• 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.

When anxiety high. Cant. Thnkn of Er 2nite.
For you and your babies sake you need to try hard to stop the thoughts you are having, as the poster said put your mind on happy thoughts and remember Jesus is there. Going to the ER may be a good idea. Remember your baby for positive thoughts for the future. Keep your mind stay on him.
You are his special child.:groupray:

That's not always the case. They are there to help you to health as well as your babies well being. Their intent is to heal you so you can take care of baby. Get your self well please, for that baby. They are there to help you.
God bless you.
If possible and you don't go to the er, turn a radio or tv on and your thoughts will be erased by the other thoughts from the tv or radio.

I'm so sorry you're struggling!! :( It sounds like you have a lot going on. That would be difficult for anyone to cope with. And OCD can make everything seem so much worse. I've had harm OCD in the past, too, and it is a really difficult theme to deal with. The good news with OCD is that it IS possible to learn to manage it, and to find joy and freedom again. I've had it since I was a child, and have had many ups and downs with it, but recently I've learned a lot about how to manage it, and it has helped so much. Have you been diagnosed with any particular mental disorders? Do you think you might be also struggling with postpartum depression?

We're a similar age, it looks like! My heart goes out to you. Don't give up, please. You won't regret fighting your way through this, and things will, and I repeat, WILL, get better. Please feel free to pm me if you need to talk. If you are feeling suicidal, please call the national suicide hot line at 1-800-273-8255, or text HOME to 741741.

I'm going to bed now, but I will check back here in the morning. You are loved and cared for. Please reach out to whomever you need to, and get the help that you need to get. Talk to you in the morning! <3

Olivet, bless your heart. I was reminded of back when I was trying to raise a baby by myself. I lost a job. Things got really bad and it was so hard. You need help. Maybe an Aunt or a really good friend that you trust could help with the baby so that you can see a doctor and maybe apply for some monetary assistance, food stamps, etc. Please don't give up. You may be able to get on Medicaid or something to have an easier way to get medication. It will get better. I'm living proof. I'm here so many years later. Is the babies dad helping you?
