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.

Respectful and Informed and Asking the Same
Listen, if you are seriously contemplating suicide or self infliction, then talk to your parents, a teacher, a chaplain, or anyone that you trust to look out for you. If you cannot think of any, then call the crisis hotline. Don't know if I can post the number but you can find it easily.
If you want my advice in making this better, then I would suggest that you stop seeking external validation and perhaps look deep inside yourself and see the value that you have. If you cannot cut yourself that break, imagine what you would tell someone else in that exact same state, knowing how it feels. I imagine that you would try to comfort another in your shoes. You are your own strongest advocate. When you finally learn how to conquer this, then you will feel great about yourself, and when life gets tough again, you'll shrug it right off and get right back up feeling better than before.
I have been about as far down as one can get, and everyday I look back and realize how ridiculous I was being. Even so I learned something incredibly valuable through that experience.

We all need God in our life, and without Him we are left to our own frail ideas ---and Satan is always greatly working on that to discourage and destroy us (see what he did to Eve and Adam in Genesis 2 & 3). Do you want God in your life? One can have His blessing if one will receive His "great salvation" found in His beloved Son --the Lord Jesus Christ. He will come and dwell in you. If one does not want the Lord Jesus in one's life, then God has nothing more to offer. Start reading your Bible ---beginning at John 1; John 3; John 14, and see what God is showing you. Look up and trust God.

Serial Sinner,
You just joined. It is going to take some time on these boards. I have not been responded to as well (I have recently joined), and that is okay. Do not take it personally! No, no no. If you do take it personally . . . well, that just adds unnecessary obstacles to already difficult lives--you and me, we don't need that, ok?
"I would rather be dead"--I have thought and said that a lot. I have felt like harming myself many times. But you know what, SS1984? 1watchman is right.
We need God. We really need God. Those people who have thoughts like this, people like you and me, we really need Christ in our life, because He does not make the obstacles vanish, but he gives us the perspective to get on with our lives.
My life objectively sucks-I work a dead-end job, and I have few friends, and I am in debt, and I could on and on. But what I am learning is that I am rich! Yes, I am rich. Rich right now in this very moment, because I look around at my circumstances, and I do not get hope or excitement or fulfillment . . . and because of that-I become despairing--this is where the magic happens--instead of this being the end of the story, this is really the beginning.
Because of my misery/despair at what I have in "stuff or "people", I stop looking at that for my joy and happiness . . .instead of looking at myself or my world, I look up then, to God, and he fills me in a way I could never be filled by even the best circumstances, the hottest girlfriend, the coolest life! This is Christ in us, the hope of glory. This is our faith, it is not hopeful optimism about some great place in the sky in the future, it is right now, and it can be accessed most fully often ONLY in the worst of circumstances (cause that's when we really cling to him). I have joy instead of despair when I let Christ fill me up. And that is how I get on with my day. And because I can do it, so can you (because it is not ME who is doing it). Ask God to come into your life, your heart, your soul, or ask again, and do not stop until there is calm peace that is beyond all understanding. And I rest in the peace instead of looking to what is around me to give me peace, and I keep doing that--all day long.
I will be praying for you SS1984.

Dear God,
I pray for serialsinner1984. I pray against the dark thoughts that afflict them. May they know for sure that Jesus died to pay for their sins and loves them if there is any doubt. May they hold onto hope.

Don't even think of doing that. Sometimes we go through trials which we can use as a testimony. You will overcome whatever you are going through right now and will be a living testimony to many

When I was younger I tried meditating and that actually made me happy I had no worries about friends or missing out on things. Your just at peace with your world and realize it's all in how you filter the world ei your thoughts that cause you problems.
