• 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.

I hate counselors I had 2 that were terrible I won’t go into detail but lets just say I never was going back no matter how bad I got I could make it on my own.

then things got out of hand I was deep in depression i was drinking and drugging my self in to a pit i couldn’t get out and then my sister got committed to a inpatient facility my like spun out of control. i would spend hours in the bathroom at work crying and bleeding then i was talking to this guy i was sort of sleeping with my manager and i told him a week before that my sister was a cutter and he asked why i never said anything i told him i cut. he was appalled and he told me if i didn't go to counseling he’d let my mom know. so i had two weeks to make an appointment.
i found my self in the office of Gina Baker. i thought ill jus tell her some sad story get some pills and get out well God had different plans. By the end of our appointment i had told her a lot but not all.

Soon i had spilled my whole story about my bi polar mother who kicked me out about the pastor and his wife who turned there back on me and my dad who didn’t even know me.

Well now i have made my last appointment, i am going to college this fall and have stopped drinking am no longer sexually active, i still struggle with drugs and cutting but we all have our demons. i have also forgiven so many and am working on the rest...
