• 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 grieving over my husband leaving me to be with another woman. The woman isn't christian, she is a witch and my husband claims he is christian but has has abandoned me numerous times and left me to fend for myself. He acts careless and selfish and has been ignoring me since he was kicked out of my father's house

Before we married I struggled with anxiety and depression. I still do. I was able to get off of the medicine after moving up north with him. But I didn't know that he was very abusive and possessive until we lived together. I had to leave him last October. Then I got lonely and went back and it happened again, so I left in February after being thrown in jail for what he had done to me. I went home to Florida to live with my parents. He came down here the next month and we tried to make things work once again. I was still hurt by what he had done and lashed out at him for quite some time. It got to the point where my father was wanting him out as he was provoking me and causing problems.

He refused to work a job and was recieving an SSI check he didn't need. He is able bodied and healthy, just selfish and lazy. He only started looking for work recently, after he met this girl. He acts like his friends and her are more important than I am. So I decided because he would not stop being unfaithful to me, and treating me badly I was going to get a divorce. I just don't want to at this point, because I am too hurt to go through with it.

I need prayer in this matter.

God bless,

D.L.

Praying that God gives you the strength and determination to do the things that He wants you to do. And that He place a protective hedge around you spiritually, physically, and emotionally.

Here is the link for the request a prayer thread:

Isaiah 54:17
No weapon formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgement thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of Me, saith the Lord.

I agree with NostalgicGranny, that now is the time for prayer, not for grieving. Once you have made the decision God wills for you, then it may be time for grieving -- or time for rejoicing. Then again, as Paul says, "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!" (Philippians 4:4) Draw near to God in this time, and He will comfort and guide you.

Prayers and peace,
Pastor Gadget
