• 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 am losing hope because my life is going down the drain fast. I am wondering whether or not someone cursed me because this is beyond the ordinary and all of the misery of my life has made me feel dead inside and depressed. I hear an inner "voice" that is not very distinct from my own and the voice claims that it is my crush from upper secondary school. At first I thought this was the Lord supernaturally connecting me and her but this has to be something strange and schizophrenic. I honestly want to die. My life is going nowhere and I do not understand why things had to turn out this way. I WANT COMPLETE HEALING BUT THE DOCTORS ONLY GIVE MEDS that do not cure the condition. I WANT TO BE FREE BUT WHY WON'T GOD HEAR MY DESPERARE PRAYERS?

Yeah, He does hear them. Pardon me if I sound too negative. This is your life, this is your test. It’s hard, it’s a drag, it’s a bummer. I’m sure a lot of other people can say the same thing. I’ve had a problem for 60 years. I face it, I fight it,I deal with it and I’ve grown. Not to where I want to be. But I have learned to cope using scripture. I got married and had a lot of experiences. It’s been a good enough life, but I’m not proud or egotistical. Not saying you are.

The Bible makes good sense. It can shape you form you if you are willing to follow its principles. Some suffering and cycles along the way. Anybody could say the same thing. But since I came to my senses I’ve focused against it and won a lot of ground with seemingly insurmountable odds. But God always gives me the toe hold, He gives us the increase. He loves us He knows it’s hard. He will work with you and give you a satisfying life.

Don't give up, fight, seek God, seek some brothers or sister filled with the Holy spirit that could help.
Jesus, can help us, he is not mythology he is alive and created the universe. Pray a lot to him, tell him all your problem have faith.

This thread has had a clean up . A couple rules need to be mentioned:

  • For your own safety, please do not publicly disseminate any personally identifiable information such as your home address, phone number, social security number, or credit card information. You may place your Email address and instant messenger information in your profile.


  • Requesting specific prayers for deliverance from demonic activity, or requesting advice on how to exorcise or bind demons is not allowed. Posts which attempt to exorcise or bind demons, or posts which give instructions on how to complete deliverance are not allowed. Members concerned about demonic activity/deliverance may speak with a CF Chaplain in the Ask a Chaplain forum.

So don't post your personal email and do not discuss spiritual warfare and demons in this forum.

God rarely talks to me in a voice, and when He does I don't have to wonder. I know. If God is talking to you within, you will know.

Tell every other voice to go in Jesus name. The devil is a big, fat, liar! Tell him to shut up and go in Jesus name.

Put your energies on getting to know God through prayer and his Word, through nature and his people.

If God speaks to you in an inner voice, there will be no doubt it is God and remember, no matter how sure you are, he won't go against his word and character

Stop focusing on your problem and focus on God. It is the revelation of Him in your inner being, that vision of him that will change you.

Hang in there. We hold you up in prayer, in Jesus name Lord hear the cry of his heart and impart your peace and faith. Open his heart to you and give Him that inner vision of you so that He forgets himself and loses himself in you. Amen.

Hang on. This too shall pass. Weeping may last for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

Next time the devil tells you that you are not going to get better you tell him he is the father of lies and Jesus defeated him at the cross; that you are an overcomer in Christ and he has to go in Jesus name.

Shut up devil in Jesus name. You liar. Jesus is our Lord and it is his voice we will follow!

I've been there my friend. Life can be real no doubt. Pray to God and do what you can for your sanity. Desperation can be a terrible thing to go through. Please try to limit your misery when and if you can. My Uncle had cerebral palsy the spastic kind. He couldnt walk or talk. I loved him a great deal, sadly I wonder at times if he thought the same things as you. I believe God loves us all. Don't think for a second that your sins are worse than anyone elses. God didnt go to the cross for jay walkers and shoplifters, He took on the heavy stuff as well. It's ok to get frustrated my friend, but limit that as well. And remember never condemn yourself please, it's very uncomfortable to lose hope. One day at a time ok? Take care...
