• 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

I have been struggling with healing from my sexual assaults when I was kidnapped by a woman named Silver. She lived with a man named Kevin who sexually assaulted me almost everyday I was in captivity. He harmed my heart very much. He was Spanish. He was taller than me and slender but very strong and terrifying. He hurt me very much.
Kevin raped me violently and called me out of my name often and called me evil when raping me over and over. Kevin made me feel very afraid and hurt my soul very much. Kevin made me feel pain in my soul and made me feel as if I was evil even though I knew I was a pure soul and never evil.
Kevin acted as though I was evil and that the Devil could hurt me for it. It hurt my soul very deeply. Kevin acted as though I was evil and different from my family and friends. I am still healing from how he hurt me, he hurt my soul very much.

God can go into your past and heal all of that. Even we are told in everything to give thanks because "we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." Romans 8:28 God is even willing to do a work of forgiveness in our lives. Not for their sake but for our sake so we can let go and be free. God does not give us a spirit of fear but of power, love and a sound mind. We have power over the enemy. WE can have the victory and live the life of an overcomer. God has a perfect work He wants to do in and though us. So we can help and comfort others with the comfort we are able to receive from our Heavenly Father.
