• 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

I've come down with something today and have just felt miserable. I seem to be getting worse instead of better. Nothing to do with my OCD. Just got whatever is going around now, I guess.

Anyway, if you could please, say a prayer for me. I just want to feel better again and not be miserable.

Thank you. I really appreciate it and I believe that your prayers are working. I've had a rough week. I've come down with tonsillitis and I've spent my days dealing with OCD (like normal) and my nights gasping for breath wondering if I'm going to make it through another night. The tonsillitis has really exacerbated my asthma. At any rate, I believe I'm going to make it. As I was gasping for breath last night I was listening to a good ol' song called 'He Giveth More Grace'. Folks, life isn't easy. Period. It can be so hard actually. We all know this all too well already. But, I truly believe that God gives us just enough grace to get through the current day. If OCD has taught me anything it has taught me to live one day at a time. The thought of tomorrow overwhelms me. But, I'm starting to realize that with God on side I can make it through today.

Romans 2:29 "No, a man is a Jew if he is one inwardly; and circumcision is circumcision of the heart, by the Spirit, not by the written code. Such a man's praise is not from men, but from God."

Such a man's praise is not from men, but from God.

Luke 7:9 "When Jesus heard this, he was amazed at him, and turning to the crowd following him, he said, "I tell you, I have not found such great faith even in Israel."
