• 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.

I don't know whether this is the appropriate thread in which to post this link to an article in The New York Times, "My Ex-Gay Friend". If it is not the appropriate place, would the moderators please place it where it belongs?

Here is a secular newspaper with an online edition presenting an article, written by a homosexual, about a friend who was a former homosexual activist but who is now attending a small Bible school in Wyoming after being converted to Christ.

There are a number of cynical aspects to this article, but it provides some insight into some of the struggles of homosexuals who are changed by the living Christ.

Although it's a rather lengthy article, I found the read worthwhile. I'm a long-term general and family counsellor.

In Christ, Oz
