• 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

Need some support,guidance

An almost nice night,mom have one event(that i explained in the other thread),the rest of the night was calm.
Reading some passages of the bible always calm me down,being in a old catholic family we have Bibles from portugal,some from my mothers grandmother(who she inherit her name) she was spanish,i can be an book nerd,but i love old books.
Saying this i finally found out,what really relaxed me,i manage to sleep..just by the simple thought that i have to face my fears..that is the nightmares of the times that my mom got in a crisis..and almost passed to the side of god

And now the daughter of my vulture sister cathia called here,desesperate ,saying that she would jump out of window..and my lovely vulture sister cathia accusing that is her fault that his father abandoned her..lovely.
I called a taxi to get here there,she will stay the evening here,at 6pm she will be back..

Well if she was able to force me to attempt against my own life,and betray my own catholic beliefe of life preservation,i kinda feel sorry for her daughter..but at same time doing that im risking my own stability if that brings me more stress.

But i cant abandon her,i would die inside if i do that.

The teenager is out,and it took her 2 hours to calm down..lovely.
Mom had another episode of lack of air,because she didn't swallow her spit..again..but fortunally it was solved in 8mins or less.

Suck it fast so it dont made her more apprehensive,and calm her down
For now,im reading some old books to calm down,and looking for differences from the old bibles..a "game" that relax me..for some reason it appear that old books scent make me relax.

Is about 11:28pm here,still cant sleep,but the hand shaking stopped and the heavy feeling in the chest got better..i guess all my mind needed was something that i feel comfortable in putting my mind in for sometime and forget the preoccupations and the weight of the day

Feeling angry,is disgusting that when their mother is this way,facing situations that could kill her,they only call to see if she is going to die or not.
The funny is me against 3 brothers,2 sisters..the unique one who will known what happened to me and my mother,will be this forum..amazing how society work this days.
The lack of a stable and strong catholic church comunity here greatly helped in that too,due to violence and the competition of $$$ churches(here we have a church every corner..mostly only want $$),the catholic church here is extremly weak.

Soon all the paperwork will be done..i have put all i have got for over 20 years savings,i put my entire heritage to pay for it,then they will do not be able to get what is of my mom,whiteout a long justice fight.

When mom got stronger,and whiteout risk..im going to search for a job whatever i can do outside brasil,if i remain here handling these vultures for long,it will be my end.

Amazing i forget entire part of my day..but i cant forget every time she got a crisis..i dream with then every time.

And back to that corner,but now is differrent,before i could try and wanted to find a way to get better,now i dont..i just dont see reasons to keep going with the paperwork almost done..mom always had the money to pay for her recovery,she will live,im not needed

Being here,to be offended,handle pressure from all points alone,since i spent all had in the lawyer and im whiteout working for months doing mom care..is find another place,or get crazy here..but that would be a checkmate in my soul,because i would be leaving her,my own mother,the person i stayed at her side my entire life..do i have the right to be selfish and seek recovery in another place? I cant,so im in the middle of 2 swords..and both are getting deep inside of me

But in that situations,im speculating too much,it would be too much of a miracle to find a place that could accept me to work,that is Christian based outside of brazil

Weird isnt it,when you want to have an option..you just dont have it

my headache just dont go away,the memory loss now cover 50% of my day,so far of what i remember she is ok

Bless yer heart, praying. Raderack, slow down, calm down, sit, and breathe slowly and evenly, and clear your mind of stress to give yourself a break from it. Make sure you drink enough fluids to not get dehydrated...that, along with the enormous stress can effect you and cause headaches and memory loss...in the meantime i'm praying for your protection and healing and that God strengthens and sustains you. (((hug)))

And they are back again,the vultures(term used here in brazil,for parent that only appear for $$ or financial interest) brothers and sisters..last time i got very close to take my own life,thanks for a brief moment of light,i was blessed with a brief moment of sanity,i went to a doctor,got medicine..and i survived.

But now i cant,my heartbeat is always over 115..the medicine would cause my heartbeat to get over 130..what could kill me,so i cant count with the science to save myself now

I started doing small cuts by just passing the knife on skin,to see if the pain moderate my internal pain
Maybe i should go,she have the conditions to live..i cant be the shield that my father desire for my mom for long

i will do not update mom threat for now,sjhe is ok..in fact she is way better than me
