• 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.

Hey there hun awww thats so sad its really hard to leave someone you were dating this long do you guy live together does he live close by? l was in a bad situation my ex bf l broke up with him. He was my first long term bf l was with him for a while he was very abusive and controlling. But l did l broke up with him cried for a while but after a while l felt great you can do this my ex bf started as a nice guy l really cared about him and loved him. And felt happy around him after a few months he started to beat me up and not let me see my friends. He lived with his own grandma and would beat her up. It was horrible l still talk to her every now and then l'm not trying to scare you he might start as controlling and start beating you up. It might lead to that you should get of that situation my ex did the same. He sounds like a horrible guy for your saftey maybe stay at a close friends place for a while so he won't find out where you are. Everything will be ok if you need to talk to someone let me know

God bless you

I did get married to a man that i meet in church my first love cuz i was shy to have boyfriends when i was younger thought he was the one buuuut cus we meet in church but he was always getting cranky upset and then started to get verbally abusive to me and every one around him. I cried allot I stayed for 9 years I think. And every day i said god will help cure u. And he said when how. Eventually I had a nervice brake down and stopped serving god and i tried to kill my self. But getting admitted to the psychiatric ward for 3 weeks and a 20 day day program. And staying over at my mom friends place crying but eventually I got over him 2 years later. 2 years later that i meet my new guy I ended up moving in the forth year and I live with him still of 8 years. And he's all ways had girly thoughts dressing up like a lady and stuff.and I said at least he's not my ex yelling and making me feel small. But 3 years ago he started to get controlling I went to a garage sale to sell some stuff and my man was camping and he came home only to say we're r u why arnt u here like u said. And I thought he was coming back the next day. But so what I was making money for us and I'll be home a bit later so I turned off my cell. He ended up texting my friend calling me every name in the bad book. Any ways I don't have them as friends no more and they r mad I can't come over to viset and stuff. So now I'm here aaaagain seeing a therapist in the hospital every week and she may help me get over him I'm scared to leave in away cuz I'm use to beeing with a guy. But I noticed I'm nervice around people and my boss scares me and when I'm on the transit I'm all ways hoping no one bothers be. I studder when I talk some times when I talk. And I think they r telling me I need anxiety disorder meds. But my whole life I now there god and yet I keep back sliding and now I made it worse falling to anxiety disorders do to not being living along and staying in church. Well I have to give me a chance to get back and not slide if at all possible. I need friends but Christians ones more so so i can try and stick to this. I need a good church to. And I thank god it might all end and I'm back and have a second chance. Well I think I top the longest note written lol. Thax again for reading and giving encuragement.

Awww you don't need people like that in my life l went through some horrible problems in my life too after that abusive bf l had l got raped shortly after and was sleeping with so many different guys to ease the pain. Then l felt happy l was getting back at my ex but later on in life l felt horrible. l hurt myself too starting doing drugs and it was a horrible part of my life. Is there any family members you can stay with? just by looking at you your a beautiful girl and seem very nice you don't need to put up with any of that abuse. If you need me at all you can add me to face book at melanie low if you need a friend l will be here for you. l haven't gone to church in a while my husband and l went to bible we both didn't feel comfortable people were smarter then us and didn't feel in place there. If you need me l'm here
