• 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 went through awful frequent periodic depression and oppression for 30+ years. I would cry out to the Lord, deliver me, help, save me from this over and over, but found no answer. This heaviness made me feel hopeless, fearful, and unable to escape. I didn’t understand what was happening to me, but I knew somehow there was an answer because I knew God was my savior and a deliverer. A few months ago, so weary of it exerting it’s power over me, i saw the scripture verse.....

2 Timothy 1.7. For God has not given me a spirit of fear, but he has given me a SPIRIT OF POWER, of love, and a SOUND MIND.

It dawned on me. I have the Holy Spirit, a SPIRIT OF POWER!
GOD HAS GIVEN ME A SPIRIT OF POWER!
GOD HAS GIVEN ME A SPIRIT OF POWER!

I began to declare it with all my heart, and I was instantly delivered once and for all. No longer does it have power over me. Thank you so much God from the bottom of my heart.

It dawned on me. I have the Holy Spirit, a SPIRIT OF POWER!

Hallelujah you also let The Truth set you free. Isn't Jesus greatest giving us His Spirit to fight satan, our sinful flesh and this world? How can we loose what He has gained for us?

Please keep growing in the power of God's love. He is an awesome Saviour.

Thanks for sharing this good news and come and join us in celebrating His goodness over us.

Psalms 34
I will extol the Lord at all times;
his praise will always be on my lips.
I will glory in the Lord;
let the afflicted hear and rejoice.
Glorify the Lord with me;
let us exalt his name together.



I sought the Lord, and he answered me;
he delivered me from all my fears.
Those who look to him are radiant;
their faces are never covered with shame.
This poor man called, and the Lord heard him;
he saved him out of all his troubles.
The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him,
and he delivers them.



Taste and see that the Lord is good;
blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.
Fear the Lord, you his holy people,
for those who fear him lack nothing.
The lions may grow weak and hungry,
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing.
Come, my children, listen to me;
I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
Whoever of you loves life
and desires to see many good days,
keep your tongue from evil
and your lips from telling lies.
Turn from evil and do good;
seek peace and pursue it.



The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
and his ears are attentive to their cry;
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil,
to blot out their name from the earth.



The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them;
he delivers them from all their troubles.
The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.



The righteous person may have many troubles,
but the Lord delivers him from them all;
he protects all his bones,
not one of them will be broken.



Evil will slay the wicked;
the foes of the righteous will be condemned.
The Lord will rescue his servants;
no one who takes refuge in him will be condemned.
