• 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.

What's the point of this horrible world. Everything has gone to hell. I tried to join Christianity, I tried my hardest to not be bisexual, I prayed like 10 times a day. My mom kicked me out of the house when I came out and told her about my sexuality and tried to convince her that she needed jesus. I fought and screamed for hours with her and she threw me out. I hate this world so much it makes no sense at all. Why do people have to be this way. I wish my father was alive he loved me so much but God had to take him away from me, I hate god. He doesn't do anything, he's useless. I have skipped agnosticism and went straight to atheism. Maybe my mom will take me back if I stop trying to force this garbage down her throat. I hate life, nothing works like it should. Whats the point of existence when it would hurt much less to be dead. I am staying at my friends house but I cant stay long, I guess Ill have to beg my mom to take me back. I am so confused and tired of life right now I just want to overdose and end the shame and shallowness that this life is. I have tried my best to be something that I am not, and It not only failed but it screwed my life also.

Things maybe alittle tough on you now but ending a life that has just started isn't the answer. I have thought of doing that once and it was just a thought and then the Lord told me that I didn't want to do that I had so much to live for and so do you. If you need someone to talk to I am here. :wave: I will pray for you and I know that you will find the right thing.

Katie,

I want you to take a moment and just breathe. Understand your situation, you gone thru a lot of garbage in a short period of time. Just find a friend or counsellor and let all this pain out.

Saddly we all fall short compared to the glory of God. We are human and imperfect beings, we make many mistakes in our lives. Once you understand this, you will understand that your mother made decissions based on emotions.

You hate God and try to push him away. Trying to take the easy way out of this existance, when really you have no clue if pain will end at death. God hears your pain and knows your tears. He is there with you, sometimes his blessings are not obvious or great in size. I found they are usually small blessings. Such as your friend is able to give you a place to stay.

Listen to your spirit, if you close your eyes and just meditate. You will find a voice within your mind, much like a whisper compared to the screams of your emotional pain. You will know when you found it, for it will tell you the truth. Life is not unbearible and you are not a bad person. Let this voice have control of your small thread of reason. It will go against all this emotional screaming, fighting to convince you that it is not as bad as it seems.

Talk with your friends parents and ask them for help. Also try your mom again, but avoid the screaming. If she has not changed her heart, then seek help from other love ones. They will aide you.

Your life is not over, it has only begun. Don't give up and give your pain to our God. He is listening and knows your heart.

Get to an emergency room and get evaluated for your suicidal ideations. I will gladly talk to you about your spiritual issues after you are evaluated for suicidal thoughts.

Your pain and confusion are valid and real. I need to tell you to make yourself safe from self-harm by getting to an ER and getting evaluated.

i will, i talked to a friend and I feel better, i want to live. I love you guys, im not going anywhere.
Good first step Katie,

Take it easy for while and let your mind settle some. Still have ways to go, but we are here if you need us. Also don't be afraid to ask for help right now. Worst thing you can do is take this all on yourself. Don't let pride get in the way, but keep your head up and keep pushing forward.

Then you will lack a deep sense of inner security, and will be prone to thinking negatively. You need someone to walk through some issues with you and help you rebuild your life.

But always remember you are loved by God whatever you are feeling, and he has welcomed you into His family as an infinitely precious and lovable person.

god often gives us periods of trials and sufferings and hardships so that we can be better and stronger people! what do you do when you want to make a strong sword or blade? you throw it in the fire! you burn it in the furnace and then hammer it and then throw it in the fire again! But in the end, you have a beautiful sword of pure steel with all its impurities burnt out, and it is stronger than 100 normal blades.

god says he is exceedingly joyful in all our tribulations, not because of our suffering, but what it is producing in us. us humans are very shortsighted. we cannot see a foot beyond the future, but god can see all!

please continue to pray and let jesus guide you!

I'm seeing a therapist now, and I'm learning to enjoy the small things in life. He's teaching me whats important in life, the ones you love, and that I need to enjoy life everyday because it doesn't last forever. I am happier than ever and I am living life to the fullest. For god, I prayed to him for months and even joined a church. Nothing happened, I still felt lonely and depressed. So I am still agnostic but i am the happiest agnostic in the world.

I am so happy for you that you have found a path to happiness. Finding satisfaction in your life is very important. I do hope that you don't give up completely on God. It's very hard to draw near to Him when you're depressed. Now that you are feeling better, you might want to give it another go.
*Hugs to you*
