• 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.

  • 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

kaiya, sometimes it sure feels like it. :hug:... it depends on what is happening. i know one thing, that this piece of our life is only a part of the puzzle that makes up who we are. other things about us also make up who we are. i'd say you are a very sweet young lady facing some struggles. i'd also say you are more understood than you know. or feel. bless your heart. :hug:

thanks, my aunt is also bi-polar and my cousins were making fun of her today. Most people call my aunt a lier, fake and all kinds of stuff, I see her lost and probley lonely, alot like me, sadly I'm not close to her. I just hope no one sees me as crazy, I can really be a pain in the butt alot of times.

don't let mean spirited or hurtful people lable you or your aunt. i'm bipolar and schitz.... i truelly understand. it is hard to think good and praiseworthy things. the bible tells us to find the good things and dwell on them. you need to try this and keep practicing it. :hug:

4Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 8Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. philippians 4:4-8

:hug: well, i'm quite a nut sometimes :sorry: ... i was even rejected as a moderator before i made it this far. i had to apply a few times before they were sure i could think clearer and not have problems that interfered. i still have problems though. i have to take good care of myself and surround myself with support and with meds.
i even see a therepist once aweek. whatever it takes, i'll do. even calling crisis hotlines. they know me well.
