• 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.

  • Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • 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

I encourage all of you to keep fighting the good fight of faith. I know your pain and suffering and how it endures. I have came out of it a better person more Christ like. I wish we didn't stumble but we do. I suggest that you find a good doctor and sample out SSRI's to see if they help. If you havn't already and your OCD is waxing and waning then prepare your self to give up all to worry's to the Lord for He cares for you. Praying for you guy's!!:amen:

Thanks Dabro,
I agree with you. The very thorn that we fear ends up being the means by which we experience more of His grace. "In our weaknesses, His strength is being perfected." I love that it says IN our weaknesses - not out of them. He is polishing us so that He can, we hope see his reflection in us.
You sound better today. I'm encouraged by that my friend.
Thank you for your continued compassion for all of us OCD'ers.
