• 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.

I know many who SI, but it seems like there is never any relief for me. The only thing that I can do to feel better is cut. I am so weak. I tried talking to my family and they just yelled and said they did not have the time. I don't know what to do.

My goodness! I'm sorry your parents aren't getting professional help for themselves. That's a lot of the problem. You probably feel like they need to change so you can change. Are you using that Christian hotline? You need to use it before you cut yourself. You have to help yourself. You aren't alone. God always cares about you. Aren't those hotlines like a substitue for cutting? You have to keep calling. Are you on any anti-depressant? Depression makes people feel like failures.

God bless.

I hope I can find this thread again.
