• 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 am a former cutter and ODer. I haven't cut in about 6 months (all thanks to God) but today I slipped completly when it came to pills. I just got my mind on all the bad things that I shouldn't have been thinking about... It would take forever to type all that out... but I've just been letting family get to me...

So prayers would be greatly appreciated... I can't let myself fall again... too many people need me.



God Bless,
Sarah

You need to turn your mind to more pleasant thoughts even when the world around you seems to be pulling you down. Memorize Philippians 4:8,9 "Finally, my fellow believers, whatever things are true, whateve things are honest, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. Those things which you have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me (Paul) do, and the God of peace will be with you."

Make a list of things to think about just as things are beginning to go sour for you. Do not wait until they are beyond control. You must act as soon as you know when circumstance are taking you down the wrong path.

Jude 1:24-25: To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy—to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.:amen:
