• 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Long time since ive been in these habits, nearly a year, but before i've realised it im neck deep in restircting again, and for the third time in a week ive wanted to purge. I'm determined not to go back down that way, but as for the restrciting i keep telling myself that once i reach my goal thats it, ill change my habits. I think i know in my heart it aint gonna happen.
gah >_< what have i done. i dont even no for sure why im doing this again >_< feeling really alone, why have i relapsed, am i that weak?

You're not weak, sis. It's just really, really hard to conquer these habits after "obeying" them so long. And it's good that you realise that you're falling back into these old habits. Can you talk to anyone? counselor, youth pastor?

Stay strong. *huggles*

hunni, u aren't weak, u have been thruogh soo much, and to have done soo well for soo long is amasing! to be able to stand there and say, so I'm slipping back, that takes a lot of strength to do, to admit it. I'm praying for you, and remember God is soo proud of you for being soo strong and for admitting the problem still lies there, and for saying that you are falling back into it, and for doing soo well!

Thnx guys. Im still slipping back but im trying, the only people i can talk to are a few mates, but even they dont really understand. My counsellor left a few months ago, and me and my youth pastor wouldnt see eye to eye about anything like this. It just feels like im slipping back and no one understands, and i just feel i coulda not slipped...if that makes sense
