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 got some good news to share so maybe this will help you. The person I told you I stayed alive for I got to meet up again! We talked for a while and at the end she hugged me. She told me that we agree to be friends foreverHello Skylar,
You wrote : “I’m suffering a lot”…. "I experienced happiness so I know what it feels like but suffering is greater and some people suffer all their lives,…why…help I can’t take it all sometimes…”…”I feel like I am meant to suffer”. ” People don’t listen or understand". ” I’m ashamed of my messy life”.
There are many reasons why someone would say what you have and ultimately you are the only person who truly understands why. You wrote that “people don’t listen or understand” and I hope that I am not coming across like this, I like many of us here can only speak from our life experience. There have been many people who have offered good advice in these posts and all of us have experienced suffering and the emotions you are going through to some degree. This is all part of being human. From your perspective though at the moment you may not believe that.
From what you said, you think of killing yourself because of “the suffering in this world”, I am making a leap of faith to assume that there are no major physical health issues, so if I am wrong my apologies. Suffering has always been with us and you are right, it can be indiscriminate. We can choose as to how we respond as did Jesus and the apostles.
Others will offer the reason for our suffering as an original fall from grace and I know at times this can appear like an inadequate answer especially when it comes to the suffering of young children. I can’t give you a satisfying answer, however just when you think that all is lost there are those that will do something that is least expected to restore your belief in the goodness of others. You too, can be that person. All we here of is the evil in the world, never the good so maybe what you are seeing is a skewed picture of what is around you. There is a lot of good around us, although this doesn’t sell time on cable news.
Why do you believe that you are “meant to suffer”? You speak of your faith in God, hasn’t He already done this! Are you listening to what your mind is telling you about your circumstances / what is happening around you or are you listening to what God has to say about you? Do you believe the word of God if greater and more profound than what you can up with? If so, then listen to that rather than your current thinking. You said yourself that you have felt happiness and yet now you feel so awful, the question is can you trust what is in your mind?
You said that you were ashamed of your messy life. I know for myself that at times of deepest despair I turned to someone who had a lived experience of what it was like to go through what I was experiencing. Their lives were just as messy as mine and perhaps yours.
Talk to someone, keep on talking and hang in there.
Don't trust anyone! I trusted someone once and it failed. God knows your prayers. When I was a little kid I cried to God and God answered me. It took 10 years before God got around to me however at the time of the prayer being answered God reminded me the time when I was just a kid praying it!!!Satan tempts souls to commit suicide through his evil spirits preying on people of whom satan knows are at the time most vulnerable in order to claim their souls dragging them into hell as they are dying.
Therefore, one needs the following to combat satan and his evil spirits.
Jesus explained to His Disciples and His Followers that a house is cleaned and in order.
Then satan comes along and destroys the house messing it up. The house is cleaned and restored. Then satan comes along bringing 7 other evil spirits to mess that house up again, more powerful in his evil works.
Forgive me because i cannot recall which Holy Passage in Gods Holy Word Jesus explained in His Parables. The above are my words in summary not Jesus precise Holy Words.
Satan is working hard with his evil spirits to claim and drag souls to hell.
We all require protection constantly daily through Prayer from our hearts to Jesus, God, The Holy Spirit and to our Heavenly Mother Mary, Mother of God.
It assists more powerfully through and by God, to read God's Holy Word daily asking The Holy Spirit to illuminate our hearts.
It assists most greatly and powerfully by Jesus God and The Holy Spirit to repent sins to Jesus of which cleans our Souls for Jesus God and The Holy Spirit to work through our Hearts and Souls becoming closer to us one in Him.
We require our Blessed Virgin Mother Mary for Her Loving Holy Intercession.
Whether we believe or not.
Mother Mary combats satan and all evil spirits "If" a person is being prayed for to Jesus, The Holy Spirit and to Mother Mary, "if" a person turns to Jesus in complete trust, "If" a person is receiving His Blessed Holy Sacraments weekly, if a person asks for Jesus Loving assistance through repentance of sins to Him from hearts open to Him. Our Lords Blessed Holy Eucharist in Holy Communion and Confession.
We require Consecration of our Hearts to Jesus Sacred Heart daily if possible (and there are many prayers made with The Sign of The Cross) for Consecration of which Jesus delivered to His Saints/Nuns with Mother Mary), and Consecration to our Blessed Virgin Mother's Holy Immaculate Heart daily. Calling upon Jesus, God and The Holy Spirit and Mother Mary's Holy Saints in Heaven, Holy Angels in Heaven (ensure you say Holy Angels), to pray for your soul daily with a few Our Fathers and Hail Marys.
Wear The Holy Rosary Beads of Jesus, God's and our Blessed Virgin Mother Mary's daily and sleep with them placing them under your pillow and everywhere you go. Ask Jesus and Mother Mary with The Holy Spirit to Bless them making The Sign of The Cross and praying 3 Our Fathers, 3 Hail Marys and 3 Glory Be's if you cannot ask a Priest to Bless them for you through Jesus The Holy Spirit and Mother Mary. Satan cannot stand or be near Jesus on His Cross and satan detests The Holy Rosary and The Holy Rosary beads....because....God our Heavenly Father devised The Most Holy Rosary Himself and Gifted our Blessed Virgin Mother Mary with Her Most Holy Rosary, then Jesus and Mother Mary together appeared to Saint Dominic in 1214 and 1216 and to another Priest admonishing him for not spreading The Holy Rosary far and wide to mankind and not preaching The Holy Rosary to other Catholics Priests and Parishioners to pray as "The Greatest Weapon against Satan" are God's Holy Words Himself and "Man's Last Mean/s of Salvation".
To wear Jesus on His Cross, to wear Mother Mary's Holy Miraculous Medal of which was delivered by Jesus and Mother Mary with The Holy Spirit to Saint Simon Stock for him to design and distribute.
The Holy Scapulas were designed and distributed after Jesus and Mother Mary appeared to their Saints for Soul protection and salvation eternally for mankind.
i urge and implore you to visit a Catholic or Christian Bookshop or order online Jesus and Mother Marys Holy Scapulas and Holy Miraculous Medal and ask a Priest in Jesus and The Holy Spirits Holy Will with Mother Mary to Bless all Holy items urgently or ask Jesus and Mother Mary to Bless them at the time of purchase making The Sign of The Cross to Jesus in complete trust.
If you PM me with your first name i will include you to Jesus The Holy Spirit and Mother Mary in Her Most Holy Rosary of which is heard and answered daily by Jesus The Holy Spirit and Mother Mary for....every person/soul and every Holy Cause Jesus/God/The Holy Spirit and Mother Mary have me praying for - with all of the Glory Yours my Jesus, God and The Holy Spirit and my love and gratitude to Thee Mother Mary now and for eternity.
The greatest Holy Blessed Gift God has bestowed upon His People, Mankind and few pray The Most Holy Rosary to Jesus, God, The Holy Spirit and to our Blessed Virgin Mother of God...and if only people knew to focus on Jesus Himself, His Sorrows, His Sufferings and His Bitter Passion of which Jesus explains to Saint Bridget, to Saint Marie Marthe Chambon, to St Faustina, to Saint Catherine Ann Emerich, to Saint Therese, to Saint Padre Pio, to so many of His Saints and Martyrs in order for us to open our hearts in trust to Him, for us to be led to say sorry to Jesus daily and weekly, for the cleansing of our souls with Jesus forgiving us and receiving His Mercy now and at the hour of death. The Holy Mysteries within The Most Holy Rosary are Gods Holy Word!!
"Not everyone who says Jesus this and Jesus that is with God." - The Holy BibleIf you are anti Catholic and Catholics and to receive our Lords Blessed Holy Sacraments within His Catholic Church then i urge you to pray to Jesus, God and The Holy Spirit His Holy Wound Chaplet of which does not contain The Creed.
Jesus delivered His Holy Wound Chaplet to Saint Marie Marthe Chambon one of His many hundreds of Nuns/Saints in the early 1900s. Jesus explained to immerse our hearts and souls in His Sacred Holy Wounds with our ailments for Him to heal us and to implore and ask God our Heavenly Father with The Holy Spirit and through Mother Mary for God to assist us and for the causes we pray, through Jesus Bitter Passion, in Virtue of Jesus Bitter Passion and in Virtue of Jesus Sorrows, Agonies, Torments, Sufferings, Sacred Holy Wounds and Precious Holy Blood.
Saint Marie Chambon
Saint Catherine Ann Emmerich
Saint Bridget
These Holy Blessed Saints recorded what Jesus said to them on so many occasions through their Chapels, Convents, Churches and Rooms along with many other Nuns/Saints delivering His Holy Prayers from Himself and God our Heavenly Father for soul salvation and to pray for all the Holy Souls in Purgatory, for souls on their way to eternal damnation, for the sick and dying souls, for the afflicted souls (Jesus requests this of me daily most greatly), for souls committing vile and atrocious acts, many of His Holy Requests made to Saint Faustina and to His Saints/Nuns through our Blessed Virgin Mother Mary with Him/Jesus.
