• 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 had depressive issues for over 30 years, my family means the most to me now, I live in social housing and have been offered a place closer to where my daughter lives, she is about to have a baby and I so want to be closer to them both.

the problem is that I have grown attached to this area, and met some people not close friends but to talk to, and I am scared, at present I live in a house and will be moving to a small estate, and a smaller home. The people are rough and I dont know what to do, as well as this I wonder if the flat will be too small as is much smaller than here, but in this flat I must suffer cannabis smoke each day especially when it is cold and I cant open the windows, I find it makes me cough, and I just fear on how I will cope with things all round, I am getting depressed when I should not as I do want to live nearer my daughter.

Please pray that God will lead me to what is meant to be. Taking this flat will mean problems with getting it decorated (I have arthritus) and getting the garden right (at the moment there is no fence and people use it as a dumping ground for rubbish and to park cars in the garden, so that tells me what the neighbours are like.
