• 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'm down again, hence this pointlessness

Well, I dont even why I'm doing this.

I just feel the need to type something, my new close friend is leaving this week, altho' leaving is a wrong way to put as we'll keep in touch and I hope we do.

But I feel so listless.

I look around and see stuff I've bought and it's meaningless to me.

My whole life is a lie, I've tried so badly to fit in and I dunno.

I hate myself and everything about me is wrong.

With my friend's help, I hate myself less.

I'm gonna go back to doing nothing and getting 'ignored' by my 'friends'

I feel so messed up. scared and lonely.

I'm a chameloen, I just try to fit in and I'm never me, ever.

With her, I'm finally finding myself.

I'm gonna try to find what/who I am but it's gonna be hard.

I hate this life I've got.

sorry for going on but I'm typing as I think.

:hug::hug: I like where you said, "I'm gonna try to find what/who I am but it's gonna be hard."

You're right. It will be hard. But it will be worth it, luv. Because you aren't what you think you are. You're much more. You're a child of God. You're priceless and precious and amazing. He died for YOU.

I'm sorry that at this point things are so rough for you. But they will get better. Strive to make them better, and even if you don't feel strong enough, Abba has strength enough for two ;) He'll be right there with you. This I know from personal experience.

And after all, I'm only a PM away. :) :hug:

" No temption has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it." 1Corinthians 10:13

I know how hard depression is. As your going through it, it seems like it will never end, but it does OceanAngel. Trust in the Lord, as the verse says, He will never let you go through anything that you cannot bear. We see the weakness in ourselves, He sees the strength. You will get through this, just lean on Him. Become dependant upon Him. Let this time be a time where you grow, or as you said, find yourself, but don't do it alone.
God Bless sister.
