• 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.

Hi.. i just lost an ex classmate of mine.. i feel a lot of regret for not getting to know her better.. the last time i met her was 4 yrs ago and she died on friday... it feels weird because i didn't know her properly.. i left a school for another school in Singapore after 3 years of studying in that school and it was only during those 3 years tat i managed to get to know her.. honestly i feel like im being a wimp.. i should be thinking about her family and how they are so sad about it instead of thinking about how i should have done this done that... please pray for her family.. they are not Christians.. i wish i could know where she went though.. i dont think she was Christian because they gave her a Taoist Buddhist like funeral... i wish i could know shes happy. but there are no answers... anyway i probably just am wading in self pity.. please pray that i pull out of self pity or something.. thank u.

blankgirl - it's not self-pity...it's regret and it is one of the enemy's best tools. There is no way we can get to know all of the people we meet in this world. Use this as an opportunity to talk to God about how to balance those that you get to know and those who remain an aquaintance. God bless you hon - our Lord will make it better, He promises!
