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.

Thanks for the hugs, Jo1 and Reverie_Maiden. I have since heard back from my professor (I emailed her asking about my grade), and it turns out I was calculating it wrong. Thank God!

I'm not doing great tonight. I guess that's a given, since it's nighttime, and things always go poorly then. Bipolar cycling I guess, or something. But still... just because it's regular doesn't mean that it doesn't hurt, and that's something that people just don't seem to get. I.e., my parents. And no one can fix me. Heh.

hi everyone hugs all round.
I know this sounds silly but I could do with a hug,i ts my birthday tomorrow and i cant get the birthday balloons to appear and no-one seems to be able to help me.so wanted them to come too. thanks
Sorry for the double post, but I need a hug too. Read my latest blog entry to find out why. I don't feel like typing it out again. Thanks.
Have always avoided this bit, cos it's easier to swan around pretending everything is fine, but I think things are coming to a head, in some ways. Have never really got the whole internet dating thing... but have met someone from CF who is special. But I know all these issues I have about my own lack of worth are beginning to cause problems.
I find myself getting really panicky about things, and being absolutely certain he's gonna meet someone else who is simply better than me. Prettier, funnier, more intelligent... all the superlatives am so clearly not.
I really think there could be something special between us, but it's bringing up old issues I had sort of forgotten about, and I know if I carry on the way I'm going, I'm gonna suck all the joy out of our burgeoning relationship. Only thing is, I don't know how to stop.
I never let people "in", so I never talk about my feelings, but he's in, and I'm worried am gonna screw him up, too. I don't want him to feel obligated to be there. Know what I mean? I want him to be there because he so wants to be, and even tonight, have sensed a cooling from him - doubtless cos I had another panic attack. Even the kindest, most wonderful people have a tolerance threshold at some point.
I'm trying to give this all to God, but it doesn't seem to be going anywhere... even as I write, I feel quite panicky and I don't know why. I haven't slept in 2 days - insomnia - so am probably less rational than I would normally be, but I don't want to say that's all it is, because deep down I know this depression and fundamental lack of self-worth is still there.
We are all beautiful in God's eyes - why is it so impossible to understand that, and to believe it?
I'm such a mess, and have spent so long pretending to be fine, I don't quite know how to handle it when the mess-ness comes to the fore anymore.
Maybe I'm not ready to be pursuing anything... I just really wish things were different.
Am sorry if this is really long. I know I've barely even scratched the surface, but I imagine this is all just ridiculously dull. Am sorry. x
