• 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

Just an update~

I wanted to just give an update on my daughter, who ive posted about in various forums- she is a cutter, had been hospitalized twice for a suicide pact, and recently had decided that she wanted to explore and get into Wicca (yes...my heart DID jump into my throat, and stayed there for months-lol)

At this time, she let me know a couple of days ago that she hasn't cut in 27 days---she came to me with this, I didn't ask her :)

I would also like to add that after poring over books on wicca, talking with other wiccans, and being gung-ho about wicca in general while she was telling me that I was being paranoid, and nothing was wrong with it- in other words 'demons, schmemons' lol- she came to me the other day and told me that she has decided against wicca because of something she read about it that bothered her- I asked her what it was, and apparently she had read something about various holiday observances, and ran across Samhain. She was ok with it until she read that the god becomes the 'lord of the underworld'....and apparently, it stopped her cold- something that she had believed had been nothing more than somewhat of a nature religion so to speak, was now something that had to do with things in the underworld-I mentioned the fact that I wondered how something that was seen in a positive 'light' could also be part of such a dark thing--

ANYway....I want to thank you guys for your prayers and support as ive posted all over the place concerning her.

Oh, one more thing- Angelique, if you read this? My daughter tells me that you guys are still yakking back and forth on messenger- and I want to let you know that the things you're going through right now and the questions you are trying to get answers to? my prayers and thoughts are with you- God keep you while you're toughing through what you're toughing through- hugs to you!

This is good to hear....keep praying that your daughter keeps being led in the right direction....maybe even lead her onto here to talk to some other people with religious and non-religous views....I mean....it isn't just for Christians.
