• 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

You can make it another day. Try to get through one moment at a time. Keep praying to Jesus to help you and believe there is hope for you. Not having the meds can make you feel awful and once you get them you will be better, hopefully. I have been there, too, and things got better for me and they can for you, too. Keep praying to Jesus.

Hi Lily.
I'm sorry you're feeling so low.
I have severe OCD and anxiety problems. Last year I nearly had a breakdown. I just couldn't cope...and now? Well I can't lie and say I'm completely healed but I am doing better. I'd lost all hope last year. I thought that was it for me but I was wrong. I'm still here and looking back it's amazing to see how far God has brought me. Be encouraged by mine and other's testimonies. You can do this!

Don't give up.
You mentioned having a husband and friends. Think about them. They need you!
I know it's too late here in the UK to go for a walk but is there anything else you could do to distract yourself or make yourself feel better?
Pray, read, listen to worship music?

I've just said a prayer for you.

iI know how you feel. Even though I donnt have the guts to end my life, I would pray countiniously for death. Some people sees life as a good and precious, as for me I see life as a trap. Some day I will die and that is the fact that everyone knows or fails to respect.
I too am married and I have kids who live with their mother most of the time. No one gets me as how I am feeling. I ask GOD as to why I was ever born. I have in the past month to follow Jesus as a last means to help find hope in the world. I have never been a much into praying nor reading in the bible, but I am doing this as a hail mary, because if this dont work then to me it repersents that their isnt a God and what is the point of living.
