• 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

Most Of the time I can go weeks on end without getting a phone call, message, or visit, from another person. I have no personal relationships with anyone. It has even come to my attention recently that I matter so little to even my own siblings that people that they have known for quite some time didn't even know I existed. It has been like this all my life. No friends have ever dropped in to see how I was, I've been divorced twice, I've only broken up with one person in my life, No one calls on my birthday, no calls on holidays, As a matter of fact My first wife left myself and my 3 children, had nothing to do with us for 4 years, stole my children after marrying a wealthy man and winning the kids, she died years later and the 2 youngest decided to stay with the man and have nothing to do with me with no calls from them. Though I'm a man and a sinner, I've had more than my share of mistakes, I don't treat people wrong, I don't ignore people or cheat.I truly feel like nothing. It's not like I feel hated, I know that I could die and no one would ever know. Nobody ever has me on their mind or thinks about me and it hurts and I don't know what I did to deserve it. To know that I am never so much as a fleeting though in anyone's mind is a painful feeling. Can anyone tell me If this is God's plan? I know that God doesn't want you to have anyone before him and in the end days satan will tempt you by putting you loved ones before you so I keep thinking it might be easier for me if I just didn't have any but it really does hurt to not be loved or thought of by anyone ever and to be all alone. It says in Genesis man isn't meant to be alone but yet I am.

Oh man, I'm sorry about that.

I don't believe God's plan is to make anyone miserable for misery's sake. I do believe that some of us are being let to fall down, so that we could know God better and how much we need Him. Also for other people - when they see that someone has nothing but still lives in faith, it's makes a great impression. I applaud you for still treating people right, even if you aren't treated right. It's inspiring, and I only hope that one day someone will show you love.

Said a prayer for you.

Genesis says that its not good for man to be alone. The apostle Paul never married but he had a lot of brothers and sisters in Christ, and he had the Lord, so he wasn't alone. You have us brother. :)
