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.

Ya i guess my hunger is for the ability to enjoy some kind of objective based activity to build teamwork while being Christian, and my inability to play video games has made that impossible nowDoesnt seem like it would be an impossible thing to put together.....we are all but doing that very thing here.
That which hurts you, shouldn't be done.Sorry if that is a lot but i just want to tell someone because this is getting not fun for me.
I actually have found a lot of fun in hobbies and my most fun thing to do is talk to people onlineThat which hurts you, shouldn't be done.
Getting away from that which unsettles you, is good. Long ago I too got away from games, it was getting to where it's nothing but gore, shooting and brutal murders.
I lost my love for chess, it's really fun. But my mind is tired easily.
Maybe subscribe to some online newspapers? Or there's free papers online (app called news reader) might help alliviate boredom.
Ya been reading more lately and that definitely helps, also did arts and crafts as well but found that everything I drew or made had an affect some positive some negative so I limit what I draw unless I want something. It's hard to explain but I need to get better at drawingWhat about things like reading and arts and crafts?
it's ok i don't mind repeating plus i forgot i answered thatBecause as I read further I saw that you had already addressed doing hobbies.
I hear you. Gaming cant be the only such activity, we are just unable to see that which we have never been aware of. Of course, if it is not of God then we are just trading one vice for another.....Ya i guess my hunger is for the ability to enjoy some kind of objective based activity to build teamwork while being Christian, and my inability to play video games has made that impossible now
Lol, welcome to my world! I almost remembered that I forgot that I almost remembered. As I get older I find my thoughts so scattered I cant even follow a thread of thought sometimes as I forget whre I was going mid sentence. Awkward to say the least.it's ok i don't mind repeating plus i forgot i answered that
true. I guess I just yearn for Heaven where people can fly and build and fellowship and read and explore space and talk to saints and fellowship with Jesus and rest and eat good food without worrying about sin or anything negative as a stupid stumbling block. I am so tired of this world and it's worldliness, but yet I want to make a difference while here and know there is much work to be doneI hear you.

I was thinking back to a time before home video games and I didn't have a TV at the time, and how I kept myself occupied with reading and making things out of clay and painting and so on. That and a lot of avid walkmg and bicycling. But as you say the weather curtails the the latter.Ya been reading more lately and that definitely helps, also did arts and crafts as well but found that everything I drew or made had an affect some positive some negative so I limit what I draw unless I want something.

We are told to hate this life so you may well be onto something there. Im with you on all the above, but I love to sing and Ive lately developed a desire to sing for God. So I will add that to the list above and wait my turn as well.true.

ya is your weather getting any better soon? i'm in california and the rain will stop by tomorrowI was thinking back to a time before home video games and I didn't have a TV at the time, and how I kept myself occupied with reading and making things out of clay and painting and so on.

However when I'm experienced periods of generalized anxiety, nothing really helps much.
thanks for the good conversation, and i know we are to hate our lives but i believe there is still good to be enjoyed here like Solomon talks aboutWe are told to hate this life so you may well be onto something there.

Hate in this regard is simply meant to not regard this life as all there is and forsake Christ to embrace it. Of course there is much to enjoy, just not to the detriment of our Christian pursuits.thanks for the good conversation, and i know we are to hate our lives but i believe there is still good to be enjoyed here like Solomon talks about
