• 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.

Is there some kind of trick?

One thing I noticed when temptation arises is when you're laying down or watching TV or on the computer. Put those thoughts out of your head. If you start getting temptations, get off the computer. If it's a TV show, turn it. I also noticed if you're laying down is to just stop thinking and go to sleep. I've been tempted and have overcome it like that, by just ignoring it and going to sleep and when I wake up the temptation is gone.

Also, don't just marry someone that you think you may not like in 20 years. Make sure you find someone that, when you marry you will want to spend the rest of your life with.

Distraction, distraction, distraction. Find an addictive video game or sign on to CF and post about your struggles or read some edifying material. Listen to some really good Christian music. Remember, it's just an urge. It will pass. Praying for you!!!
