• 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.

Well Sunday I got sick and it's turned into an infection and i have clogged lungs. So I'm on antibiotics and steroids to help my breathing and Tuesday was the last time I smoked (had one ciggarette I think). I have been trying to quit and God has been telling me to quit for weeks now and I just couldn't do it. So now I got sick and I think God is helping me out here. I decided that's it!!! Since I have been at home most of the week and feeling horrible I figured now is the time! So I'm feeling pretty good with the cravings. I will get one even though I can't breath and just think "NO I PROMSED GOD!" and just ask for his help. So if anyone else is out there struggling with this feel free to msg me :) I know I'm still vulnerable because once my lungs feel 100% I think I may be tempted to smoke but I really want to stick with it! It helps when there is a support group. I'm here if anyone needs.

:)
