• 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

chronic illness

I have a chronic illness and I just wanted to ask help because I don't know if anyone else is in my shoes. i feel alone. This seems to be taking over my life and I keep feeling sicker and sicker. :cry: Maybe because I think about it too much or maybe I am getting worse. I am confused. i just want to talk to some1 that will understand or offer any advice.

 

Edited to say I don't feel like going into detail about what my illness is because it is kind of personal. =/ I just wanted to talk to some1 that will understand ty bye
 
My prayers are with you luckie, and you are just that, Lucky. God has placed a seed in your heart and he understands you better then anyone else, you can talk to Him anytime. If you would like feel free to PM, I would love to talk to you more about your illness, God, love, life, you or anything that comes up. I will be honest with you I may not have the capacity to fully understand what you are feeling, but I have two shoulders, two ears, and an open heart, they are here for those that need them.

Dear Lord,
I sit here and pray for my friend, for the pain that she feels and the hurt she endures, It is your pain as well if we as yor children suffer you do to. Lord lift her up today and for the rest of the week give her a new light so that she may view her battle from higher ground, and along side with you. I ask that the things she feels she places at your feet and gives them up to you, and the love and grace that you give her move mountains, or heal pain, as your will de done. Lead us out of temptation for it is so easy to think you are not there, but reveal your self to her, and let her know that she is never and will never be alone.

:wave: Hi, Chronic illness is dreadful but can be learned to live with I don't say that in a flippant way because I know I've done it. I don't know what yours is but if you want talk to someone you are welcome to pm me.

Luckiecharms, you will pick up, sometimes when we dwell on a problem it does get worse but often we can't help it because the problem takes over our lives.

But remember God is in there with you He loves you dearly and doesn't want to see you hurting. Trust Him to help you and give you peace.

In the meantime I will be praying for you, take care.

Love Laura:pink: :hug:

And because i cant do some things normal people can. =***( If it wasnt for this i would feel like a load off my shoulders and maybe be happy. its been years since I have ever been truly happy or felt true happiness.

Pray about this. Really. I'm not saying that you will magically be healed and life will suddenly be like a field of flowers, but pray. When you start praying, something happens. I just want you to know that what happens may be something you didn't expect. God is funny like that. He's not predictable. A lot of people think He is. Anyway, give him a shot.
He hasn't let me down yet.

Father, we come before you, in Jesus Name,

Lord I ask that you bless the precious little child of yours,

Strengthen her, and let her see her 'worth' through Your eyes.

Fill her with Your Love and Understanding, and allow her to

know her potential, as Your Child.

Bless Her and give her the Peace that Passes all Understanding,

And we give You All the Praise and Glory.
