• 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

The shame and the guilt you feel is not warranted. IT does NOT belong to you and it simply is not yours to carry.

You look your guilt and blame in the old eye and tell it

"I recognize you devil, first you rape me then want ME to carry the load of guilt and shame? I will not carry your dirt any more. I was bought by a price!

I am owned by Jesus my Lord and Savior . Guilt and shame you have no place with me. I will not wear you, accept you or take you into my soul. I did nothing wrong. I did NOTHING wrong. I claim my power back in the name of Jesus Christ. I wash away the dirt of the past, for which I am not responsible and I wear it NO more. I am a beautiful daughter of God! God loves me, I am worthy of love, health, stability and peace and I claim these things -- in Jesus name....AMEN!

You cannot blame yourself for another person's actions. You are the victim here. God can and will heal you. I also think a counselor is a great start. My daughter went through being molested, and she felt it was her fault for a while. In fact, she would no longer wear her promise ring. It is a ring a girl wears that looks like a wedding band and says True Love Waits, its a promise to God to remain pure until your wedding night when the ring is taken off and replaced with your wedding band. My daughter saw a pastoral counselor who really helped her and read some great books. I have a thread in here called molested that tells my story and her story. Perhaps it may help you.

Lord, I pray for this young girl. Father she has been a vicitim of a horrible crime. Lord comfort her. Father let her see herself through your eyes. Give her strength to stand up the the wrong she has endured, give her healing Lord. Father surround her with your love and strength.
In Jesus Name
Amen
