• 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

Hi there everyone. I haven't been blogging for a good 6-months... I have been seeing my doctor who prescribed me with Prozac, which helped me gaining back good control of my mind. I have also been seeing a good christian counsellor, who helped me realise the negative way i see myself, and to help me to see myself as a lovable person. My value does not depend on how others treat me. (or have treated me). She is on holiday at the moment, and before she went off, she left me some 'homework' to do - to read the following books while she is off:

1. Boundaries ~by Henry cloud
2. Christ Empowered Living ~by Selwyn Hughes

I am reading 'Boundaries' at the moment, and I find it a REALLY great help! I am learning about myself and my relationships with others more. I really recommend this book for all of you. Hope it helps you also...

I really thank God for giving me such a loving and caring counsellor. (I wish I could be one some days so that I can help others as well...)

With love,
Winnie

I thank god, and I'm happy to hear you have found some medicine to help you recover. and that you have a good couselor. I have recently been suggested by my psychiatrist that I try prozac since it's one of the medicine's that I havn't taken, so hopefully I will get some positive results that you have had.GOD bless, and prays for you.Daryl
