  • 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

Dear Blair,
When I have been depressed I found doctors just wanted to pop pills in me and I know they can help some people, but not me.
What I always felt I needed was someone to talk about my problems...
I wonder if you would like to talk about your pain?
It isn't easy , I know cos' pain can be a big conflict...
Let me know, you can use the personal mail if you prefer.

Eventually I asked myself " what do you really believe in that can't be wrong.... and amazed myself with finding that the answer was right there in my own heart....
that love within is something we can really believe in absolutely, we cannot think of it as wrong at all.
this simple truth is such a pleasure and reassurance to me
that I have never looked back again toward darkness since discovering it, but only pray and look forward to making it a little more of my life with others each day....
doing something loving is a great way to feel more alive and appreciate life....

Only other advice I can offer is that when in my darkest times I found by sad experience that doing ANYTHING that I could manage to do [not easy to find when depressed] is far far better than doing nothing ...and often stopped me going deeper down into darkness.

my love to you, hope something helps, many here are obviously sending their love.
