• 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

....Life is so hard right now......I've been diagnosed with a form of Chronic Depression, My best friend on CF killed himself, and my dog is dying. I'm constantly having thoughts of Suicide and Death, and I cut myself.....I cry myself to sleep almost every night. Is there anyone who can help me before the worst comes into reality? Is there anyone who cares about me? Or am I just alone in the world? I feel so alone all the time....life is just not worth living anymore.....:(
:hug::hug::hug:
You're not alone, you're in my thoughts and prayers a lot. I hope you know I don't just say it to be nice lol, I would love to help in any way I can! Don't hessitate to drop me a message or prayer request or just vent whenever you need it. I've been thru an increadibly lonely and depressing time myself and I just want to be there for others. God Bless you :hug:.

I would pour my heart out and tell my story but I feel that I'd be complaining...

Let's Just say I've been depressed for over 3 years and everytime I'm around people I put on a fake personality so they STOP asking, "what's wrong? are you okay? Let's talk...." etc.
It gets annoying and I hate drawing attention to myself... some prayers would be nice though...

God Bless :wave:

tonight i got a very nasty email from an old friend, accusing me both of things that aren't true and of things that are true that i am sorry for. i know i can not answer this tonight - i am too upset by it and i don't want my reply to be bitter or impulsive. lots and lots of prayers tonight - i'd love it if you all could pray for me too, for wisdom and especially for humility as i try to respond in a Christ-like way.
(and as always, my arms are open for hugs.... :) )

/me pops in and gives everyone a huge heap of hugs.
:hug::hug::hug::hug::hug: and even more than that!!

The best advice I can give anyone right now is ... talk to God, pour out your heart to Him. Yell at Him. Just let Him know that you care about the fact that He wants you to spend time with Him.

/me hugs everyone more then pops out.
