• 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.

Hi Ruth thanks for putting this great post on.
What has helped me is getting out of the house. When i was very low and locked into depression I txted my friend the other day a friend asked me round. Praise God. I had to get in my car at literaly go, which is not always easy to do I know. But even though I was still down, it helped being around people, definately.

I write myself a to-do list and focus on getting done those activities I had planned. I also enjoy cooking my family a nice meal that takes alot of preparing to do in order to get my mind off of things. And if all of that fails, I cuddle into bed and I read a good book.
