• 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

Nikki, after reading your posts, I again would encourage you to use this time to get some help!

You really need to talk to someone and get yourself out of that situation. You are in danger, sweetie!

As I mentioned in an earlier post, a teacher, a minister, or a counselor would be legally mandated to help you if you told them! Or go directly to the police now that you're out of the house for a few days...

Your story touches my heart. I'm sorry you are going through these changes, Nikki. Noone deserves that stuff. I don't understand why some mothers and fathers do that. Perhaps, it is becaause they had been abused, like I heard before. I don't know. That story in the other post made me wince. In it, he was mad just because Nikki drew a picture on the pavement. And that's wrong, in itself. :(

Here's what surprised me, Nikki -- your father actually kicked you out of your house. There are times I really wished my father would kick me out. I kept trying to leave; kept calling my friends to pick me up from home and he would knock the phone out of my hands. When I tried to sneak out as he was showering, he dragged me back in. I remember hiding in my room with the door closed, terrified that he would come in and haul me out -- I was never allowed to keep my door closed. I simply wished I could leave my house. But I couldn't.

Please, please tell someone you're close to. Just a friend who's lives close enough and who you trust enough to pick you up from your house if you really want to leave, if even for a little while. If it makes you more comfortable, ask your school nurse to treat your wounds -- that's what I did. Or go to a neighborhood clinic, any clinic. Just remember, if it has to get worse before it gets better, at least it'll get better.

:cry: Sound like several of us here are in some serious need of prayer! :prayer: My heart goes out to all of you ladies. I know what you are going through. My question is why is this happening more and more? :sigh:Sexual Abuse I mean. I pray that you get help all of you who are currently in this state. Don't be like me and let it go. Please get out! Please get help. I will pray for strength for those of you who are "stuck" right now.:angel:


Psalm 40
1 I waited patiently for the LORD;
he turned to me and heard my cry.


2 He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
and gave me a firm place to stand. 3 He put a new song in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to our God.

Sweetie, as the others have shown, there's plenty of us here who are very worried about you and are keeping you in our prayers. If your father is abusing you, you really do need to get help. Things won't get better until you finally speak to someone who can help and there's many people out there who are willing to help you. You just need to speak up!

I'm praying for you dear, may you forever be in the Lord's hands and may He always protect you.
