• 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

Okay, so I fooled around and didn't make that appointment with my friend's therapist like I'd planned......My parents came over the beginning of last week and noticed my major weight loss, my house was a mess, (which is not me) and I was to the point of being numb..........So, my mom suggested taking me to the hospital, and since I respect my momma so much and I know she knows me better than anyone and can spot the signs of an episode in the making a mile away, I went.....I was hospitalized for three days and I am now on Remeron (which not only helps me sleep, it makes me eat) She put me on Tegritol, but changed it to Equetro when I was released. It has really helped me so far, and it has prevented me from doing something stupid....MAJOR PLUS!!!:thumbsup:



I want to thank each and every one of you for your support and for listening to me beller on and on. It really means a lot to me to have wonderful people like you in my life. God is so wonderful!!!:clap:

I'll be off of here for about a week, but hope to return real soon.
:hug:'s and :angel::kiss:es!!

So glad your mom helped you and you listened. Sounds like it was a good thing. Remeron helped me for those exact reasons. And I"m still taking it. I'll be praying for you. Good luck.
Thank you. :) Remeron has also helped me gain the weight that I've been longing to gain for so long. I weighed 98 lbs when I went into the hospital. As of about 4 days ago, I weighed 102, and have gained a little since then. My goal weight is 120 at least, so y'all keep praying. I know God is listening.
I love y'all!!!
:hug:'s and :angel: :kiss:es!!

Aww. I'm so happy for you. Sounds like we are about the same weight. It's nice to find someone who struggles with weight the way that I do. It is a real struggle for me. And my current med combo seems to be making it a little worse at the moment. Most women just envy me or roll their eyes when I say I struggle with the need to gain weight. They don't understand how serious of a health problem it can be! good luck in your quest. I too aiming for about 120 currently 107.

God is listening and so are all of us here!

I'm so glad to hear that you didn't fight your Mom. You were headed toward this for a spell now and many of us here were concerned for you.

You keep doing what you do best and enjoy the rest that you've been granted.

I'll certainly keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Stephen

Thank you berry. :hug: I know about the eye-rolling thing all to well. I do agree that most don't understand the health issues that go along with being so under-weight. I thank God for every pound that I gain. I consider it a real blessing! :)

Stephen!! :hug: I'm sorry if I worried anyone. I thank all for their concern from the bottom of my heart. Things are finally looking up for me and I'm so glad.
