• 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

Just pray for me. I start a job tomorrow where I will be working on a long term assignment that might go permenent if I impress them. The temp agency who called me said, "Really impress them this is an important client for us." I was thinking...yeah no pressure or anything. I'm glad I will be bringing in money but im nervous. I'm sure that once I get in there and trained I will be okay about it all. Please pray that this job works out. I'm so tired of looking for a job.

thanks,

Melanie

Melanie,

If you lived near me, I would give you a great big HUG! You are loved, and I feel that we are more real here than anywhere else, I have talked about things no else knows on this site, I'll say one now, my wife & I got married a year & 2 months before our wedding, and nobody knows! Wow! How neat, I am being real as I can be, not even my "best" freinds know that! Of course we would still like you if we knew the "real" you.

And as Connie said, you already did change.

I am so sorry Allen made you feel bad about that 85lbs, The fact is that those weight to height charts are bananas! You would have no meat, you could offer to him to have a breast reduction, that would take some off LOL! (gee, hope that was as funny to women as it was to me, if not, please ignore that)

Allen needs to praise God every day that you have stayed with him through all this, that god has given you the strength, I know my wife would not ever be able to get over me having an affair, for that matter, it would be my funeral.

Please know how loved you are, please come here to vent, people like to hear you being able to express yourself

God Bless,

William

That is so good to hear, Melanie, I will keep praying for God to keep answering this prayer.

God is so awesome you guys! I am so blessed and unworthy of his continual love i do not know why i got these showerings of blessings from above but i have been praising him all day long. First I get a job. not an easy one as i found out on Friday which was semi-frustrating but that is because of my perfectionism and the way I always expect too much out of myself. So i understand why i felt the way i did on Friday also i got up in the middle of the night sick and throwing up and still went to work even though i felt so bad. i just knew calling in sick on the second day couldn't happen i would never be called back in. so i roughed it which showed some in my frustration. Anyways on to the blessings. My husband heard this week on the radio about a car company here in Dallas that was having an interesting promotion. (You kind of have to understand a little history on me.For the past year and a half now i have been without transportation due to my many accidents and lack of money for car payments and then bankruptsy. we have a car but only my hubby can drive it because we still have payments and my insurance is too high. besides it is his car and he does not like anyone to drive HIS car.) Well this car company has had this promo before and my mom was going to buy herself a car and get the free one for my sister's boyfriend. i went with them to look at the cars and he said he just wanted one to go from work to home which isnt far. well they wouldnt even go look at the last car to see if it even would run. they did not like the way it looked. so i called my mom this week and asked if we could go look early saturday morning. so we went she found the perfect car for her but did not show it to sales and was really good at bargaining with them she was ready to just walk away from it. I found 2 of the free cars i liked but was willing to take any of them. the funny thing is the Taurus was better then the other one(i didnt even look at what type it was because i didnt care. i just want to be able to drive 10 miles to work and home. mom and allen both wanted me to have the Taurs because it is so much better. I got the Taurus and it's a 1998 white with blue interior. i had to febreeze it for the smell but it smells good now. it has a sun roof(ive never had that!) and power locks, steering and windows. We only had to pay TTL and it ended up being 200.00 so i told my mom we will pay her for that when we can in a couple of monthes and she is okay with that. 200.00 and i will own that car! it does have 119,000 miles on it but i dont need it to go on trips or anything. just to work and back. the reason this is a good thing is because my mom gave her 1998 Ford Mustang to Mindy(my sister who's been using my dads extra car and he has been putting a lot of pressure on her to give it back and making her feel guilty for not coming all the way out here and visiting. she's in college and works 2 jobs for goodness sake.) so tonight we gave him his car back I drove my car home, Mindy drove her car home and mom has her car too. so everyone's been blessed. mom is the one with the 300.00 payments per month but she loves that car! and she made a good buy. we looked both cars up on the internet and she got 15,000 worth of cars for 10,800 i think that's right. i think it was 15,000 it was close to that at least.

im so happy now! yay God! i was watching the Billy Grahm thing on TV last night and the News boys came on and sang "He Reigns" I started crying because i was so tired but i love God so much and the song was really touching for the first time in a long time. Today on the way home they played it on the radio and i was praising him because i felt like he was speaking to me saying "Here my child I will take care of you always because i love you." he answered my prayers from a long time...a job and a car again. to get the chance to start over with all my mistakes the car wrecks, quitting the jobs or getting fired and the suicide atrempts. he is trusting again and that is so incredible to me that he would forgive me and give me another chance to make him proud.

I am doing better now. thank you for praying for me. i will have hard times ahead but his will not my own will always happen and his will is always best for me not my own will....

:clap: HE REIGNS :bow:

PTL!!!! What a wonderful thing God and your Mom has done for you.

Hey if you were talking about God givning you another chance to be rpoud of you, I just wanted to let you know that He is proud of you, for while we were yet sinners He died for us, so even in the depths of our sin and depravity He sees us (Christians) through the blood of Christ. As far as God is concerned, it is a done deal, you stand approved, accepted, a beloved daughter of the King of Kings. he is not up there saying, look, there she goes again. He is saying look, see my daughter, I am so proud of her!!! It's hard to believe when we are living down here in this world where everything seems to go wrong and our perfectionist self like to tell us it is all our fault, when truth is, it's okay, God's got it all figured out.

So bless you and praise God, for the car, the job and everything else!!!!
