• 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

where i m just too tired to fight but i cant not fight does that make sense ..
i had a better day yesterday where the thought activity was diminished by 80 % then today ...all hell broke loose ..and i just cant do it ...i cant keep up its gotten to the point where i cant have a phone conversation without being interrupted ...

but what is the alternative ...drugs drugs and more drugs therapy therapy and more therapy ...it seems pointless to me ...it seems that the only way i will have a normal life again is to be a zombie ..

so which is better ..to be sick or to live a life half lit ..?

i know im being pessimistic but it is better than lying about it ..

picassoui,
I have to tell you that I know how you feel because I have been feeling the same way lately. It is frustrating when you realize that you are sick with OCD & have to deal with things that non-OCD people will ever have to deal with or could ever understand. (I just came to the realization that for the past 25 years I have had OCD but was misdiagnosed many times.) I have been finding peace in knowing that the Lord Jesus knows exactly how I am feeling & that His grace is enough for me. The worst part is not being able to fix my own mind on my own. I have been on an anit-depressent for about 3 weeks now & have noticed some stubble changes. I too question weather or not the meds will work but I have to trust that my doctors know what they are doing & that the Lord is working through them. The thing I have to keep remembering is that I am not alone in this and that others have these same symptoms and struggles. I hode fast to this verse:

"Our citizenship is in heaven, And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body."
Philippians 3:20-21​

Isn't that something great to hope for! One day we all will be given glorified bodies that don't have OCD!! Praise the Lord! Even so Come Lord Jesus! :clap:
So be of good cheer my friend! I hope this helps. I will pray for you & if you wouldn't mind please pray for me too!!
-Mandy :prayer:
