• 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

Hey guys,I just need to vent a little.I am new to this forum I posted my stuggle w/ OCD a couple of weeks ago under my story. by the way I've never be "formally diagnosed" w/ OCD.The way this disorder manifests w/ me is through intrusive,UNWANTED,blasphemous thoughts.I am tired of feeling like an outsider in the Body christ. I am tired of Doubting God's love for me.I am tired of these thoughts I hate them w/ a pasion the thoughts. They come between me an the God I want to love and serve.The other night I read posts on this forum on this topic OCD from all the way back to Jan, of 07 and became sad to hear the hurt of you all my bothers and sisters in christ.And believe me I understand .To me unless you've gone through this it's hard to explain to others.Even though I am not obssesing as much right now. and my emotions are ok, partly because of meds,and because part of me some times believes that this is the OCD producing these thougths.I am tired of it I'm 44yrs old I've been struggling w/ this since I was 18. and times I have felt cheated, because I've always Have lived w/ doubt about my salvation among other things.Until 4 yrs ago I didn't even know what ocd really was. Thanks to this forum that i " stumbled"upon a month ago I 've learned alot about this disorder and about my own experience w/ ocd. I also have recieved comfort knowing that I am not the only one going through this.forgive me and thank you for letting me vent. Renewedmind. :sigh:
