• 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.

Japher, I don't know how to help. When was the last time you cut/hurt yourself? If it's been awhile, don't start back down this road. I know it's hard to stop, I'm desperately trying to stop myself. I'll be praying for you...if at all possible, don't turn back to this. God loves you and doesn't want to see you hurt yourself.

You are loved and you will find that always here.

I'm so glad you posted. Talking about it is the right step. I am sooo sorry that you have been hurt and I wish I could take the pain away from you.

Please know many of us have endured similar tragedies and have suffered too. We are all in different stages of recovery. I, myself, was sexually assaulted as a child, then ganged in Jr. High, and then druged two years ago. I have a long history of abuse and have endured alot of physical and emotional pain. Please know that I understand your pain and confusion all to well. I have hit bottome many times. Don't give up. You are a survivor and though you don't feel that way now, you will. You will overcome your pain and suffering, but you have to fight. We are all here to help you in that fight.

I hope you can get some counseling to put you on a path of healing. I spent many years in counseling and have found it to be a blessing.

In the meantime brother, I will say many prayers for you. You will survive. You will become strong. You will become a blessing to others who have been through what you have been through. You will have a wonderful minisistry to help others. Go forward in Christ, and face your demon. Stand strong. Don't give in to your feelings. They are just feelings and feelings are not truth. God is truth. You are a pearl. Pearls comes from a wound.

Gentleness to you,
Kim
