hoping I won't dwell on it so much this year. I have come to terms that, though he is missed, I need to cherish those who are still with me and just hold on to the memories of those who are gone.
Considering I am already Boo-Radily and floating through the best I can, I don't need the extra stuff to make things worse.
Aaaanywho, I just wanted to give an update and let y'all know I haven't forgot about ya. Just trying to get through this.
Thanks for listening.
:hug: s and :angel: :kiss: es!!

I'm guessing that Boo Radley is the character in 'To Kill a Mockingbird'? I believe I do undertand where you are coming from. You are loved and received here. Come back often.

I just prayed for you a few minutes ago after 1st reading this. Then I finally posted after I figured out what Boo-Radley meant.

Hang in there.

Anniversaries can be miserable.
Sometimes it is hard to remember that our emotional malfunctions aren't necessarily reality but little chemicals in our brain and nothing more.

As far as anniversaries...have you ever had counseling for things? Writing can help a lot, like write a letter goodbye to him. A therapist would know how to best direct writing exercises, guiding you through the feelings rather than opening them up and then getting lost in them.
I have been in therapy for bout 10 years now. I am a writer. Poetry is my main thing. I wrote a poem to my bro last year at this time. Thing is, it made things worse. I was in an episode for three months.
Thank you for the kind words.
:hug:s and :angel: :kiss:es!!

Honestly, I never did read "To Kill a Mockingbird" LOL I've had other people ask me the same thing.
I just refer boo-radily to the "high-state, all emotions running together, thousand thought per second, don't know which end is up, becoming broken" state of mind.
Boo-radily is much more simple. :p
Thanks for the prayers and support.
:hug:s and :angel: :kiss:es!!
