• 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 bet because of the past abuse, i developed the habit of taking care of everyone, finally make myself a mother of everyone.....:(
I need to get rid of this, so uneasy.
and I need to stop blaming myself, I need to learn to accept myself , feeling content about my life. seeking joy from pain. I need so much strength.

and Why i so much want to save a person? I m not God, I m putting myself in danger and risk, and i do not want to stay in safe, also because i m lacking self confidence?

I think that it is a beautiful gift that you have. Many out there need someone that care for them as motherly figure, just find a way to channel that in a way that God can use you in. I don't think that you go to a situation where you life is in danger, or overexhaust yourself because you also need time for yourself. Try to find a balance ask the Lord to help you do this.
