• 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

I see in your profile that you are able to speak very plain and I for one cannot understand much of what you said here and so I would like to ask you if you want help to put in words that I would be able to understand. I do not understand your questions or your comment --I understand your icon that says help, angry, sigh, crying and the frown and that is about all I understand. I am sure it would help more than you and me if you could explain your abbreviations a little better. Thank you. :)

it sounds to me like you are on a roller coaster. that's not a good thing. What's causing your depression? What do you think about that makes you depressed. Depression really is nothing but a series of bad thoughts.

(Philippins 4:8) Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, what ever is lovely, whatever is part of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.

Please share with us what it is so you don't have to ride Satans roller coaster of sorrow any longer. In the meantime trust God and think positive thoughts. Take every thought captive and make it obedient to Christ.

In Jesus' name,

Jamie

let all your family troubles rest and enjoy the cousins and your holiday break. just think, your confrimation is soon, and you have your new youth group friends for support. :hug: i know being a teenager is tough. especially when your parents fight and aren't going to church with you. and you are just now starting in church and lessons to help you know what to do with your feelings. :hug: everything will be ok. so enjoy the holidays and perhaps you can make that nurse a gift?:hug:

Yes depression is a horrible thing, and so is being a teenager, being depressed and going through family problems, on top of the stresses of high school and peer pressure.
It hasn't been that many years ago that I was there (I am 22). My parents split up when I was 12. It was a horrible experience. But through it all, I have come trust Christ with my pain. I give it all up to him and he does take care of it.
I will pray for you, that God sends you wonderful blessings this holiday season. I'm sure no matter how bad your situation is, it is no bigger than God. Remember that nothing is bigger than Him. He will take away all of your pain and fears.
I will also pray that your family begins to come to church again. That's very important. I hope you know that God loves you! That's so important when you are depressed. I am currently going through counseling for depression myself and I have realized that no matter who I talk to about my problems, no one can compare with the peace I receive from Jesus. He takes it all away. Hang in there girl, God Bless you and have a very Merry Christmas!
