• 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.

Sometimes I feel not good enough because of my past abuse. I wonder if I am less than other people. Does anyone else ever feel this way? I feel that I am a broken person and that I am different from other people. I sometimes feel God does not love me.

Check this out:

"Sometimes I feel like God does not love me."

Note that it is you who sometimes feels like that. God never "feels" like that. God's love for you is constant, never failing, not based upon "feelings." His outreach to you is based upon His perfection, as revealed in Jesus Christ, the perfect sacrifice for every sin, every negative thought you may experience. Therefore, move your "feelings" over into the Faith, Hope and Trust column! "Trust," in God's Word, is accurately translated as "calm, confident assurance." He offers it to you 24/7/365, never-ending Love.
