• 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

Ok from the time i was 16 to 18 i had a really extreme eating disorder, i'm not sure if i was considered bullemic or anorexic because i would eat sometimes, but it would only be like a couple of crackers and then i'd do about 500 crunches and go and throw them up. I met someone at 18 and he helped me along with God of course to stop. We got married when i was 19 and when i was 20 we had a daughter. While i was pregnant i got toxemia and gained over 100 lbs, and have had a very hard time losing it. Here recently i have been very tempted to start making mayself vomit again, and have actually on occasion. I've been losing weight on my own by drinking nothing but water, exsercizing, and eating healthy. I'm about 2-3 sizes away from my target size. I don't go by weight, because instead of living on the scale i'm terrified of the scale. Anyhow i guess what i'm trying to say in all of this is to just pray for me that God gives me the strength not to "cheat", and continue to lose weight in a healthy way even though it may take longer. Thnx for letting me vent and God bless everyone.
