• 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.

Will be praying. I am proud of you, I know this is tough. I was addicted to alcohol and pills for about 8 years. I recently got clean from all of it about 6 months ago. Just keep praying for God to deliver you from the addiction.

Three days is great, keep on going! Trust in God. Give it all to Him.

Hi guys...I'm still here...feeling pretty rough, weak, sweaty, upset stomach and irritable.

However, I am on day four now, and this will pass, I know. This is the worst I have felt so far.

It is the first time I have been clean for over 10 years...

Please keep praying for me

Love Violet xxxxx

God bless you AngelDove xxxxx

I am so lucky to be part of a wonderful community such as CF.

I am on day five now and feeling marginally better, although the cravings are strong...I have no pills available anyway so that's that problem solved (HeeHee!)

I have been addicted to amphetamine and nicotine in the past, if I can get through that, with God's help, I can do this...

Thank you guys for all your continuing love and encouragement.

Big big hugs xxxx

EXCELLENT! It's about 2 weeks now, right? Keep plugging along, it's a long haul but with God's help you can stay clean. Just don't give up before the miracle happens.

What kind of real world support do you have? Going to any 12-step groups? I got a WHOLE lot of good out of NA.

You're in my prayers.
