• 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.

feeling pretty down and anxious today. My fiance was in for the weekend and it's always hard when she leaves. Plus, financially i'm in a tight spot and monday's are always a little hard just to get going. my medication has been helping the last few days, but just feel really bad this morning. i don't know if anyone really reads this and puts to much thought into it, but if you're reading this, a quick prayer is always appreciated. thanks. :sigh:

Just wanted to say i finally had a relatively 'good' day this past sunday - the sermon at church was awesome. monday was difficult again, and today i'm doing a little better. It's been a struggle, but i feel the last few days have been slowly getting better! Praise the Lord!

Hey all :) I'm new in here too, so hi to everyone here :wave:

Well....I was OK when I woke up, but have been going downhill since.....got my daughter ready to go off on vacation with her dad (we separated about 7 months ago) and know I'm gonna miss her badly, so that started the slide....and since then, well, I don't even really know why I've started struggling again - the usual feelings, guilt, despair, fear....Started to have a panic attack earlier, which I asked the Lord to take away from me as soon as I realised what was happening, and thank goodness, He answered my prayers as it was short-lived.

I started the day (after I saw my daughter off) on a fairly positive note - made a conscious decision to have a day just for me. Went out for coffee at my fave coffee shop, did some shopping, decided to buy myself some flowers, nice magazines and a small box of chocs to spoil myself. Came home and BAM....straight into panic attack and feeling bad....:sigh: Trying to fight it though. Gonna go for a nice long bath with some nice smelly bubble bath, read my mags and wait for my partner to call.

Finally also made the decision to go talk to my doctor about how I've been recently. Made an appointment, but the earliest I could get (with the doctor I want to speak to) is Friday 20th...hey ho...

OK, enough from me :blush:

God bless all :)
