• 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 would like anyone's advice of what to do with my friend Michael, he is in a children['s home on his own, his dad died when he was eight and he has bad behavioural problems i befriended him last september and he has been trying to cope with his situation very well when a few weeks ago we heard that he twin and best friend, Martin, who lived in London had been hit by a motorbike and killed, this was very shocking to all of us and i dont know what mike must have been going through, his behavioural problems have got worse and i wanna ask anyone if they could tell me what to do for him and how to react to him i just dont know what to do!:(

Just be his friend. Let him talk to you when he needs to talk and just be a shoulder to cry on. Just realize that grief can last a long time (years) and try not to take it too personally if he doesn't want to talk or just wants to be alone for a while.
