• 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.

I have decided to quit drinking today. I am a newbie on this website and a newbie in my faith walk with the Lord. I am looking for support and words of encouragement in my journey of a new life without alcohol. I have felt that with those I do share I want to quit I don't get enough support because they lead me to believe I do not have a problem. I do and I need to hear this because its what really will make me understand that I do need help. I also suffer from vertigo and somehow this has made it worse.

Thank you and I am really looking forward in having new friends here.

Blessings to you all! :groupray:

I'm always willing to throw in my two cents a lot of the times in will be in a word of encouragement. I would recommend finding support local also. Maybe start with a loving bible based church. Remember the start can be the toughest. Take it one moment at a time and one day at a time. Take care, God bless.
