• 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

Im gonna go check myself into the hospital this coming week. I barely leave the house the way it is now, and if I dont do something soon, Im gonna sink into an even deeper depression. Does anyone here not work, and feel like they are worthless because of it? Yet not have the motivation to be able to do anything about it? It all seems to be such a vicious cycle with me, i feel worthless so i get hopeless, and being hopeless makes me feel worthless, etc etc.....I cant stand the person I see in the mirror.

I can soo relate. Yes, do please call the hotline, your doc or go to the hospital.

I too am unable to work. I have been on disability for 12 years now. On my bad days I hate being a "LAzy slug on the government dole" and on my good days I feel like I should just get back to work and "quit taking advantage of the system". But when I honestly look at and assess my situation I know that right now I truly am not capable of routine work and stress and then I know I am truly thankful to have disabiblity when so many I know do not have it. Please know we do understand and have similiar feelings, but an honest look can help you get off break the cycle of hopelessness. Please make the call and get the help you need right now. My prayers are with you!

Depression is tough. Your taking a big step by checking in to the hospital. The first step is usually the biggest and sometimes the hardest. While in there the doctors can determin what is causing your depression and get you on the right medication. Take the time that your in there to reflect and relax. Keep God at the center and you can't do wrong. Your in my prayers.

*will be leaving thursday*
Dear Shadrach_

I sure hope that Thursday will not be to late!




My heart is with you! The last time I was in I felt great relief when the door was locked. That was also the start of getting the right meds. But it takes awhile to get things as they should be.



Just keep GOD on your mind and that GODS WORD says: " YOU SHALL NOT TAKE YOUR OWN LIFE "




That is the very thing that sustained me while in clinical depression. Because I had it all planned down to the last detail.




The pain seemed unbearable!!!



When they told me to lock away all the guns I couldn't even look or touch the gun I planned to use. I picked it up with a towell and handed it to my wife. I cannot begin to describe my feeling at that time.



Since then life has been good and I have a real LOVE for ya'lllllllllll.



ALWAYS REMEMBER:



XEven though you can't see Him, GOD is there!O
( click on the X and move to the O ) ( then feel who is around you )

Hi shadrach

In fact you are not worthless and hopeless.At least you can teach ESL to foreigners or do some homework.And when you are healed, you can do much more thing. In Depression cases,much of we thinking is not the truth, but the lie of Satan. I would pray for you. This forum is home of us BP patients.
