• 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.

I was just thinking how thankful I am for a forumn like this that is Christian and we can talk about our struggles with self harm. This came about as I remembered how I had been treated at another place that was christian but was not for self harm but in fact for other struggles.

It truly is amazing that this place exists. Before i came here I had almost given up. But we truly do need a place where we can be reminded of God's love and his word in this battle.

Don't you think?

Yeah... this is the first Christian forum I've come to and been able to talk about my problems and not be criticized... Few other places have I been to where I don't get accused of not having enough faith and told to get rid of my meds and just get a boyfriend at church to set me straight (Uhm, how is that supposed to fix me? lol) which of course just stirs up negative emotions and makes me wanna you-know-what.

Hi Berry,
Guess who's back!!!! I need to stay in here and visit again like I use to because it is a Christian place and we can talk so freely about spiritual matters and how they affect the way we think and feel about ourselves and that affects how we treat ourselves as well.
