• 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

My name is Nicky and some people hurt me using God when I was 9, It only lasted a couple of years - NOT a whole childhood and nothing to do with my lovely family. I let some bad stuff happen to me and now I am really needing God to find me so that He might forgive me and so I can say sorry for what I let them do in His name. I don't know if what 'they told me about God is true or not. I'm rubbish at talking and havn't been able to cry since I was little. I'm not allowed to talk about this 'stuff' and I'm not allowed to touch a bible or enter a church or something really awful will happen to me but I really need God to find me

Sorry I didn't know any other way to say it or even if I'm IN THE RIGHT PLACE! Thank-you for listening.x

Hi Nicky. It's great to meet you and welcome to CF.

You are included in God's awesome plan of grace, mercy, forgiveness, and love. He is big enough to care about you with all your problems and scars. He is with you in every emotional battle you face. He will guide you to a greater understanding of who He is and how He can save you. He is the way, the truth, and the life in every situation you are facing.

God cares about you and He is intimately aware of what you are going through. Don't be anxious, sister. The Lord has heard your cry. He is coming to help you!

These are Scriptures God put on my heart to give you.

Isaiah 54
4 “Fear not; you will no longer live in shame.
Don’t be afraid; there is no more disgrace for you.
You will no longer remember the shame of your youth
and the sorrows of widowhood.
5 For your Creator will be your husband;
the Lord of Heaven’s Armies is his name!


Jeremiah 15:20
They will fight against you like an attacking army,but I will make you as secure as a fortified wall of bronze.They will not conquer you,for I am with you to protect and rescue you.I, the Lord, have spoken!

Jeremiah 29:14
I will be found by you,” says the Lord. “I will end your captivity and restore your fortunes.

Isaiah 49
25. For thus says the Lord: Even the captives of the mighty will be taken away, and the prey of the terrible will be delivered; for I will contend with him who contends with you,

Isaiah 43
1. Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine.
2. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned or scorched, nor will the flame kindle upon you.

3. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior;

4. Because you are precious in My sight and honored, and because I love you,
