• 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.

  • Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private. Announcements will be made in the respective forums as well but please note that if yours is currently listed as Private, you will need to submit a ticket in the Support Area to have yours changed.

  • 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.

I've struggled with anxiety, negative thinking, and more worry and fear than I'd like for at least the last few years, probably longer. This year, however, I want to change that the best I can and become more positive. To help boost my positive thinking, I've started this thread, where I will make a post about something I'm happy about every day this year (or at least as many days as I can).

I'm thankful that this new year provides new opportunities for a fresh start and improvement. I pray that with God's guidance and the support of my friends, I'll achieve my goals this year.

Your idea is good. Can I give you a little twist to it? Find several new and distinct things every day to be thankful to God for. And think about your image of God. This thought comes from Romans 1: 21. When you get a correct image of the person and character of God, and give him both glory and thanks, you'll find a lot of your anxieties will diminish. And you'll avoid the other things that the verses after 21 say happened to people.

Good luck with this - if you keep it up, it should help. Fear and anxiety sometimes makes us forget the good.

At the start of 2017, I felt anxious almost 24/7. I'm sooo thankful that I'm not that way anymore and didn't feel that way at the start of 2018.

Good luck with this - if you keep it up, it should help. Fear and anxiety sometimes makes us forget the good.
Thank you. :)

I'm making another stuffed animal now and for some reason it's going a lot quicker and easier than the last one. I'm not sure why that is but I won't complain, it's great. ^_^

So thankful that I found Christian Forums, a site that respects good Christian values and where I can definitely improve my faith. :angel:


What kind (?), any pics (?)
It's a pink rabbit. :) I'll show once it's done!

Thankful for all the good things God has given me. Glad to be a part of this community.
I also still like the drawing in my signature that the talented @MrMoe made for me. It always makes me smile. :)
