• 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 thought I'd throw these lyrics at you.
Get up by superchic[k]

I'm Not afriad to fall, it means I've climbed up high. To fall is not to fail, you fail when you dont try.

Even if its the 20th time, we'll jump & see if we can fly.

That song is really insperational to just pick yourself up when you fall or relapes. Just get up & try again. You fall when you go far but that means you just try to get ferther next time.

My friend told me a few weeks ago. Dont see it as a relapes, see it as a hurdle in life & recovery.
Whats done is done, dont dwell on it. keep going.

yea, I know how hard it is. Just to say no. but going with out for even one night, is a great acheivement.

Good luck everyone. Your in my prayers. Love Ally. (CIA)

Thanks for this post Ally - you're so right! We all fall, but even when we do, it's not the end of the world. It just means that we need to pick ourselves back up, dust the dirt off and keep walking forward. Sometimes it can be hard, but it really is worth it :thumbsup:.
