• 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’ve been thinking and I would like to add something to this. It was not my intention to upset anyone or to derail the thread.

I wanted to make a comment and leave it at that but I got drawn into something which was I wasn‘t expecting. My POV was undoubtedly coloured by my experience with the things mentioned, the experience of others I know and my subsequent discoveries about the issue. I am currently in the thick of it, I am going through an SSRI withdrawal and the oven is red hot. For me this felt almost like warning someone of something that could send them to hell unnecessarily, because for me and others it has lead to a type of hell which could have been avoided.

Despite my position (which I stand firm on) I think this discussion ended up being something….else. So for the way in which it played out on my part I apologise and also for anyone I offended as a result of the manner/context in which I put my point across I doubly apologise.
