• 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

Jesus has put this on my heart to help you all!
I know that I have been there before. There is an answer to the tears, feelings of giving up, the "knot" that is in your throat. The answer is Jesus!!
When ever you feel like giving up or you feel like your life just SUCKS escape to a quiet area where no one is around, no music, noise or other distractions. Here is a list of some examples:
  • bedroom
  • a walk on the bike trail
  • the lake
  • the beach
  • a quiet warm bath
  • on the deck
  • in your car
  • MOSTLY in a church
Listen to the silence. :prayer: Then pray, NOT words mind you just let your heart POUR out to Jesus. Oh let me tell you, you may need a box of tissues but it is worth it. When you are praying in this silence just feel His arms wrap around you. Feel the Lords warmth. You will stop crying because you will feel the presents of the Lord. What a FABULOUS feeling to know that there is someone out there who loves you 24/7...that is Jesus Christ!!:amen:
This works people, it does!!
It has worked for me numerious of times!:thumbsup: Peace be with you...once again please know that I give this advice ONLY because I have been there folks, I have!!!
