• 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.

  • Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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

I can't take it anymore...

This has been the worst week of my life so far: first, lost my Facebook account, then lost the lottery 3 times in a row (not a big deal though), then nearly lost my iPod Touch 5th generation model because it almost died for no reason, and I've sinned far too much. Plus, on this of this nightmare fest, I've been angry with God a lot more than usual, and I blamed Him for all this. And also my friends don't care. I wish that this would end...

Sure you can take it.

If Facebook is anything like other social media (I don't know, I don't use facebook at all) sites, you can probably make another account with a different e-mail address. I lose small sums of money all the time too. I don't do lottery, but sports bets. I usually always lose, but anyway it's just for fun. If I suddenly got rich, I would be afraid that it would change me. That's how little I trust myself.

It's probably something else that's eating you, and you project it all on those things you speak of. Can you figure out what it might be?

I've sinned a lot too. That's what we do, because we're just people. This is why Christ came and took our sins upon Himself. When we understand this, we know that all of it glorifies God and His grace, and at the same time none of us can pretend to be better than another, and none of us can say that we don't need Christ. You are no more of a sinner than I am, and you are no less under His grace.

No offense, but it sounds easy for you to say. I've had that account for three years, and it's not THAT easy to rebuild. SOMETHING ELSE EATING ME? THAT'S NOT IT! Thanks anyways, but my feelings are already minimized enough..

Anything is easy to say. What would you have liked for me to say instead?

I said that because I do that myself and I see plenty of others doing it too; something is eating me, and I get angry for other things. Like a venting system. No harm intended.

May I ask why you lost that account?

yeah, that's the case. I had to remade the account all over from scratch.

Yeah that would make me angry as well if I had to do that. Strange that they closed your account when someone reported it. I hope they wont close my account that would be a real pain.
