• 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.

Hi,
Thanks so much to all who prayed for my Aunt. I think those prayers helped a lot - even in my own work troubles too... :hug: :hug: :hug:

I could use a small hug again. I have social anxiety - to a certain extent, and am going to a 'function' tomorrow evening. It should be fun, but I worry about everything, and also tend to resent my schedule being 'interrupted'.... Can someone please pray for me that all goes well and I have a good time after all? And that I could stop the whirlwind in my mind, worrying, and actually be confident? :o :cry:

Thanks
Rainchild~

*hugs* Lord calm Your dear child and let all the anxiety that is taking over her body just fade away. Be peace to her while she is at social gatherings. Let her fear of being around too many people be lifted from her. Give her a sense of confidence to walk into this situation knowing that You oh Lord are always with her. Let her mind be at ease and let her have a good time. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Thanks so much! I really need the prayers, because I just found out the event is the least of my troubles...

My parents don't have such a good marriage, though it appears "normal", and today I found out my mom's been drinking due to worries over money, and my Dad just blames it all on her and left to go for a drive when they had a fight. This always happens, and they're both too stubborn (and too much in denial) to change. They've got so many defenses built up too. It's been a burden on their kids, because they don't talk to eachother but through us, and I feel weighed down by it. :help:

I really wish they'd get some help.:cry: :cry: :cry: Sorry to be a nuisance, but can you please pray for them too? :(

Absolutely. When someone is in need of prayer we won't deny them that here. *hugs* I am glad you let your worries out here instead of trying to carry them yourself.

Lord, let Your presence be known in the marriage of Rainchild's parents. They truly need You right now Lord. They are not facing their troubles head on as they should. They are trying to resolve them by talking through their children, which can pull their children down without even knowing it. Lord, let Rainchild's parents start talking to each other to work things out. Let her mother stop drinking and know that such a substance put into the body just makes things worse. Let her father cool off and take on responsibility enough to work things out in the proper way with his wife. Lord be beside them to work out their problems whether those problems be financial or just communication in general. Lord let Your love flood through their relationship to bring them back together and so they also come back to You oh Lord. Let them rely on You. Let them know You provide for all Your lost and scattered sheep. Let peace cover their marriage oh Lord and let Your love pull the pieces back together so things start working out for them again. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

God has answered the prayer!
