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.

This type of story probly doesnt belong in a christian forum but I feel like telling it.
Last night i went to my freinds welcome back party, I had drank a few drinks and done a small line of speed I was feeling depressed so i decided to hang myself with my belt. About 6 seconds later someone noticed and took me off the tree.
Now i look back and I wouldn't really care if i had of died and yet I dont want to attempt to kill myself again. Probly cause I dont wanna make my family unhappy.
I believe in god and all I used to even go to a bible study but I think its silly that he can send something that he made to hell. But I guess he did give us free will.
Sorry if I this isnt understandable, but my brains a bit scrambled from last nights events.
Any feedback would be apreciated.

unenlightened one said:I am sad because I'm so shy and I haven't ever been in a relationship with a girl. And last year I took an inteligence test to find my weakneses and strengths (Because I kept telling my mum I was a retard and she wanted to proove to me that I wasn't) but I was pretty much stupid all round.
unenlightened one said:Trust me im not dumb because of drugs and alcohol. I took that test before I started binge drinking most weekends. I would read but I get frustrated with my slowness.
thanx for the advice I'll trymmreed said:Dumbness is a state of condition. You can change that - if you want to.

unenlightened one said:I see what your all are saying, im gonna try to quit drinking and druging. Its hard when all my freinds do it basicaly every weekend though.
