• 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

I've been a member of CF for a couple of months but i've only just found this depression forum so i thought i'd say hello :wave:

A little about myself.....I have depression as a side effect of having hyperthyroidism, things got really bad last year and i was suicidal but i'm now on medication and my other illnesses are more under control at the moment so things have improved, i'm just praying that i continue to get healthy again :prayer:

Depression is a horrible thing to suffer from and i can sympathise with you all who are going through it

God Bless

I'm sorry to see that you are suffering, Angel. If you'll Trust Him though, you can be certain that He will bring you out of it and show you things you've never seen b4. :) Sometimes, as suffers of depression, it can be hard to admit that in this touch-and-go (seemingly sometimes cold) world...however, it's always good to take a second to step outside of our little box and try and look at things from God's perspective...as best as we can. Sometimes it's hard to see ourselves from the outside...but that's how God sees us. (Sometimes it's really hard for me to see this as well.) Anyways, I sympathize with you and your problems, because I have the same ones (depression) as well. Take care and God bless.

Angel,

First I am so glad you arent depressed at the moment! I will pray for you to stay strong and healthy. I had some very bad depression for about a year. I was even on medication, so your not alone out there. If you ever need someone to talk to PM me I would be honored.


:prayer:
